Care-coordination platforms may optimize ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treatment delays. This study aimed to assess the impact of Stenoa use on treatment delays in STEMI patients. We conducted a retrospective cohort study on local STEMI cases for the period between September 2020 and March 2023, comparing the times from first medical contact to device, before vs after the implementation of the Stenoa platform by the catheterization laboratory (cath-lab) and emergency department. A total of 180 patients were included. Significant reductions were found in times from first medical contact to electrocardiogram, from electrocardiogram to cath-lab activation, and from cath-lab activation to cath-lab arrival ( = 0.02,  = 0.04, and  = 0.02, respectively), after the platform was implemented. These findings suggest that use of Stenoa reduces STEMI door-to-balloon-time components.

Combination immune checkpoint inhibitors (nivolumab and ipilimumab) are currently a first-line treatment for mesothelioma; however, not all patients respond. The efficacy of treatment is influenced by the tumor microenvironment. Murine mesothelioma tumors were irritated with various radiotherapy doses.

Background: Amyloid-β accumulation is a pivotal factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression. As treatment for AD has not been successful yet, the most effective approach lies in early diagnosis and the subsequent delay of disease progression. Hence, this study introduces a deep learning model to predict amyloid-β accumulation in the brain.

Saint James School of Medicine, Park Ridge, IL, USA.

Background: Oxidative stress is formed by a perturbation of redox homeostasis and linked to the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) [1]. This imbalance results in an abundance of free radicals that exceeds the antioxidant capacity. Xanthine oxidase (XO) is an enzyme responsible for producing uric acid through the metabolism of purine nucleotides, specifically hypoxanthine and xanthine to uric acid [2].

Department of Neurology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.

Background: While disease-modifying treatments that reduce Aβ have been recently approved by the FDA, the identification of novel therapeutic targets and strategies that target underlying mechanisms to delay the AD development are still needed. Abnormal brain energy homeostasis and mitochondria dysfunction are observed early in AD. Therefore, the development of treatments to restore these defects could be beneficial.

Background: Despite recent FDA approvement of disease-modifying treatments that reduce Aβ, the identification of novel therapeutic strategies that could delay the Alzheimer's disease (AD) development are needed. We identified and developed novel small molecule compounds that mildly inhibit mitochondrial complex I (MCI). Chronic treatment with a tool compound CP2 in 4 mouse models of familial AD was efficacious protecting against synaptic dysfunction and memory impairment, improving brain energetics and cognitive performance, reducing levels of human pTau and Ab.
