The authors of this study used the method of increased stimulus rate on brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) in 30 patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) and in an equal number of healthy age-matched control subjects. The BAEPs were recorded using 100- to 3000-Hz alternating polarity clicks at a rate of 22.6 per second. Measurements included the absolute latencies of waves I through V, the interpeak latencies I-III, III-V, and I-V, and the peak amplitudes of peaks I, III, and V. The measured absolute latencies and interpeak latencies were found to be significantly increased, and the peak amplitudes were found to be diminished. The audiometric tests revealed no significant hearing loss in IHD patients. This study is the first to demonstrate prolongation of BAEPs in IHD patients. BAEP recording may become an additional noninvasive tool for detecting IHD patients with impaired microcirculation.

Background: 46, XY disorders of sex development (DSD) are a group of highly heterogeneous conditions in which the molecular etiology remains unknown in a significant proportion of patients, even with massive parallel sequencing. Clinically significant copy number variants (CNVs) are identified in 20-30% of cases, particularly among those with gonadal dysgenesis (GD) and no molecular diagnosis.

Methods: Fourteen patients with 46, XY DSD due to GD in whom no pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants were found on next-generation sequencing using a targeted panel of 155 genes were screened for clinically significant CNVs using Affymetrix Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH).

Introduction: Previous studies highlighted the association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes. However, whether diabetes affects TyG-cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is still unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the TyG index and CVD risk, stratified by diabetes status, as well as the potential modifying effect of diabetic status.

Iberdomide, a novel potent cereblon E3 ligase modulator, is under investigation for multiple myeloma. This study assessed how renal impairment (RI) affects iberdomide pharmacokinetics (PK). Twenty-six subjects with varying renal function, including those with severe renal impairment and those requiring intermittent hemodialysis (IHD), received a single oral 1 mg dose of iberdomide.

Background: The relationship between inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and the risk of ischemic heart diseases (IHD) remains a subject of debate. In this study, we sought to investigate the association between IBD and long-term risk of IHD in a substantial cohort of IBD patients.

Methods: In this retrospective cohort study we utilized data from a state-mandated provider in Israel (Maccabi Healthcare Services).
