Effect of atrial high-rate episodes (AHREs) on functional status and quality of life (QoL) in heart failure—cardiac resynchronization therapy population by Lamyaa Elsayed Allam, Youssef Abdel Moneim, Hayam Mohammad Eldamanhoury, Sherif Mohammad Aziz Eltoukhy

“…The aim is to determine factors associated with AHRE in HFrEF/CRT patients and the effect of AHRE on functional capacity and quality of life (QoL). Results We interrogated 100 patients' devices to gauge the incidence and burden of AHRE, then assessed their functional capacity using the standard 6-min walk test (6MWT), and evaluated their QoL using the Minnesota Living with HF questionnaire (MLHFQ) score. 34% of patients had AHRE, and 91.2% of them had AF. …”

Protease shaving of Mycobacterium tuberculosis facilitates vaccine antigen discovery and delivery of novel cargoes to the Mtb surface by Bianca A. Lepe, Christine R. Zheng, Owen K. Leddy, Benjamin L. Allsup, Sydney L. Solomon, Bryan D. Bryson

“…Several knowledge gaps persist in our understanding of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)-host interactions that may be addressed by an improved understanding of the Mtb surface proteome, including the identification of novel vaccine targets as well as developing new approaches to interrogate host-pathogen interactions. Here, we sought to expand our understanding of the Mtb surface proteome in service of these knowledge gaps by adapting protease shaving protocols for multiplexed quantitative mass spectrometry. …”
