Cardio-renal syndrome (CRS) is a complex condition involving bidirectional dysfunction of the heart and kidneys, in which the failure of one organ exacerbates failure in the other. Traditional pharmacologic treatments are often insufficient to manage the hemodynamic and neurohormonal abnormalities underlying CRS, especially in cases resistant to standard therapies. Device-based therapies have emerged as a promising adjunct or alternative approach, offering targeted intervention to relieve congestion, improve renal perfusion, and modulate hemodynamics.

Vestibular Hypofunction (VH) and hearing loss can affect quality of life and lead to disability, especially in the elderly. Studies investigating presbycusis and vestibular function in the aging population have been conducted separately, but few have examined the combination of both conditions in older patients, with inconsistent results that may be due to small sample sizes or heterogeneity in the methods used to assess vestibular function. We aimed to characterize the occurrence of VH in patients with presbycusis using the video head impulse test (vHIT), which is a specific and reliable assessment tool for VH.

After enrollment, previously proposed actigraphic quantitative criteria were adopted, and the following phenotypes of insomnia disorder were observed in the patient sample: sleep onset ( = 12), maintenance ( = 19), mixed ( = 17), and negative misperception ( = 19).

Hypokinesia triggers oxidative stress and accelerates the turnover of the glutathione system via the γ-glutamyl cycle. Our study aimed to identify the regulatory checkpoints controlling intracellular glutathione levels. We measured the intermediate substrates of the γ-glutamyl cycle in erythrocytes from 19 healthy young male volunteers before and during a 10-day experimental bed rest.
