Dark-blood late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) has been shown to improve the visualization and quantification of areas of ischemic scar compared to standard bright-blood LGE. Recently, the performance of various semi-automated quantification methods has been evaluated for the assessment of infarct size using both dark-blood LGE and conventional bright-blood LGE with histopathology as a reference standard. However, the impact of this sequence on different quantification strategies in vivo remains uncertain. In this study, various semi-automated scar quantification methods were evaluated for a range of different ischemic and non-ischemic pathologies encountered in clinical practice. A total of 62 patients referred for clinical cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) were retrospectively included. All patients had a confirmed diagnosis of either ischemic heart disease (IHD; n = 21), dilated/non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM; n = 21), or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM; n = 20) and underwent CMR on a 1.5 T scanner including both bright- and dark-blood LGE using a standard PSIR sequence. Both methods used identical sequence settings as per clinical protocol, apart from the inversion time parameter, which was set differently. All short-axis LGE images with scar were manually segmented for epicardial and endocardial borders. The extent of LGE was then measured visually by manual signal thresholding, and semi-automatically by signal thresholding using the standard deviation (SD) and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) methods. For all quantification methods in the IHD group, except the 6 SD method, dark-blood LGE detected significantly more enhancement compared to bright-blood LGE (p < 0.05 for all methods). For both bright-blood and dark-blood LGE, the 6 SD method correlated best with manual thresholding (16.9% vs. 17.1% and 20.1% vs. 20.4%, respectively). For the NICM group, no significant differences between LGE methods were found. For bright-blood LGE, the 5 SD method agreed best with manual thresholding (9.3% vs. 11.0%), while for dark-blood LGE the 4 SD method agreed best (12.6% vs. 11.5%). Similarly, for the HCM group no significant differences between LGE methods were found. For bright-blood LGE, the 6 SD method agreed best with manual thresholding (10.9% vs. 12.2%), while for dark-blood LGE the 5 SD method agreed best (13.2% vs. 11.5%). Semi-automated LGE quantification using dark-blood LGE images is feasible in both patients with ischemic and non-ischemic scar patterns. Given the advantage in detecting scar in patients with ischemic heart disease and no disadvantage in patients with non-ischemic scar, dark-blood LGE can be readily and widely adopted into clinical practice without compromising on quantification.

<IMAGE>   Y=H, alk met 4-Carboxyphthalato(1,2-diaminocyclohexane) platinum(II) (and alkali metal salts thereof) has shown antileukemic activity in mice against murine leukemia L1210. It is effective in dosages of 5-60 mg/kg of body weight and is potentiated in a treatment with cyclophosphamide (CY) (50 mg/kg of body weight) to which may be added 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (75 mg/kg of body weight) or hydroxyurea (HU) (1000 mg/kg of body weight). Some previous platinum chelate compounds show dosage limitation due to renal impairment but the free carboxyl of the present Pt compound offers a possible route of oral administration and absorption by the stomach. The Pt compound may be prepared by reacting the known dichloro(1,2-diaminocyclohexane) platinum(II) (NSC 194814) with silver nitrate to replace chloro with nitro. Subsequently, benzene tricarboxylic acid is added to form an off-white precipitate (2 hrs, dark, 5 DEG  C.) of the desired product which is preferably utilized as the alkali metal salt. The 4-carboxyphthalato(1,2-diaminocyclohexane)-platinum(II) and alkali metal salts thereof may be combined in multiple drug regimen with substantially improved yield cures over the parent compound. For example, the compound denoted Pt-307 may be combined in a dual regimen with cyclophosphamide (CY) and in a triple drug regimen of Pt-307 plus cyclophosphamide (CY) and either 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) or hydroxyurea (HU) as the third component. Additionally, the present compound (NSC 271674) has shown superior results in testing for renal toxicity against the parent compound (NSC 119875, cis-dichlorodiamino platinum II) and further the present compound appears to be active against strains of murine leukemia wherein the same NSC 119875 has exhausted its activity.
More and more evidence shows that abnormal lipid metabolism leads to immune system dysfunction in AMD and promotes the occurrence of AMD by changing the homeostasis of ocular inflammation. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the effect of lipid metabolism on the phenotype and function of macrophages is still unclear, and the mechanism of association between AMD and cancer and COVID-19 has not been reported. The purpose of this study is to explore the interaction between lipid metabolism related genes, ferroptosis related genes and immunity in AMD, find out the key genes that affect the ferroptosis of AMD through lipid metabolism pathway and the molecular mechanism that mediates the action of macrophages, and find out the possible mechanism of lipid metabolism and potential co-therapeutic targets between AMD and cancer and COVID-19, so as to improve treatment decision-making and clinical results. For the first time, we have comprehensively analyzed the fatty acid molecule related genes, ferroptosis related genes and immune microenvironment of AMD patients, and determined that mast cells and M1 macrophages are the main causes of AMD inflammation, and found that SCD is the core gene in AMD that inhibits ferroptosis through lipid metabolism pathway, and verified the difference in the expression of SCD in AMD in a separate external data set. Based on the analysis of the mechanism of action of the SCD gene, we found for the first time that Has-miR-199a-3p/RELA/SCD is the core axis of action of lipid metabolism pathway to inhibit the ferroptosis of AMD. By inhibiting the immune checkpoint, we can enhance the immune cell activity of AMD and lead to the transformation of macrophages from M2 to M1, thereby promoting the inflammation and pathological angiogenesis of AMD. At the same time, we found that ACOX2 and PECR, as genes for fatty acid metabolism, may regulate the expression of SCD during the occurrence and development of COVID-19, thus affecting the occurrence and development of AMD. We found that FASD1 may be a key gene for the joint action of AMD and COVID-19, and SCD regulates the immune infiltration of macrophages in glioma and germ line tumors. In conclusion, our results can provide theoretical basis for the pathogenesis of AMD, help guide the treatment of AMD patients and their potentially related diseases and help to design effective drug targets.

Patients are stratified by CD4 count, viral load, and prior systemic chemotherapy. Patients are randomized equally to receive either IM862 or placebo given intranasally every other day. Patients are seen every 4 weeks for 6 months or until disease progression to evaluate toxicity and efficacy. Quality of life is assessed before treatment, then every month for 6 months. At the end of the 6-month study evaluation period, patients with PR/CR (responders) remain on study and continue blinded treatment for an additional 6 months. For patients with stable disease (non-responders), the treatment assignment is unblinded and off-study IM862 compassionate use is offered for 6 months, regardless of treatment group. For patients with documented progressive disease (treatment failure), the treatment assignment is unblinded and off-study IM862 is offered for 6 months to any patient in the placebo group. For treatment failures in the IM862 group, IM862 is stopped and the patient is allowed other therapy options.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate risk factors associated with severe postoperative complications following hip fracture surgery in elderly patients and to develop a nomogram-based risk prediction model for these complications.
METHODS: A total of 627 elderly patients with hip fractures treated at Yongchuan Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2015 to April 2024 were collected. 439 patients were assigned to the training cohort for model development, and 188 to the validation cohort for model assessment. The training cohort was stratified based on the presence or absence of severe complications. We employed LASSO regression, as well as univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, to identify significant factors. A nomogram was constructed based on the outcomes of the multivariate regression. The model's discriminative ability was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), while calibration plots and decision curve analysis (DCA) evaluated its calibration and stability. Internal validation was performed using the validation cohort.
RESULTS: Out of the 627 patients, 118 (18.82%) experienced severe postoperative complications. Both LASSO regression and multivariate logistic analysis identified the modified 5-item frailty index (mFI-5) and the preoperative C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) as significant predictors of severe complications. The nomogram model, derived from the multivariate analysis, exhibited strong discriminative ability, with an AUC of 0.963 (95% CI: 0.946-0.980) for the training cohort and 0.963 (95% CI: 0.938-0.988) for the validation cohort. Calibration plots demonstrated excellent agreement between the nomogram's predictions and actual outcomes. Decision curve analysis (DCA) indicated that the model provided clinical utility across all patient scenarios. These findings were consistent in the validation cohort.
CONCLUSIONS: Both the mFI-5 and CAR are predictive factors for severe postoperative complications in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.

OBJECTIVES: Idiopathic membranous nephropathy (MN) is an autoimmune disease characterized by specific antibodies. However, the underlying mechanisms by which lymphocytes promote the development of MN remain poorly understood. This study aims to determine the changes of B-cell subsets and their clinical significance in MN patients.
METHODS: We included a cohort of 21 idiopathic MN patients with new onset or a relapse, 19 healthy controls (HCs) and 10 patients with minimal change disease (MCD). Immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry were performed to assess the B-cell infiltration in renal biopsy tissues and peripheral blood, respectively.
RESULTS: Idiopathic MN patients (including new-onset and relapse groups) had lower percentages of marginal-zone B (MZB) and non-switched memory B cells, and higher percentages of plasmablasts than HCs (P < 0.01). Particularly, the new-onset group had lower percentages of switched memory B cells and MZB cells, and higher percentages of Naïve B cells than HCs (P<0.05). Interestingly, the percentage of plasmablasts was significantly correlated with urine protein to creatinine ratio, serum albumin, IgG, anti-M-type phospholipase A2 receptor antibody level and age in MN patients (P < 0.05). MN with Ehrenreich-Churg stage Ⅱ-Ⅳ had a lower median percentage of MZB and non-switched memory B cells, while a higher median percentage of plasmablasts than those in MN patients with stage Ehrenreich-Churg I (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Idiopathic MN patients had specific changes in B-cell subsets proportions in peripheral blood. Further studies are needed to precisely determine the roles of B-cell subsets in MN.

Scalp psoriasis affects approximately 80% of patients with psoriasis and can negatively impact their quality of life. This post hoc analysis of the VOYAGE 2 Phase III randomized clinical trial evaluated scalp response to guselkumab treatment and its association with skin response and patient-reported outcomes. The study included patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and baseline scalp psoriasis who were initially randomized to receive guselkumab. Patients were divided into 3 groups based on their achievement of a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 90 response at week 28: responder continuation, non-responder continuation and responder withdrawal. In all 3 groups, mean Psoriasis Area and Severity Index head and scalp-specific Investigator's Global Assessment scores improved through week 28. In the responder withdrawal group, these scores worsened after treatment withdrawal at week 28, but remained stable through week 48 in both continuation groups. Trends in Dermatology Life Quality Index and Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary itch scores mirrored those of mean scalp-specific Investigator's Global Assessment scores through week 48. Within-subject correlations were 0.83 between scalp-specific Investigator's Global Assessment and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index head scores and 0.78 between scalp-specific Investigator's Global Assessment and Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary itch scores. Through week 252, Psoriasis Area and Severity Index head scores remained stable in the responder continuation group, improved in the non-responder continuation group and rapidly improved by week 84 in the responder withdrawal group after retreatment.

Preventing the recurrence of melanoma after surgery and accelerating wound healing are among the most challenging aspects of melanoma management. Photothermal therapy has been widely used to treat tumors and bacterial infections and promote wound healing. Owing to its efficacy and specificity, it may be used for postoperative management of tumors. However, its use is limited by the uncontrollable distribution of photosensitizers and the likelihood of damage to the surrounding normal tissue. Hydrogels provide a moist environment with strong biocompatibility and adhesion for wound healing owing to their highly hydrophilic three-dimensional network structure. In addition, these materials serve as excellent drug carriers for tumor treatment and wound healing. It is possible to combine the advantages of both of these agents through different loading modalities to provide a powerful platform for the prevention of tumor recurrence and wound healing. This review summarizes the design strategies, research progress and mechanism of action of hydrogels used in photothermal therapy and discusses their role in preventing tumor recurrence and accelerating wound healing. These findings provide valuable insights into the postoperative management of melanoma and may guide the development of promising multifunctional hydrogels for photothermal therapy.

AIM: The aim was to investigate the prevalence of, and factors related to frailty, together with early clinical outcomes, in hospitalized older patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) in China.
DESIGN: A prospective observational cohort study was conducted.
METHODS: A validated prospective survey was conducted to assess the prevalence of frailty, factors associated with it, and early clinical outcomes in hospitalized older patients with VHD, utilizing Fried's criterion. A total of 207 consecutive participants aged 65 years and older who underwent cardiac surgery were included in the study, spanning from September 2021 to December 2021.
RESULTS: Frailty was detected in 78 patients (37.7%). Patients with multimorbidity, a New York Heart Association (NYHA) class of III/IV, or masticatory dysfunction had a greater incidence of frailty (p < 0.05). Patients with a normal albumin level and a higher frequency of exercise had a lower incidence of frailty (p < 0.05). Patients with frailty had longer hospital and intensive care unit stays and greater hospitalization costs than did those without frailty (p < 0.05). The 30-day adverse event rate of the frail group was also greater (11.5% vs. 3.1%). Therefore, early screening for conditions such as multimorbidity, cardiac dysfunction, and hypoalbuminemia is urgently needed to effectively address frailty, as it has been linked to unfavourable early outcomes. Moreover, promoting exercise and improving masticatory function and nutrition are crucial for preventing and managing frailty in older patients with VHD.
