Tau, a microtubule-associated protein, is known for its significant involvement in neurodegenerative diseases. While various molecular and immunohistochemical techniques have confirmed the presence of Tau in podocytes, its precise function within these cells remains elusive. In this study, we investigate the role of Tau in kidney podocytes using Drosophila pericardial nephrocytes as a model.

Background: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has been suggested to play paradoxical roles in patients with heart failure. The role of EAT in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients remains unclear. We aimed to assess the associations between the dynamic changes EAT and left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) in DCM patients based on baseline and follow-up CMR.

Background: Changes in myocardial fat in addition to changes in cardiac structure and function have not been accurately evaluated in obese patients following surgery.
Materials And Methods: Forty-four obese patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy and completed preoperative and postoperative cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery were enrolled, and their clinical and laboratory data were collected. The differences and correlations between clinical, laboratory, and CMR parameters between the preoperative and postoperative groups were analysed.

Article Synopsis
- The bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a serious complication that can occur after pneumonectomy, often addressed through various surgical buttressing techniques to improve healing.
- A review of literature on this topic included 27 articles, but only 16 were suitable for analysis due to factors like small sample sizes and irrelevant surgical procedures.
- The results indicated that three studies found significant benefits of using bronchial stump buttressing to reduce BPF risk, while the rest provided descriptive statistics or assessed blood perfusion in the tissue used.
