Under the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA), current federal policy mandates a lifetime ban for individuals with a past felony drug conviction from receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) benefits. Denying nutritional and financial assistance to individuals with a past felony conviction will widen existing structural health inequities, set back individuals' successful re-entry into society, and contribute to recidivism and poorer health outcomes. Therefore, the Society of Behavioral Medicine supports the RESTORE ACT (Re-Entry Support Through Opportunities for Resources and Essentials Act), which would repeal the lifetime ban on receiving SNAP and TANF benefits for individuals convicted of a drug felony.

"Bottoms-up" portal venous recanalization TIPS (PVR-TIPS) utilizing a re-entry catheter.
CVIR Endovasc
December 2024
Department of Gastroenterology, Medical University Innsbruck, Anichstrasse 35, Innsbruck, 6020, Austria.
Background: Three patients with portal hypertension and gastrointestinal bleeding due to non-cirrhotic portal vein thrombosis were treated with portal venous recanalization transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (PVR-TIPS) via a trans-splenic access.
Main Body: A "bottoms-up" retrograde puncture of the right hepatic vein was performed using a re-entry catheter to gain access to the right hepatic vein. In all patients a successful retrograde puncture of the right hepatic vein was achieved, thereby restoring the splenoportal tract.
LncRNA evf-2 Exacerbates Podocyte Injury in Diabetic Nephropathy by Inducing Cell Cycle Re-entry and Inflammation Through Distinct Mechanisms Triggered by hnRNPU.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 () is a master regulator of the G2-M transition between DNA replication and cell division. This study investigates the regulation of cardiomyocyte (CM) proliferation during the early neonatal period and following ischemic injury in adult mice. We analyzed cell cycle dynamics with the assessment of DNA synthesis, and cytokinesis in murine hearts during the first 15 days after birth.

Article Synopsis
- The rise of advanced microcatheters has improved the success rates of complex heart procedures, but their use can lead to significant complications.
- A case study highlighted a serious incident where a Turnpike Spiral catheter tip fractured, causing a blockage in the right coronary artery despite its tortuous and calcified nature.
- To resolve the blockage, a specialized technique called antegrade dissection and re-entry was used, successfully restoring blood flow and avoiding a heart attack by placing stents after navigating around the fractured tip.
Mechanisms of Mitral Isthmus Reconnection After Ablation With and Without Vein of Marshall Ethanol Infusion.
JACC Clin Electrophysiol
November 2024
Division of Cardiac Electrophysiology, Houston Methodist DeBakey Heart and Vascular Center, Houston, Texas, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Reconnection of the mitral isthmus (MI) is common after radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Vein of Marshall ethanol infusion (VOMEI) expedites MI ablation, but long-term results are unclear.
Objectives: This study sought to determine anatomic substrates of failed MI ablation, with and without VOMEI.
