Plasma volume status (PVS) is a noninvasive estimate of intravascular volume status. We studied the utility of PVS to predict short-term outcomes in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Patients with lower PVS had decreased risk of hospitalization and death within 90 days of clinic visit, compared to those with higher PVS.

It is believed that aneuploid embryos release cell-free DNA (cfDNA) into the blastocyst cavity during the self-correction process through the apoptotic mechanism. This study aimed to develop less invasive methods for predicting ploidy status by investigating how ploidy status affects blastocoel fluid DNA (BF-DNA) levels and apoptotic gene expression as indicators of embryo viability. Human blastocysts were classified into three groups; Survivable Embryo (SE), Fatal Single and double Aneuploidy (FSDA), and Multiple Aneuploidy (MA) using array comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) by trophectoderm (TE) biopsy.

Neurodegeneration is presumed to be the pathological process measure most proximal to clinical symptom onset in Alzheimer Disease (AD). Structural MRI is routinely collected in research and clinical trial settings. Several quantitative MRI-based measures of atrophy have been proposed, but their low correspondence with each other has been previously documented.

Background: Several modifiable risk factors for dementia and related neurodegenerative diseases have been identified including education level, socio-economic status, and environmental exposures - however, how these population-level risks relate to individual risk remains elusive. To address this, we assess over 450 potential risk factors in one deeply clinically and demographically phenotyped cohort using random forest classifiers to determine predictive markers of poor cognitive function. This study aims to understand early risk factors for dementia by identifying predictors of poor cognitive performance amongst a comprehensive battery of imaging, blood, atmospheric pollutant and socio-economic measures.

Aim: Locally advanced colon cancer (LACC) often necessitates complex prognosis-determining treatment. This study investigated the impact of hospital volume on short- and long-term outcomes following surgery for LACC.

Method: Data involving all patients with LACC categorized as clinical T4 and/or N2, between 2015 and 2019 in the Netherlands, were extracted from the Netherlands Cancer Registry.

Background: With an increasing prevalence of frailty among older adults, effective classification and management strategies for frailty have become imperative. Voice biomarkers, offering insights into the overall health status of older adults, hold promise for enhancing the management of this multifaceted geriatric syndrome.

Objectives: This scoping review aims to consolidate existing knowledge regarding the relationship between frailty and voice biomarkers.
