A Systematic Review of the Current Evidence from Randomised Controlled Trials on the Impact of Medication Optimisation or Pharmacological Interventions on Quantitative Measures of Cognitive Function in Geriatric Patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Cognitive decline is common in older people. Numerous studies point to the detrimental impact of polypharmacy and inappropriate medication on older people’s cognitive function. Here we aim to systematically ... -
A systematic review of the effects of intimate partner violence on HIV-positive pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects more than one in three women in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). It is associated with both pregnancy and HIV, adversely affecting women in this region. This is the first ... -
Systemic Activation of the Kynurenine Pathway in Graves Disease With and Without Ophthalmopathy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Context Graves disease (GD) is one of the most common autoimmune disorders. Recent literature has shown an immune response involving several different inflammatory related proteins in these patients. Objective This ... -
Systemic Cardiac Troponin T Associated With Incident Atrial Fibrillation Among Patients With Suspected Stable Angina Pectoris
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Higher concentrations of cardiac troponin T are associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and adverse cardiovascular prognosis. The relation with incident atrial fibrillation (AF) is less explored. We studied this ... -
Systemic Cell Adhesion Molecules in Severe Mental Illness: Potential Role of Intercellular CAM-1 in Linking Peripheral and Neuroinflammation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) orchestrate leukocyte trafficking and could link peripheral and neuroinflammation in patients with severe mental illness (SMI), by promoting inflammatory and immune-mediated ... -
Systemic complement activation is associated with respiratory failure in COVID-19 hospitalized patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Respiratory failure in the acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is hypothesized to be driven by an overreacting innate immune response, where the complement system is a key player. In this prospective ... -
Systemic immune activation profiles in streptococcal necrotizing soft tissue infections: A prospective multicenter study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objective Early stages with streptococcal necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTIs) are often difficult to discern from cellulitis. Increased insight into inflammatory responses in streptococcal disease may guide correct ... -
Systemic interferon type I and B cell responses are impaired in autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I (APS-1) is caused by mutations in the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene and characterised clinically by multiple autoimmune manifestations and serologically by autoantibodies against ... -
The systemic metabolic profile early after allogeneic stem cell transplantation: Effects of adequate energy support administered through enteral feeding tube
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation usually require nutritional support. There is no consensus on whether enteral support through tube feeding should be preferred. A recent randomized study could not ... -
Systemic metabolomic profiles in adult patients with bacterial sepsis: Characterization of patient heterogeneity at the time of diagnosis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-01-24)Sepsis is a dysregulated host response to infection that causes potentially life-threatening organ dysfunction. We investigated the serum metabolomic profile at hospital admission for patients with bacterial sepsis. The ... -
Systemic oxidative stress associates with disease severity and outcome in patients with new-onset or worsening heart failure
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: Oxidative stress may be a key pathophysiological mediator in the development and progression of heart failure (HF). The role of serum-free thiol concentrations, as a marker of systemic oxidative stress, in HF ... -
Systems analyses of the Fabry kidney transcriptome and its response to enzyme replacement therapy identified and cross-validated enzyme replacement therapy-resistant targets amenable to drug repurposing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Fabry disease is a rare disorder caused by variations in the alpha-galactosidase gene. To a degree, Fabry disease is manageable via enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). By understanding the molecular basis of Fabry nephropathy ... -
Systolic myocardial function measured by echocardiographic speckle-tracking and peak oxygen consumption in pediatric childhood cancer survivors—a PACCS study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: Cancer therapy-related cardiotoxicity is a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity in childhood cancer survivors. The aims of this study were to investigate systolic myocardial function and its association to ... -
