Background: Postoperative lung cancer patients belong to the high-risk group for venous thromboembolism (VTE). The standardized preventive measures for perioperative VTE in lung cancer are not perfect, especially for the prevention and treatment of catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) caused by carried central venous catheters (CVCs) in lung cancer surgery.

Patients And Methods: This study included 460 patients with lung cancer undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in our center from July 2020 to June 2021.

Restenosis is a severe complication after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty which limits the long-term efficacy of the intervention. In this study, we investigated the efficiency of exosomes derived from AT2R-overexpressing bone mesenchymal stem cells on the prevention of restenosis after carotid artery injury. Our data showed that AT2R-EXO promoted the proliferation and migration of vascular endothelial cells and maintained the ratio of eNOS/iNOS.

Background: Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid management, hardly any of the existing studies on statin treatment of dyslipidemia in nephrotic syndrome (NS) addressed patient-centered outcomes of cardiovascular events.

Objective: To evaluate whether statin treatment impacts the outcomes of cardiovascular events in patients with NS.

Design: A single-center, retrospective, nested case-control study analyzed data from the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the problem of restenosis after angioplasty, which results from endothelial injury and leads to excessive growth of vascular smooth muscle cells.
  • Researchers aimed to explore whether exosomes from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-Exo) could inhibit neointimal hyperplasia in a rat model following carotid artery injury, investigating their mechanisms.
  • Results indicated that MSC-Exo were taken up by endothelial cells, reduced neointimal hyperplasia, and enhanced re-endothelialization, as shown by various staining and immunohistochemistry methods.
