Testosterone, estradiol, hydrocortisone, total cholesterol, triglycerides, cholesterol of alpha-lipoproteins (alpha-CS) were estimated in blood plasma of 124 40--59 years old men examined in the course of an epidemyolodical study (representative selection). Content of insulin was estimated in 112 persons and of growth hormone--in 102 persons. Disbalance of steroid hormones (decrease in alpha-CS) was observed in men with one factor of risk of heart ischemic impairment. Occurrence of two factors of risk of heart ischemic impairment--hypertriglyceridemia and decrease in alpha-CS--was related not only to disbalance of steroid hormones but also to alteration in the ratio of protein hormones--insulin and growth hormone.

Treatment options for recurrent high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC) and muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) are limited, highlighting a need for clinically effective, accessible, and better-tolerated alternatives. In this review we examine the clinical development program of TAR-200, a novel targeted releasing system designed to provide sustained intravesical delivery of gemcitabine to address the needs of patients with NMIBC and of those with MIBC. We describe the concept and design of TAR-200 and the clinical development of this gemcitabine intravesical system in the SunRISe portfolio of studies.

Extracellular vesicles in dry eye disease and Sjogren syndrome: A systematic review on their diagnostic and therapeutic role.

Surv Ophthalmol

January 2025

Centre for Ocular Regeneration (CORE), L V Prasad Eye Institute, Hyderabad, Telangana, India; Prof. Krothapalli Ravindranath Ophthalmic Research Biorepository, LV Prasad Eye Institute, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), defined as membrane-bound vesicles released from all cells, are being explored for their diagnostic and therapeutic role in dry eye disease (DED). We systematically shortlisted 32 articles on the role of EVs in diagnosing and treating DED. The systematic review covers the progress in the last 2 decades about the classification and isolation of EVs and their role in DED.

January 2025

Department of Vascular Surgery, Chenzhou First People's Hospital and the First Affiliated, Hospital of Xiangnan University, Chenzhou, Hunan Province 423000, China. Electronic address:

Objective: This study sought to investigate the changes in plasma D-dimer levels during catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in patients with acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT), analyze imaging results, and assess their clinical implications.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 62 patients diagnosed with acute lower extremity DVT who underwent CDT between March 2019 and December 2022. Plasma D-dimer levels were measured before CDT, at regular intervals after CDT, and at the end of CDT.

Background: Non-functional adrenal incidentaloma (NFAI) is associated with increased risk of adverse cardiometabolic outcome. Identifying predictors of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) may enable more appropriate management strategies in patients with NFAI. We aimed to investigate body composition parameters and ASCVD risk in patients with NFAI.
