Impact of Tafamidis on [Tc]Tc-pyrophosphate Scintigraphy in Ala97Ser Hereditary Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: significant initial reduction with stable Long-Term effects.
Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Cardiology, National Taiwan University Hospital and National Taiwan University College of Medicine, Taipei, Taiwan.
Objective: Tafamidis has shown potential in slowing disease progression in patients with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). This study aimed to evaluate serial changes on [Tc]Tc-pyrophosphate (PYP) scintigraphy during tafamidis treatment for hereditary ATTR-CM.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed a prospectively collected cohort of Ala97Ser (A97S) hereditary ATTR-CM patients treated with tafamidis (61 mg/day) and a control group comprising A97S hereditary ATTR-CM patients who had not received disease-modifying medications.
Effects of population-based screening for atrial fibrillation on quality of life.
Eur J Intern Med
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Copenhagen University Hospital - Rigshospitalet, Inge Lehmanns Vej 7, 2100, Copenhagen, Denmark. Electronic address:
Background: Screening for atrial fibrillation is rising and may worsen or improve quality of life.
Methods: We assessed quality of life (EQ-5D-5L) data in 6,004 participants with stroke risk factors randomised to usual care (n=4,503) or implantable loop recorder with anticoagulation upon detection of atrial fibrillation (n=1,501). Five domains (mobility, selfcare, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression) each scored from one to five were calculated into individual index scores (worst=-0.
Long-term outcome of oesophageal atresia in adolescence (TransEAsome): a national French cohort study protocol.
BMJ Open
January 2025
Univ. Lille, Inserm, CHU Lille, U1286 - INFINITE - Institute for Translational Research in Inflammation, F-59000, Lille.
Introduction: The project, funded by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche, aims to evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients with oesophageal atresia (OA) between 13 and 14 years old and establish multiomics profiles using data from the world's biggest OA registry.
Methods And Analysis: is a national multicentre population-based cohort study recruiting participants from all qualified French centres for OA surgery at birth. The primary objective is to assess the prevalence of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease in adolescence among patients with OA, with several secondary objectives including the identification of risk factors and multiomic profiles from oesophageal biopsies and blood samples collected between 13 and 14 years old, compared with a control group.
Global regional and national burden of cataract attributable to high body mass index from 1990 to 2019.
BMJ Open
January 2025
Department of Cataract, Shuozhou Aier Eye Hospital, Shuozhou, China
Objectives: In order to estimate long-term trends of the years lived with disability (YLDs) for cataract due to high body mass index (BMI).
Design And Participants: Data were retrieved from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019. The global cases, age-standardised rates (ASR) of YLDs for cataract attributable to high BMI were described by age, sex, geographical location and sociodemographic index (SDI).
Long-term Outcomes of Definitive Chemoradiation with Proton Therapy for Treatment of Carcinoma of the Anal Canal: Combined Analysis of Two Prospective Trials.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys
January 2025
Department of Radiation Oncology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA. Electronic address:
Purpose/objective(s): While definitive chemoradiation (CRT) with 5-FU/MMC remains the standard of care for localized anal cancer, treatment is associated with significant acute and late toxicity. Proton radiation therapy (RT) may potentially reduce such toxicity. Here, we assess the long-term outcomes of anal cancer patients treated with CRT using proton RT in two prospective pilot studies.
