Background: Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are at high risk for coronary artery disease. We investigate the trends and outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) in patients with ESKD.

Methods: We utilized the United States Renal Data System [2010-2018] to include adult patients with ESKD on dialysis for at least 3 months who underwent PCI for SIHD.

Liver transplantation for homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia: a retrospective analysis from Chinese experience.

Orphanet J Rare Dis

January 2025

Department of Critical Liver Diseases, Liver Research Center, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.

Background: Homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia (HoFH) increases risk of premature cardiovascular events and cardiac death. In severe cases of HoFH, clinical signs and symptoms cannot be controlled well by non-surgical treatments, liver transplantation (LT) currently represents the viable option.

Method: To assess the clinical efficacy, prognosis, and optimal timing of LT for HoFH, a retrospective analysis was conducted on the preoperative, surgical conditions, and postoperative follow-up of children who received an LT for HoFH at the Beijing Friendship Hospital over the period from December 2014 to August 2022.

Introduction: Organ transplant recipients face a substantial risk of developing posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD). In over 90% of cases with B-cell PTLD following solid organ transplantation, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genome is promptly identified, usually within the initial year. A continuing discussion revolves around the efficacy of antiviral prophylaxis in mitigating the incidence of PTLD in solid organ transplant (SOT) patients.

Donor-derived GD2-specific CAR T cells in relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma.

Nat Med

January 2025

Department of Hematology/Oncology, Cell and Gene Therapy, Scientific Institute for Research, Hospitalization and Healthcare (IRCCS), Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, Rome, Italy.

Allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting disialoganglioside-GD2 (ALLO_GD2-CART01) could be a therapeutic option for patients with relapsed or refractory, high-risk neuroblastoma (r/r HR-NB) whose tumors did not respond to autologous GD2-CART01 or who have profound lymphopenia. We present a case series of five children with HR-NB refractory to more than three different lines of therapy who received ALLO_GD2-CART01 in a hospital exemption setting. Four of them had previously received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

The highly conserved PIWI-interacting RNA CRAPIR antagonizes PA2G4-mediated NF110-NF45 disassembly to promote heart regeneration in mice.

Nat Cardiovasc Res

January 2025

Department of Pharmacy at the Second Affiliated Hospital, and Department of Pharmacology at College of Pharmacy (The Key Laboratory of Cardiovascular Research, Ministry of Education; National Key Laboratory of Frigid Zone Cardiovascular Diseases), Harbin Medical University, Harbin, China.

Targeting the cardiomyocyte cell cycle is a promising strategy for heart repair following injury. Here, we identify a cardiac-regeneration-associated PIWI-interacting RNA (CRAPIR) as a regulator of cardiomyocyte proliferation. Genetic ablation or antagomir-mediated knockdown of CRAPIR in mice impairs cardiomyocyte proliferation and reduces heart regenerative potential.
