Article Synopsis
  • - The COVID Moonshot was a collaborative, open-science effort focused on finding a new drug to inhibit the SARS-CoV-2 main protease, which is crucial for the virus's survival.
  • - Researchers developed a novel noncovalent, nonpeptidic inhibitor that stands out from existing drugs targeting the same protease, employing advanced techniques like machine learning and high-throughput structural biology.
  • - Over 18,000 compound designs, 490 ligand-bound x-ray structures, and extensive assay data were generated and shared openly, creating a comprehensive and accessible knowledge base for future drug discovery efforts against coronaviruses.

Article Synopsis
  • Advances in health care are being driven by 21st-century technologies like artificial intelligence, computational simulations, and extended reality, collectively referred to as AISER.
  • AISER is being applied in cardiovascular therapies for preprocedural planning, virtual clinical trials, and training health care professionals.
  • The review also addresses challenges related to AISER's implementation and highlights the collaboration needed among various experts to enhance its use in cardiovascular medicine.

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is an uncommon renal presentation in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and as such, there is no standard therapy for these patients. A few cases of MN in CLL have been described with varying success in MN treatment involving alkylating agents and fludarabine. Here we report the first case of MN in a patient with CLL treated with ibrutinib with complete renal response.

Purpose: Systemic chemotherapy including monotherapy with temozolomide (TMZ) or bevacizumab (BEV); two-drug combinations, such as irinotecan (IRI) and BEV, TMZ and BEV and a three-drug combination with TMZ, IRI and BEV (TIB) have been used in treating patients with progressive high-grade gliomas including glioblastoma (GBM). Most patients tolerated these regimens well with known side effects of hypertension, proteinuria, and reversible clinical myelosuppression (CM). However, organ- or system- specific toxicities from chemotherapy agents have never been examined by postmortem study.
