Between 1992 and 2000 in the group of the patients before heart transplantation, amiodarone induced thyrotoxicosis occurred in 5 (4 male and 1 female, average age 45.5 years) patients. In four of the patients of that group orthotopic heart transplantation was done. Postoperative period in the patients with euthyreosis was uncomplicated. One patient died after HTx because of thyroid crisis.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in many medical specialties. However, nephrology has lagged in adopting and incorporating machine learning techniques. Nephrology is well positioned to capitalize on the benefits of AI.

Diabetic wounds present a significant challenge in regenerative medicine due to impaired healing, characterized by prolonged inflammation and deficient tissue repair, primarily caused by a skewed pro-inflammatory macrophage phenotype. This study investigates the therapeutic potential of interleukin-10 (IL-10) chemically modified mRNA (modRNA)-enriched human adipose-derived multipotent stromal cells (hADSCs) in a well-established murine model of diabetic wounds. The modRNAs used in this study were chemically modified using N1-methylpseudouridine-5'-triphosphate (m1Ψ) by substituting uridine-5-triphosphate.

Background: Hormone therapies, including aromatase inhibitors and tamoxifen, are used with ovarian suppression to improve outcomes in premenopausal patients with breast cancer. Cardiovascular impacts of these treatments among premenopausal women are unknown.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that the use of aromatase inhibitors in combination with ovarian suppression, relative to tamoxifen, is associated with greater incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in premenopausal breast cancer survivors.

Background And Aims: Overweight and obesity are modifiable risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in the general population, but their prevalence in individuals with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia (HeFH) and whether they confer additional risk of ASCVD independent of LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) remains unclear.
Methods: Cross-sectional analysis was conducted in 35 540 patients with HeFH across 50 countries, in the EAS FH Studies Collaboration registry. Prevalence of World Health Organization-defined body mass index categories was investigated in adults (n = 29 265) and children/adolescents (n = 6275); and their association with prevalent ASCVD.

Aims: The association of telomere length (TL) and coronary heart disease (CHD) is still debated, and there is a lack of dose-response meta-analyses on this issue. The aim is therefore to integrate existing evidence on the association between TL and CHD risk and explore the dose-response relationship between them.
Data Synthesis: PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science were searched for relevant studies up to September 2024.
