Uncontrolled asthma is Associated with Increased Visceral Adipose Tissue, Decreased Bone Mineral Content, and Reduced Exercise Capacity.
J Asthma Allergy
December 2024
Respiratory Medicine, University Hospital of Liège, Liège, Belgium.
Introduction: Physical inactivity due to shortness of breath is common among patients with uncontrolled asthma. We evaluated the body mass composition and exercise capacity of patients with poorly controlled asthma, despite maximal inhalation therapy.
Methods: We recruited 56 patients from the Asthma Clinic of the University Hospital of Liège between September 2020 and December 2023, and 14 healthy subjects.
A new human autologous hepatocyte/macrophage co-culture system that mimics drug-induced liver injury-like inflammation.

The development of in vitro hepatocyte cell culture systems is crucial for investigating drug-induced liver injury (DILI). One prerequisite for monitoring DILI related immunologic reactions is the extension of primary human hepatocyte (PHH) cultures towards the inclusion of macrophages. Therefore, we developed and characterized an autologous co-culture system of PHH and primary human hepatic macrophages (hepM) (CoC1).

J Med Case Rep
November 2024
Clinic for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery of the University Hospital Bonn, Venusberg Campus 1, 53127, Bonn, Germany.
Article Synopsis
- The case discusses a rare instance of bilateral traumatic sternoclavicular dislocations in a 27-year-old male cyclist who experienced significant injuries during a race.
- Immediate and collaborative surgical intervention was crucial for the patient's recovery, with the absence of complications noted during a 1-year follow-up.
- The report emphasizes the importance of comprehensive trauma management in complex cases, showcasing this injury's rarity and the effectiveness of quick transportation to specialized care facilities.
Shock wave damage from the ventral side in primary blast injury: An experimental study in pigs.
Injury
December 2024
Department of Traumatology and Critical Care Medicine, NDMC, 3-2 Namiki, Tokorozawa, Saitama 359-8513, Japan.
Aim/purpose: This study aimed to apply a shock wave from the ventral side of a pig and examine its effect to use the results for new body armor production for humans.
Methods: Seven male hybrid pigs were used. Each pig was placed under general anesthesia on the experimental table in a blast tube in the left lateral position to expose the front chest area, and shock waves generated by compressed air at 3.
Single-Cell Analysis of Bone-Marrow-Disseminated Tumour Cells.
Diagnostics (Basel)
September 2024
Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, School of Clinical Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China.
Article Synopsis
- Metastasis often targets the bones, where cancer cells from the primary tumor migrate to the bone marrow, leading to new tumor growth.
- Despite being responsible for the majority of cancer-related deaths, effective treatments for bone metastasis are lacking and primarily focus on palliative care.
- Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play a crucial role in this process by interacting with the bone marrow, where they can transform into disseminated tumor cells (DTCs), some of which may remain dormant while others can lead to further metastatic growth.
