TL;DR: The efficacy of percutaneous closure of the LAA with this device was non-inferior to that of warfarin therapy and there was a higher rate of adverse safety events in the intervention group than in the control group, which were mainly a result of periprocedural complications.

TL;DR: Criteria for the classification of Wegener's granulomatosis were developed by comparing 85 patients who had this disease with 722 control patients with other forms of vasculitis with a high level of sensitivity and specificity.
Abstract: Criteria for the classification of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) were developed by comparing 85 patients who had this disease with 722 control patients with other forms of vasculitis. For the traditional format classification, 4 criteria were selected: abnormal urinary sediment (red cell casts or greater than 5 red blood cells per high power field), abnormal findings on chest radiograph (nodules, cavities, or fixed infiltrates), oral ulcers or nasal discharge, and granulomatous inflammation on biopsy. The presence of 2 or more of these 4 criteria was associated with a sensitivity of 88.2% and a specificity of 92.0%. A classification tree was also constructed with 5 criteria being selected. These criteria were the same as for the traditional format, but included hemoptysis. The classification tree was associated with a sensitivity of 87.1% and a specificity of 93.6%. We describe criteria which distinguish patients with WG from patients with other forms of vasculitis with a high level of sensitivity and specificity. This distinction is important because WG requires cyclophosphamide therapy, whereas many other forms of vasculitis can be treated with corticosteroids alone.

TL;DR: NFTs are not sufficient to cause cognitive decline or neuronal death in this model of tauopathy, and after the suppression of transgenic tau, memory function recovered, and neuron numbers stabilized, but to the authors' surprise, NFTs continued to accumulate.
Abstract: Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) are the most common intraneuronal inclusion in the brains of patients with neurodegenerative diseases and have been implicated in mediating neuronal death and cognitive deficits Here, we found that mice expressing a repressible human tau variant developed progressive age-related NFTs, neuronal loss, and behavioral impairments After the suppression of transgenic tau, memory function recovered, and neuron numbers stabilized, but to our surprise, NFTs continued to accumulate Thus, NFTs are not sufficient to cause cognitive decline or neuronal death in this model of tauopathy

TL;DR: The strength of the evidence that untreated subclinical thyroid disease is associated with clinical symptoms and adverse clinical outcomes was assessed and recommendations for clinical practice developed and insufficient evidence to support population-based screening was found.
Abstract: ContextPatients with serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels outside
the reference range and levels of free thyroxine (FT4) and triiodothyronine
(T3) within the reference range are common in clinical practice.
The necessity for further evaluation, possible treatment, and the urgency
of treatment have not been clearly established.ObjectivesTo define subclinical thyroid disease, review its epidemiology, recommend
an appropriate evaluation, explore the risks and benefits of treatment and
consequences of nontreatment, and determine whether population-based screening
is warranted.Data SourcesMEDLINE, EMBASE, Biosis, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality,
National Guideline Clearing House, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews
and Controlled Trials Register, and several National Health Services (UK)
databases were searched for articles on subclinical thyroid disease published
between 1995 and 2002. Articles published before 1995 were recommended by
expert consultants.Study Selection and Data ExtractionA total of 195 English-language or translated papers were reviewed.
Editorials, individual case studies, studies enrolling fewer than 10 patients,
and nonsystematic reviews were excluded. Information related to authorship,
year of publication, number of subjects, study design, and results were extracted
and formed the basis for an evidence report, consisting of tables and summaries
of each subject area.Data SynthesisThe strength of the evidence that untreated subclinical thyroid disease
is associated with clinical symptoms and adverse clinical outcomes was assessed
and recommendations for clinical practice developed. Data relating the progression
of subclinical to overt hypothyroidism were rated as good, but data relating
treatment to prevention of progression were inadequate to determine a treatment
benefit. Data relating a serum TSH level higher than 10 mIU/L to elevations
in serum cholesterol were rated as fair but data relating to benefits of treatment
were rated as insufficient. All other associations of symptoms and benefit
of treatment were rated as insufficient or absent. Data relating a serum TSH
concentration lower than 0.1 mIU/L to the presence of atrial fibrillation
and progression to overt hyperthyroidism were rated as good, but no data supported
treatment to prevent these outcomes. Data relating restoration of the TSH
level to within the reference range with improvements in bone mineral density
were rated as fair. Data addressing all other associations of subclinical
hyperthyroid disease and adverse clinical outcomes or treatment benefits were
rated as insufficient or absent. Subclinical hypothyroid disease in pregnancy
is a special case and aggressive case finding and treatment in pregnant women
can be justified.ConclusionsData supporting associations of subclinical thyroid disease with symptoms
or adverse clinical outcomes or benefits of treatment are few. The consequences
of subclinical thyroid disease (serum TSH 0.1-0.45 mIU/L or 4.5-10.0 mIU/L)
are minimal and we recommend against routine treatment of patients with TSH
levels in these ranges. There is insufficient evidence to support population-based
screening. Aggressive case finding is appropriate in pregnant women, women
older than 60 years, and others at high risk for thyroid dysfunction.
