Demographic-Based Personalized Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Thresholds for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Diagnosis.
J Am Coll Cardiol
December 2024
Barts Heart Centre, Barts Health NHS Trust, West Smithfield, London, United Kingdom; Institute of Cardiovascular Science, University College London, London, United Kingdom.
Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a leading cause of sudden cardiac death. Current diagnosis emphasizes the detection of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) using a fixed threshold of ≥15-mm maximum wall thickness (MWT). This study proposes a method that considers individual demographics to adjust LVH thresholds as an alternative to a 1-size-fits-all approach.

Neuromodulation
January 2025
Bakken Research Center, Maastricht, The Netherlands. Electronic address:
Background: Stimulating diuresis is crucial in heart failure (HF) treatment. Diuretic resistance develops in approximately 30% to 45% of patients with HF.
Objective: We investigated the feasibility and safety of lateral epidural stimulation (LES) to enhance diuresis by stimulating renal afferent sensory nerves.
Interim Analysis of a Prospective Polysomnographic Study of Weighted Blankets in Patients with Psychophysiological Insomnia.
Psychiatry Clin Psychopharmacol
December 2024
Sleep and Disorders Unit, Division of Clinical Neurophysiology, Department of Neurology, Cerrahpasa Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa, İstanbul, Türkiye.
Background: Weighted blankets have recently introduced in the treatment on insomnia as a nonpharmacological integrative therapy. Here we prospectively evaluated the effects of weighted blankets on the sleep structure and heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with primary psychophysiological insomnia.
Methods: In this prospective polysomnographic (PSG) study between August 2021 and August 2022, patients were given weighted blankets (~10% of body weight) to use at home for 10 nights consecutively.
Avian Reovirus: From Molecular Biology to Pathogenesis and Control.
Viruses
December 2024
Southeast Poultry Research Laboratory, U.S. National Poultry Research Center, United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS), Athens, GA 30605, USA.
Avian reoviruses (ARVs) represent a significant economic burden on the poultry industry due to their widespread prevalence and potential pathogenicity. These viruses, capable of infecting a diverse range of avian species, can lead to a variety of clinical manifestations, most notably tenosynovitis/arthritis. While many ARV strains are asymptomatic, pathogenic variants can cause severe inflammation and tissue damage in organs such as the tendons, heart, and liver.

Sensors (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Psychology, University of Turin, 10124 Turin, Italy.
This study examines the relationship between cognitive and affective flexibility, two critical aspects of adaptability. Cognitive flexibility involves switching between activities as rules change, assessed through task-switching or neuropsychological tests and questionnaires. Affective flexibility, meanwhile, refers to shifting between emotional and non-emotional tasks or states.
