Significance Statement The role of asymptomatic hyperuricemia in the progression CKD has been unclear due to lack animal models with clinically relevant uric acid (UA) levels. A new mouse model reveals that persistent (approximately 15 mg/dl) does not cause CKD, nor accelerate progression, unless UA crystallizes acidic tubular fluid. Crystallization initially causes injury, inflammation, and interstitial fibrosis, subsequently granulomatous nephritis perilesional proinflammatory M1-like...
Importance In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing invasive treatment, ticagrelor and prasugrel are guideline-recommended P2Y12 receptor inhibitors. The ISAR-REACT5 randomized clinical trial demonstrated superiority for prasugrel, although concerns were raised about the generalizability of some underpowered subgroup analyses. Objectives To emulate a evaluating safety effectiveness vs under conditions routine care in individuals ACS planned to undergo an treatment strategy....
Identifying high-risk individuals is crucial for preventing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Currently, risk assessment mostly performed by physicians. Mobile health apps could help decouple the determination of from medical resources allowing unrestricted self-assessment. The respective test results need to be interpretable laypersons.Together with a patient organization, we aimed design digital calculator that allows people individually assess and optimize their CVD risk. was integrated...
In current healthcare research, pain logs are an important means to measure the impact of medication and detect patterns. However, entry textual data may be negatively reinforcing, due its character direct confrontation with one's pain, potentially leading a higher awareness. This paper introduces valeo, new form tactile log, which is based on vibrotactile, pressure- tilt-sensitive device. Future iterations will also include body part recognition. By squeezing it close own body, subjective...
Professionals in modern healthcare systems are increasingly burdened by documentation workloads. Documentation of the initial patient anamnesis is particularly relevant, forming basis successful further diagnostic measures. However, manually prepared notes inherently unstructured and often incomplete. In this paper, we investigate potential NLP techniques to support doctors matter. We present a dataset German monologues, formulate well-defined information extraction task under constraints...
Abstract Background Mentoring is important for a successful career in academic medicine. In online matching processes, profile texts are decisive the mentor-selection. We aimed to qualitatively characterize mentoring-profile-texts, identify differences form and content thus elements that promote selection. Methods mixed method study first, quality of 150 selected mentoring profiles was evaluated (10-point Likert scale; 1 = insufficient 10 very good). Second, based on thematic analysis...
Abstract Objective The accurate documentation of a medical history interview is an important goal in education. As students' interviews mostly decentralised on the wards, systematic assessment quality missing. We therefore evaluated extent details missed reports standardised setting. Methods In this prospective, observational study, 123 380 students (32.4%) participated Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) regarding taking and documentation. Based nine deductively selected main categories,...
Obtaining a systematic medical history (MH) from patient is core competency in education and plays vital role the diagnosis of diseases. At Faculty Medicine at LMU Munich, students have their first course MH taking during second year. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, traditional bedside had be transformed into an online (OC). Our objectives were implement course, evaluate its feasibility compare evaluation results historic cohort that undertaken teaching (BTC).874 second-year participated OC...
This paper explores the potential of robotic needle felting for customized production nonwoven textiles and their architectural applications.The possibility to program movement locally control fiber density distribution allows design nonwoven, heterogeneous materials with graded properties not by differentiating chemical composition, but rather controlling mechanical structure.We propose a parametric fabrication workflow relying on 6-axis arm.We describe techniques generation felted surfaces...

Background: In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated intervention, potent P2Y12 inhibitors are recommended for 1 year in addition to aspirin. The ISAR-REACT 5 (IR5) trial demonstrated superior efficacy of prasugrel over ticagrelor reducing the composite death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke at comparable bleeding risk. However, long-term data on relative these drugs real-world settings lacking. Methods: We performed a comprehensive, retrospective cohort study based...
