DIVERT-Ca: unveiling the hidden link between acute diverticulitis and colorectal cancer risk-multicentre retrospective study.

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide, accounting for approximately 10% of all malignancies. Emerging trends of association with risk factors such as diverticulitis highlight the need for updated screening and follow-up protocols. We aimed to examine risk factors associated with the development of CRC within 12 months following an episode of acute diverticulitis, and identify areas to streamline follow-up.

Predictive Value of the Naples Prognostic Score for One-Year Mortality in NSTEMI Patients Undergoing Selective PCI.

Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is a common and severe condition that requires rapid and accurate risk assessment and treatment. The Naples prognostic score (NPS) is a novel risk score that integrates nutritional and inflammatory parameters. The aim of this study was to investigate the NPS as a predictor of one-year mortality in NSTEMI patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Comparative electromagnetic shielding performance of TiCT-PVA composites in various structural forms: compact films, hydrogels, and aerogels.

The structural design of light-weight MXene-polymer composites has attracted significant interest for enhancing both electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance and mechanical strength, which are critical for practical applications. However, a systematic understanding of how various structural configurations of MXene composites affect EMI shielding is lacking. In this study, light-weight TiCT-PVA composites were fabricated in three structural forms, hydrogel, aerogel, and compact film, while varying the TiCT areal density (14 to 20 mg cm) to elucidate the role of structural design in X-band EMI shielding and mechanical properties.

The Australian-New Zealand spontaneous coronary artery dissection cohort study: predictors of major adverse cardiovascular events and recurrence.

Background And Aims: Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an increasingly recognized cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Recent data suggest a harmful association of dual antiplatelet therapy compared with single antiplatelet therapy following SCAD. This study investigated independent predictors of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and recurrence in patients with SCAD.
