Device and Patient-Related Complications of Renal Denervation for Uncontrolled Hypertension: A Post-Marketing Analysis of the FDA MAUDE Database

Sai Tharun Reddy Gopannagari, Kesava Manikanta Achuta, Divya Ganisetti, Shravya Pingili, Towfiqul Chowdhury, Chadi Saad

Introduction Renal denervation (RDN) has re-emerged as an adjunctive therapy for uncontrolled hypertension following recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approvals of ultrasound- and radiofrequency-based systems. Although randomized trials report a favorable safety profile, post-marketing data may reveal additional safety signals in real-world settings. Methods We performed a retrospective descriptive observational study of reports in the FDA Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) databa …

A APLICAÇÃO DO PENSAMENTO COMPLEXO DE EDGAR MORIN NA MEDICINA E EDUCAÇÃO EM SAÚDE: UMA REVISÃO DE LITERATURA

Renato Faria da Gama, Lilian Coelho Heringer Diniz, Peterson Gonçalves Teixeira, Rodolfo Moura Pereira, Crisóstomo Lima do Nascimento

O modelo biomédico cartesiano, consolidado pelo Relatório Flexner no início do século XX, impôs uma trajetória de hiperespecialização e fragmentação do conhecimento na medicina. Embora tenha propiciado inegáveis avanços tecnológicos, essa abordagem reducionista limitou a capacidade dos profissionais de compreender o paciente em sua totalidade existencial e biopsicossocial. O presente artigo de revisão narrativa analisa as contribuições do Pensamento Complexo de Edgar Morin (1921–2026) como alternativa epistemológic …

A Survey of Clinical Practices for Prompt Dependency

Kimberly R. Ford, Catia Cividini‐Motta

ABSTRACT Prompt‐dependent behavior, more colloquially known as “prompt dependency,” has been minimally studied in the literature. However, it remains a problem in clinical practice. This survey study was conducted to gain insight into clinical practices related to prompt‐dependent behavior, including the assessments and interventions clinicians currently employ. Participants were individuals who, within the last year, provided services to at least one individual with autism who displayed prompt‐dependent behavior a …

Computational strategies to address therapeutic resistance in estrogen receptor‐positive breast cancer: A narrative review of molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and emerging therapeutic targets

Emmanuel Ifeanyi Obeagu, Yaregal Asres

Abstract Background Estrogen receptor‐positive (ER+) breast cancer represents the most common molecular subtype of breast cancer and remains highly responsive to endocrine therapy. However, therapeutic efficacy is frequently compromised by acquired or intrinsic endocrine resistance, particularly through ESR1 mutations, altered receptor conformation, co‐regulatory mechanisms, and activation of compensatory signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT/mTOR. Conventional drug‐discovery approaches are often slow, resource‐inten …

Atherton, Colin Berry, Ivaylo Tonchev, Chris Gianacas, Werner Jung, Sanjay K. Prasad, Carmine G. De Pasquale, Johannes Brachmann, Anand Ganesan, Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance–Guided Management of Mild to Moderate Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Trial Investigators, Rajiv Ananthakrishna, Margaret Arstall, Niall Campbell, Derek T Connelly, David Ferreira, Daniel Garofalo, Jemima Gore, Suchi Grover, John Hill, Nicola Johnston, Alamgir Kabir, David Kaye, Sau Lee, Tina Lin, Scott Lorensini, Jakob Lüker, Paul D MacIntyre, Christian Mahnkopf, Andrew Martin, Gerry P McCann, Ashley Nisbet, Gaetano Nucifora, Bhupesh Pathik, Andreas Pflaumer

Importance Current guidelines do not recommend primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) unless a patient’s left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 35% or less. Many sudden cardiac deaths (SCD) occur when LVEF is 36% to 50%. Myocardial scar (a key arrhythmic substrate) can be assessed by late gadolinium enhancement on cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), but robust evidence is lacking regarding a scar-based approach to ICD insertion. Objective To determine whether implantation of IC …

Drug-induced sarcoid-like reaction during BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy for metastatic melanoma

A.N. Khlebnikova, V.E. Shikina, A.V. Semenkov, A.I. Zotov, G.R. Setdikova

In recent years, targeted therapy with BRAF/MEK inhibitors has been successfully used for treating metastatic melanoma. Although generally well tolerated, it may lead to the development of both systemic and cutaneous side effects. The most frequently reported adverse events include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pyrexia, chills, and hypertension. Cutaneous side effects manifest as alopecia, acneiform rash, maculopapular rash, dry skin, and photosensitivity reactions. Cases of squamous cell carcinoma and keratoacanthom …

Precision Pharmacotherapy for Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Matching Targeted Drugs to Patient Endophenotypes

Jayoung Oh, Ji Ho Choi

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) remains under-treated because continuous positive airway pressure, though efficacious, is frequently limited by poor tolerance and adherence. Long considered a purely anatomical disease refractory to drugs, OSA is now understood as the shared endpoint of four measurable endotypes—a collapsible upper airway, poor pharyngeal dilator-muscle responsiveness, high loop gain, and a low arousal threshold—each a distinct pharmacological target. This review synthesizes the mechanisti …

Association of serum, follicular fluid, and embryo culture media homocysteine levels with embryo quality and pregnancy rates in assisted reproductive techniques

Xuxin Zhan, Xiaoting Wang, Jinxia Xie, Jing Zhao, Hongli Zhu

Homocysteine (Hcy) is involved in reproductive metabolism, but the associations of Hcy levels in different reproductive microenvironments with embryo development and pregnancy outcomes remain unclear. This study investigated these associations in women undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI). This prospective study included 66 women undergoing IVF/ICSI treatment. Serum and follicular fluid (FF) samples were collected on the day of oocyte pick-up, and Hcy concentrations were mea …
