Adipose Tissue Browning in MASLD and Its Molecular Mechanisms and Metabolic Crosstalk

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is an increasingly prevalent complication of obesity and metabolic dysregulation, with limited therapies targeting upstream drivers of disease. Adipose tissue has emerged as a central regulator of...

The experience of cross-setting care transitions of long-term care residents to the emergency department: a qualitative study

As the population ages, the medical needs of residents in long-term care (LTC) facilities are increasing. However, there remains a lack of in-depth exploration of how clinical information and care responsibilities are understood and transferred across settings when LTC residents...

Low‐intensity focused ultrasound neuromodulation for drug‐resistant epilepsy: A randomized, sham‐controlled crossover trial

Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of low‐intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) as a noninvasive neuromodulation technique in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE). Methods In this pilot, single‐blind, randomized sha...

Toward on-premises RAG pipelines for AI-assisted neuroradiology: practical considerations on privacy, accuracy, and timeliness

Accurate differential diagnosis (DDx) in neuroradiology is challenging and remains vulnerable to cognitive biases and inter-reader variability in clinical practice. Despite expert training, human-generated DDx may be limited in breadth. Large language models (LLMs) have shown pro...
