Objective: The Heat Shock Protein 70 (HSP70) family is a highly conserved group of molecular chaperones essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. These proteins are necessary for protein folding, assembly, and degradation and involve cell recovery from stress conditions. HSP70 proteins are upregulated in response to heat shock, oxidative stress, and pathogenic infections.

Moreover, the usage of structured reporting using LI-RADS and mRECIST was surveyed and the results were compared with a survey from 2020.Radiologists working in outpatient or inpatient care in Germany were invited.

Methods: Design: Prospective, randomized clinical trial.
Setting: Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery Unit.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence of motion artifacts and image quality of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T1-weighted imaging applying 3D motion correction via the Scout Accelerated Motion Estimation and Reduction (SAMER) framework compared with conventional T1-weighted imaging at 1.5 T.
Materials And Methods: A preliminary study involving 14 healthy volunteers assessed the impact of the SAMER framework on induced motion during 3 T MRI scans.
Aims: This study aimed to identify key factors with the greatest influence on glycaemic outcomes in young individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and very elevated glycaemia after 3 months of automated insulin delivery (AID).
Materials And Methods: Data were combined and analysed from two separate and previously published studies with similar inclusion criteria assessing AID (MiniMed 780G) efficacy among young individuals naïve to AID (aged 7-25 years) with glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≥69 mmol/mol (≥8.5%).
