Objective: To verify clinical observations by the epidemiological method.
Material And Methods: The data of the full investigation of 1781 schizophrenia cases, including 403 patients in the age of 60 and older were used.
Results And Conclusion: A number of characteristics inherent for this group were fully consistent with clinical observations. These characteristics were connected with a few factors: probability to reach the old age for patients with young onset schizophrenia; probability to stay under psychiatric care for patients with long disease duration; characteristics of certain forms of schizophrenia and probability of the onset of some symptoms in elderly patients. A combined effect of these factors resulted in the development of some common features of schizophrenia with late-onset, i.e. the rarity of malignant schizophrenia and high frequency of depressive disorders. The author underlines the vagueness of the notion «late schizophrenia».

Myocardial Fibroblast Activation After Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Positron Emission Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Study.
J Am Coll Cardiol
November 2024
British Heart Foundation Centre of Research Excellence, the University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom.
Background: Myocardial fibrosis is a key healing response after myocardial infarction driven by activated fibroblasts. Gallium-68-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor ([Ga]-FAPI) is a novel positron-emitting radiotracer that binds activated fibroblasts.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the intensity, distribution, and time-course of fibroblast activation after acute myocardial infarction.
The Nonsyndromic Ascending Thoracic Aorta in a Population-Based Setting: A 5-Year Prospective Cohort Study.
J Am Coll Cardiol
November 2024
Elite Centre for Individualized Medicine in Arterial Disease, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark; Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark; Department of Clinical Research, University of Southern Denmark, Odense, Denmark.
Background: Prospective data on the clinical course of the ascending thoracic aorta are lacking.
Objectives: This study sought to estimate growth rates of the ascending aorta and to evaluate occurrences of adverse aortic events (AAEs)-that is, thoracic aortic ruptures, type A aortic dissections, and thoracic aortic-related deaths.
Methods: In this prospective cohort study from the population-based, multicenter, randomized DANCAVAS (Danish Cardiovascular Screening trials) I and II, participants underwent cardiovascular risk assessments including electrocardiogram-gated, noncontrast computed tomography (CT) scans.

Background: Aircraft noise is a growing concern for communities living near airports.
Objectives: This study aimed to explore the impact of aircraft noise on heart structure and function.
Methods: Nighttime aircraft noise levels (L) and weighted 24-hour day-evening-night aircraft noise levels (L) were provided by the UK Civil Aviation Authority for 2011.
Rectangular Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Monophasic vs Biphasic Stimulation for Major Depressive Disorder: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial.
Neuromodulation
January 2025
Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Weill Institute for Neurosciences, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, USA.
Objectives: Biphasic sinusoidal repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment that has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Recent advances suggest that standard rTMS may be improved by altering the pulse shape; however, there is a paucity of research investigating pulse shape, owing primarily to the technologic limitations of currently available devices. This pilot study examined the feasibility, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of biphasic and monophasic rectangular rTMS for TRD.

Department of Hematology, Chongqing University Three Gorges Hospital, Chongqing, China.
Background: This study was designed to determine the effects of acceptance and commitment care in the treatment of aplastic anemia (AA) patients with recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO).
Methods: The clinical records of 100 AA patients treated at our hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were analyzed in the retrospective study. All patients received immunosuppressants and rhTPO.
