Background: Among cardiovascular diseases, adult patients with congenital heart disease represent a population that has been continuously increasing, which is mainly due to improvement of the pathophysiological framing, including the development of surgical and reanimation techniques. However, approximately 20% of these patients will require surgery in adulthood and 40% of these cases will necessitate reintervention for residual defects or sequelae of childhood surgery. In this field, cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in the postsurgical phase has an important impact on the patient by improving psychophysical and clinical recovery in reducing fatigue and dyspnea to ultimately increase survival.

Importance: The Walter Index is a widely used prognostic tool for assessing 12-month mortality risk among hospitalized older adults. Developed in the US in 2001, its accuracy in contemporary non-US contexts is unclear.
Objective: To evaluate the external validity of the Walter Index in predicting posthospitalization mortality risk in Brazilian older adult inpatients.

Importance: Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune disorder leading to skin depigmentation and reduced quality of life (QOL). Patients with extensive and very active disease are the most difficult to treat.
Objective: To assess the efficacy and adverse events of baricitinib combined with narrowband UV-B in adults with severe, active, nonsegmental vitiligo.

Skin regeneration, repair, and the promotion of hair growth are intricate and dynamic processes essential for preserving the overall health, functionality, and appearance of both skin and hair. These processes involve a coordinated interplay of cellular activities and molecular signaling pathways that ensure the maintenance and restoration of skin integrity and hair vitality. Recent advancements in regenerative medicine have underscored the significant role of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes as key mediators in these processes.

Perinatal white matter injury (WMI), which is prevalent in premature infants, involves M2 microglia affecting oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) through exosomes, promoting OPC growth and reducing WMI. The molecular mechanism of WMI remains unclear, and this study explored the role of M2 microglia-derived exosomes in WMI. A tMCAO rat model was constructed to simulate WMI characteristics in vivo.
