Pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) is a complex condition in which 2 consequential diseases interact and increase negative outcomes. Although the pathophysiologic mechanisms of PH-ILD are not yet well understood, the pronounced effect on functional status, supplemental oxygen requirements, health care resource utilization, and mortality that frequently accompany this diagnosis are well documented. A critical feature that complicates pathophysiologic understanding of PH-ILD is that progression of the pulmonary vascular disease does not always appear to be driven by the underlying lung disease.

As the healthcare burden caused by an increasingly aging population rapidly rises, a pressing need exists for innovative geroscience research that can elucidate aging mechanisms and precipitate the development of therapeutic interventions to support healthy aging. The Fifth Annual Midwest Aging Consortium Aging Research symposium, held from April 28-30, 2024, was hosted by The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio and featured presentations from investigators across the Midwestern United States. This report summarizes the research presented at the symposium, whose topics included cellular senescence and the aging brain, metabolism and metabolic interventions, nutrition, redox mechanisms and biomarkers, and stress mechanisms.

Article Synopsis
  • There is a significant risk of reinforcing existing health inequalities in AI health technologies due to biases, primarily stemming from the datasets used.
  • The STANDING Together recommendations focus on transparency in health datasets and proactive evaluation of their impacts on different population groups, informed by a comprehensive research process with over 350 global contributors.
  • The 29 recommendations are divided into guidance for documenting health datasets and strategies for using them, aiming to identify and reduce algorithmic biases while promoting awareness of the inherent limitations in all datasets.

Intimal sarcoma of the aortic valve and ascending aorta: a case report.

J Thorac Dis

November 2024

Department of Cardiac Surgery, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.

Background: Intimal sarcomas are rare tumors that typically affect the major vessels, such as the pulmonary artery and aorta, and are associated with a particularly poor prognosis. Intimal sarcomas found in the aorta are most commonly located in the abdominal section between the celiac artery and the iliac bifurcation. The descending aorta is involved in 30% of cases, while involvement of the ascending aorta is rare.
