  • Monoclonal gammopathy in ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis: prevalence, characteristics and outcomes. [Journal Article]

  • CONCLUSIONS: MG is frequent in patients with ANCA-GN, mainly reflecting age and comorbidity but does not independently influence renal survival, mortality, or progression to hematological malignancy. MG should be considered a coexisting condition rather than a disease modifier in ANCA-GN, although standardized follow-up remains warranted.

  • Prediction and Progression Stratification of Type II Endoleak After EVAR Using Clinical, Anatomical, and Ultrasound Parameters. [Journal Article]
    J Endovasc Ther. 2026 Aug 18; :15266028261474361. [Online ahead of print]Li R, Wu X, Mu XJE
  • CONCLUSIONS: T2EL occurrence after EVAR was associated mainly with preoperative anatomy, collateral vessel conditions, and baseline patient factors, whereas sac progression in established T2EL appeared to be associated with exploratory ultrasound-derived hemodynamic and volumetric burden. These findings may help refine postoperative surveillance and selection for reintervention.Clinical ImpactType II endoleak after EVAR should not be managed as a uniform or inherently benign finding. In our cohort, T2EL occurrence was associated mainly with preoperative anatomy, collateral-vessel status, and baseline patient factors, whereas sac progression among established T2EL cases appeared to be associated with exploratory ultrasound-derived hemodynamic and volumetric burden. This 2-step framework may provide an exploratory strategy for postoperative risk stratification beyond simple endoleak detection and may help identify patients requiring intensified surveillance. However, because model development was based on limited T2EL events and ultrasound-derived measurements require broader external validation despite institutional diagnostic-performance and interobserver reliability assessments, clinical use remains premature.

  • Social Media Influencer Marketing as a Clinical Trial Recruitment Modality: Tutorial Informed by One Study's Approach. [Journal Article]
    J Med Internet Res. 2026 Aug 11; 28:e92813.Plante TB, Cao J, … Juraschek SPJM
  • CONCLUSIONS: Social media influencer marketing through Cameo Business is a rapid, low-cost mechanism for producing clinical trial recruitment videos and is feasible within typical trial timelines and budgets. To our knowledge, this is the first tutorial to document the procedure end to end, and it surfaces practical, ethical, and authenticity considerations, including governance of generative artificial intelligence and the limits of permissible video editing, that investigators should weigh before adopting this modality. The comparative effectiveness of influencer-based recruitment will be evaluated separately.

  • Hypertension in Wilms Tumor at Diagnosis: Proposed Treatment Recommendations Starting From a Bi-Institutional Retrospective Observational Study. [Journal Article]
    Pediatr Blood Cancer. 2026 Aug 18; :e70617. [Online ahead of print]Bondanese A, Gattuso G, … Spreafico FPB
  • CONCLUSIONS: We confirmed the high prevalence of AH at WT diagnosis and identified tumor-related factors associated with an increased risk of developing AH. The key elements for the adequate management of these patients include the use of appropriate antihypertensive therapy and proper routine blood pressure screening for all patients with a new WT diagnosis. In the absence of standardized treatment guidelines, we propose recommendations developed through collaboration among pediatric oncologists, cardiologists, and nephrologists.

  • A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on 30-Day Readmission Rates After Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair and Open Repair. [Systematic Review]
    Ann Ital Chir. 2026 Aug 13; 97(8):1317-1333.Bachert C, Epple J, … Grundmann RTAI
  • CONCLUSIONS: EVAR was associated with lower pooled 30-day readmission rates and shorter hospital stays than OAR. However, direct comparative meta-analysis indicated no significant difference in 30-day readmission rates between procedures. At the study level, readmission was linked to patient comorbidity and postoperative complications, whereas no significant association was observed between length of stay and readmission. Given the observational design, substantial heterogeneity, and potential residual confounding, these findings should be interpreted with caution. Long-term outcomes were not assessed.

  • Combined Post- and Precapillary Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients With Advanced Heart Failure. [Review]
    Circ Heart Fail. 2026 Aug 18; :e014787. [Online ahead of print]Hardin EA, Dewanjee A, … Chin KMCH
  • Pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease, or group 2 pulmonary hypertension, is common in patients with advanced heart failure. In at least a third of these patients, the pulmonary pressures are disproportionately elevated relative to left heart filling pressures and are classified as combined post- and precapillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH). CpcPH is thought to result not o…
