Cardiorenal Stress Phenotype, Renal Recovery, and Survival Outcomes in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma with Renal Impairment: A Real-World Cohort Study

This real-world cohort study demonstrates that newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients with renal impairment exhibit a distinct cardiorenal stress phenotype characterized by elevated NT-proBNP and LDH, which independently predicts heterogeneous renal recovery and worse overall survival, suggesting that hematologic response alone is insufficient for prognosis and that cardiorenal stress stratification should be integrated into management.

Value-Based Healthcare Model of Medical and Pharmaceutical Care for Patients With Coronary Artery Disease with Comorbid Conditions: Cost- Benefit Analysis in the Healthcare Setting of Ukraine

This study proposes and validates a value-based, three-level pharmaceutical care model for Ukrainian patients with coronary artery disease and comorbidities, demonstrating through cost-benefit analysis that integrating clinical pharmacists and original fixed-dose combinations significantly reduces cardiovascular events and generates substantial net economic benefits across multiple healthcare perspectives.

Detecting tumor-associated peptides from the plasma-derived soluble immunopeptidome in human hepatocellular carcinoma patients: a pilot study

This pilot study demonstrates that plasma-derived soluble HLA-I peptides in hepatocellular carcinoma patients contain tumor-associated antigens shared with tumor tissue, suggesting that sHLA-I profiling is a promising minimally invasive strategy for identifying actionable targets and tumor-specific signatures in HCC.

Temporal Inverted Internal Limiting Membrane Flap Technique versus Conventional Internal Limiting Membrane Peeling Technique for Large Macular Holes: A Retrospective Comparative Study

This retrospective comparative study demonstrates that the temporal inverted internal limiting membrane flap technique yields superior visual acuity, outer retinal layer recovery, and closure rates—particularly for macular holes ≥550 µm—compared to conventional internal limiting membrane peeling for large full-thickness macular holes.

30-Day Morbidity and Mortality of Surgical Management for Lower Limb Vascular Injury in Yemeni Civilians: A Prospective Cohort Study

This prospective cohort study of 78 Yemeni civilians with lower limb vascular injuries reveals a 9% 30-day mortality and 51.3% morbidity rate, identifying hemodynamic instability as the primary predictor of death and concomitant nerve injury as the decisive factor for functional recovery, while highlighting the critical need for improved pre-hospital triage and surgical evacuation.

Longitudinal Associations Between BMI, Physical Activity, and Sleep Quality in Chinese School-Aged Children: A Two-Wave Study

This two-wave longitudinal study of Chinese school-aged children reveals a self-reinforcing cycle where higher BMI predicts increased low-intensity physical activity, which in turn leads to poorer sleep quality and subsequently reduced moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, thereby exacerbating obesity.

Psychological Disturbances at ICU Discharge: Evaluation Using the Intensive Care Psychological Assessment Tool (IPAT) and Association with Clinical Features: An observational cross-sectional study

This observational cross-sectional study of 392 ICU patients demonstrates that the Intensive Care Psychological Assessment Tool (IPAT) effectively identifies acute psychological disorders at discharge, revealing that advanced age, higher APACHE-II scores, prior psychiatric history, use of psychotropic medications, and non-invasive mechanical ventilation are significant risk factors, while also validating a specific IPAT cut-off score for predicting delirium.
