Article Abstract

An on-line dialysis sampling method coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography was developed for simultaneous investigation of the interactions between multiple bioactive compounds contained in herbal medicines and proteins. The system was used to estimate the interactions of components in danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) injection with bovine serum albumin. The results showed that the binding actions of five water-soluble compounds in danshen injection could be simultaneously investigated. The binding parameters of caffeic acid, ferulic acid, danshensu, protocatechuic acid and protocatechuic aldehyde were obtained and the interaction mechanisms were explored. The association constant evaluated for caffeic acid agreed well with literature values. The proposed approach should be beneficial for examining the holistic combined action of herbal medicine with proteins and help facilitate the discovery process of drug candidates.

Age-Stratified Reference Ranges for Directly Measured Serum Free Testosterone in Community-Dwelling and Healthy Men.

J Clin Endocrinol Metab

September 2025

Department of Endocrinology, Ghent University Hospital; Department of Internal Medicine & Pediatrics, Ghent University, Corneel Heymanslaan 10, 9000 Ghent, Belgium.

Context: Direct measurement of serum free testosterone (FT) may help evaluate hypogonadism in men. However, up to present, availability of reference ranges for measured FT (mFT) is limited.

Objective: To establish age-stratified reference ranges for mFT in healthy and community-dwelling adult men.

The human kidneys play a pivotal role in regulating blood pressure, water, and salt homeostasis, but assessment of renal function typically requires invasive methods. Deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI) is a novel, noninvasive technique for mapping tissue-specific uptake and metabolism of deuterium-labeled tracers. This study evaluates the feasibility of renal DMI at 7-Tesla (7T) to track deuterium-labeled tracers with high spatial and temporal resolution, aiming to establish a foundation for potential clinical applications in the noninvasive investigation of renal physiology and pathophysiology.

Introduction: Electronic health records can be used to create high-quality databases if data are structured and well-registered, which is the case for most perioperative data in the Capital and Zealand Regions of Denmark. We present the purpose and development of the AI and Automation in Anaesthesia (TRIPLE-A) database-a platform designed for epidemiology, prediction, quality control, and automated research data collection.

Methods: Data collection from the electronic medical record (EPIC Systems Corporation, WI, USA) was approved by the Capital Region, Denmark, and ethical approval was waived.

Heart transplantation (HTx) is greatly limited by organ shortage. To address this crisis, donation after circulatory death (DCD) is an emerging alternative to the traditional donation after brain death (DBD). Unfortunately, there is scarce data on HTx outcomes for this donation type, particularly within the United States; our investigation seeks to address this knowledge gap.

Background And Objective: Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent yet preventable complication linked with increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden. Multiple perioperative risk factors contribute to its development. This study aimed to determine the incidence, clinical outcomes, and independent predictors of postoperative AKI across various surgical procedures.
