The effect of exercise on vascular health in chronic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1152/ajprenal.00152.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPatients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This increased risk cannot be fully explained by traditional risk factors such as hypertension. Endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness have been suggested as factors which explain some of the increased risk, and are independently associated with important cardiovascular outcomes in CKD patients. Studies in other disease populations have shown positive effects of exercise on vascular dysfunction. The aim of this review was...

Cell Sheet Technology: An Emerging Approach for Tendon and Ligament Tissue Engineering
Ann Biomed Eng. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1007/s10439-023-03370-3. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTendon and ligament injuries account for a substantial proportion of disorders in the musculoskeletal system. While non-operative and operative treatment strategies have advanced, the restoration of native tendon and ligament structures after injury is still challenging due to its innate limited regenerative ability. Cell sheet technology is an innovative tool for tissue fabrication and cell transplantation in regenerative medicine. In this review, we first summarize different harvesting procedures and advantages of cell sheet techn...

A quick algorithmic review on management of viral infectious diseases in pediatric solid organ transplant recipients
Front Pediatr. 2023 Sep 4;11:1252495. doi: 10.3389/fped.2023.1252495. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTPediatric solid organ transplant is a life-saving procedure for children with end-stage organ failure. Viral infections are a common complication following pediatric solid organ transplantation (SOT), which can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. Pediatric solid organ transplant recipients are at an increased risk of viral infections due to their immunosuppressed state. The most commonly encountered viruses include cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), herpes simplex virus (HSV), varicella-zoster virus (VZV), ad...

Bioelectronic medicine potentiates endogenous NSCs for neurodegenerative diseases
Trends Mol Med. 2023 Sep 19:S1471-4914(23)00190-9. doi: 10.1016/j.molmed.2023.08.005. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are commonly observed and while no therapy is universally applicable, cell-based therapies are promising. Stem cell transplantation has been investigated, but endogenous neural stem cells (eNSCs), despite their potential, especially with the development of bioelectronic medicine and biomaterials, remain understudied. Here, we compare stem cell transplantation therapy with eNSC-based therapy and summarize the combined use of eNSCs and developing technologies. The rapid developm...

The Impact of Donor Smoking on Primary Graft Dysfunction and Mortality after Lung Transplantation
CONCLUSIONS: Donor smoking associates with a modest increase in PGD risk but not with increased recipient mortality. Use of lungs from smokers is likely safe and may increase lung donor availability.PMID:37734031 | DOI:10.1164/rccm.202303-0358OC

Task Force for a rapid response to an outbreak of severe acute hepatitis of unknown aetiology in children in Portugal in 2022
Euro Surveill. 2023 Sep;28(38). doi: 10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2023.28.38.2300171.ABSTRACTOn 5 April 2022, the United Kingdom reported an increase of cases of severe acute hepatitis of unknown aetiology in children, several needing hospitalisation and some required liver transplant or died. Thereafter, 35 countries reported probable cases, almost half of them in Europe. Facing the alert, on 28 April, Portugal created a multidisciplinary Task Force (TF) for rapid detection of probable cases and response. The experts of the TF came from various disciplines: clinicians, laboratory experts, epidemiologists, public health experts an...

The history of vaginoplasty: Technical and sociological advances
Ann Chir Plast Esthet. 2023 Sep 19:S0294-1260(23)00075-4. doi: 10.1016/j.anplas.2023.07.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTechnical advances in gender-affirming genital surgery have allowed the modern surgeon to create a vagina, vulva and clitoris from a male sex. This surgery, commonly known as vaginoplasty, should in fact be identified as aidopoiesis, since it is not a question of improving an already existing vagina but of creating a female sex. Numerous technical advances made since 1930 throughout the world now offer a safe and proven surgical strategy for female genital gender affirmation. Most of these techniques a...

Durable complete response to early immunotherapy discontinuation in a kidney transplant recipient with advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma: A case report and review of literature
CONCLUSION: Organ transplant recipients with complete response to immunotherapy for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma may continue to respond despite early treatment cessation. This may reduce the risks of late immune-related adverse events and acute graft rejection.PMID:37734447 | DOI:10.1016/j.trim.2023.101932

Non-coding RNAs: The potential biomarker or therapeutic target in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury
World J Gastroenterol. 2023 Sep 7;29(33):4927-4941. doi: 10.3748/wjg.v29.i33.4927.ABSTRACTHepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) is the major complication of liver surgery and liver transplantation, that may increase the postoperative morbidity, mortality, tumor progression, and metastasis. The underlying mechanisms have been extensively investigated in recent years. Among these, oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, immunoreactions, and cell death are the most studied. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are defined as the RNAs that do not encode proteins, but can regulate gene expressions. In recent years, ncRNAs have emerg...

Prevention and management of hepatitis B virus reactivation in patients with hematological malignancies in the targeted therapy era
World J Gastroenterol. 2023 Sep 7;29(33):4942-4961. doi: 10.3748/wjg.v29.i33.4942.ABSTRACTHepatitis due to hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation can be serious and potentially fatal, but is preventable. HBV reactivation is most commonly reported in patients receiving chemotherapy, especially rituximab-containing therapy for hematological malignancies and those receiving stem cell transplantation. Patients with inactive and even resolved HBV infection still have persistence of HBV genomes in the liver. The expression of these silent genomes is controlled by the immune system. Suppression or ablation of immune cells, most imp...
