    Abstract Cardiovascular disease due to atherosclerosis is the number one cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In the past twenty years, compelling preclinical and clinical data have indicated that a maladaptive inflammatory response plays a crucial role in the development of atherosclerosis initiation and progression in the vasculature, all the way to the onset of life-threatening cardiovascular events. Furthermore, inflammation is key to heart and brain damage and healing after myocardial infarction or stroke. Recent evidence indicates that this interplay between the vasculature, organs target of ischemia and the immune system is mediated by the activation of hematopoietic organs (bone marrow and spleen). In this evolving landscape, non-invasive imaging is becoming more and more essential to support either mechanistic preclinical studies to investigate the role of inflammation in cardiovascular disease (CVD), or as a translational tool to quantify inflammation in the cardiovascular system and hematopoietic organs in patients. In this review paper, we will describe the clinical applications of non-invasive imaging to quantify inflammation in the vasculature, infarcted heart and brain, and hematopoietic organs in patients with cardiovascular disease, with specific focus on [18F]FDG PET and other novel inflammation-specific radiotracers. Furthermore, we will briefly describe the most recent clinical applications of other imaging techniques such as MRI, SPECT, CT, CEUS and OCT in this arena.

    Abstract Nanomedicine research is an active field that produces thousands of studies every year. However, translation of nanotherapeutics to the clinic has yet to catch up with such a vast output. In recent years, the need to better understand nanomedicines' in vivo behavior has been identified as one of the major challenges for efficient clinical translation. In this context, noninvasive imaging offers attractive solutions to provide valuable information about nanomedicine biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, stability, or therapeutic efficacy. Here, we review the latest imaging approaches used in the development of therapeutic nanomedicines, discuss why these strategies bring added value along the translational pipeline, and give a perspective on future advances in the field.

    Abstract Myocardial infarction, stroke, mental disorders, neurodegenerative processes, autoimmune diseases, cancer and the human immunodeficiency virus impact the haematopoietic system, which through immunity and inflammation may aggravate pre-existing atherosclerosis. The interplay between the haematopoietic system and its modulation of atherosclerosis has been studied by imaging the cardiovascular system and the activation of haematopoietic organs via scanners integrating positron emission tomography and resonance imaging (PET/MRI). In this Perspective, we review the applicability of integrated whole-body PET/MRI for the study of immune-mediated phenomena associated with haematopoietic activity and cardiovascular disease, and discuss the translational opportunities and challenges of the technology.

    Abstract Introduction: The objective was to characterize real-world outcomes of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between antiretrovirals (ARVs) and other drugs, including over-the-counter medications (OTC), and treatment outcomes in clinical practice.
    Methods: www.clinicalcasesDDIs.com is an open-access website for healthcare providers to consult and briefly describe real-world clinical cases on DDI with ARVs. We reviewed all the clinical cases reported to the website between March 2019 and May 2023.
    Results: A total of 139 cases were reported, mostly involving ritonavir or cobicistat (boosters; 74 cases), unboosted integrase inhibitors (InSTI; 29 cases), and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI; 23 cases). Central nervous system drugs (29 cases) and cardiovascular drugs (19 cases) were the most frequently described co-medications. Notably, OTC medications were implicated in 27 cases, including mineral supplements (11 cases), herbals (8 cases), weight loss drugs (4 cases), anabolic steroids (3 cases), and recreational drugs (1 case). OTC acted as the perpetrator drug in 21 cases, leading to loss of ARV efficacy in 17 instances (mineral supplements in 10 cases, weight loss drugs in 4 cases, herbals in 3 cases). Additionally, toxicity was reported in 4 out of 6 cases where OTC was considered the victim drug of the DDI (anabolic steroids in 3 cases, MDMA in 1 case).
    Conclusions: Frequent unwanted outcomes resulting from DDIs between ARVs and OTC medications underscore the importance of integrating non-prescription drugs into medication reconciliation. The real-world data available through www.clinicalcasesDDIs.com serves as a valuable resource for assessing the clinical relevance of DDIs.
