–>

In this week’s issue:


Research Articles

COMPUTATIONAL MODELING

A mathematical model of the human response to trauma replicates individual patient outcomes but predicts unexpected results in populations.

METABOLOMICS

In a large-scale population-based metabolic phenotyping study, diverse sets of urinary metabolites, including gut microbial co-metabolites, were reproducibly associated with human adiposity.

IMMUNOTHERAPY

CMV-specific T cells, derived from the naïve population, recognize different epitopes of CMV than do memory-derived T cells and may be functional and protective in vivo.

BIOENGINEERING

Patient-specific, image-based design coupled with 3D biomaterial printing produced personalized implants for treatment of collapsed airways in patients with tracheobronchomalacia.

HYPERTENSION

Local tissue anatomy determines the success of renal nerve ablation and explains its variable effects on blood pressure.


Editorial

GRADUATE EDUCATION

Twenty-first century training programs seek to provide the “BEST” graduate education for our future biomedical workforce.


Focus

POLICY

New research-deficient systems of medical education could diminish the translation of biomedical advances to patients.

HYPERTENSION

Renal sympathetic denervation in hypertensive patients is less effective than anticipated, owing to radio frequency energy being applied to a part of the renal artery where the nerves are at the greatest distance from the aortic lumen, and to distortion of energy distribution and temperature gradients by regional tissue anatomical variations (Tzafriri et al., this issue).


Editors’ Choice

SLEEP

Sleep-disordered breathing hastens cognitive decline by a decade, but positive airway pressure treatment may offset this effect.

IMMUNOTHERAPY

INFLAMMATION

Classical proinflammatory monocytes transition to a pro-repair phenotype during repair of sterile tissue damage in the liver.

EPIGENETICS

Epigenetic profile maturation in blood lymphocytes appears to occur during early childhood development in human females.
