Systematic review and meta‐analysis of frailty as a predictor of morbidity and mortality after major abdominal surgery

open access: yesBJS Open, 2017
Frailty is associated with poor prognosis, but the multitude of definitions and scales of assessment makes the impact on outcomes difficult to assess. The aim of this study was to quantify the effect of frailty on postoperative morbidity and mortality ...

Leucine‐Rich Repeat‐Containing G Protein‐Coupled Receptor 6 Ameliorates Pressure Overload‐Induced Cardiac Hypertrophy by Regulating Cardiomyocyte Metabolic Reprogramming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
LGR6 overexpression ameliorates cardiac hypertrophy by regulating metabolic reprogramming through USP4‐PPARα pathway. Abstract Metabolic reprogramming is a pivotal mechanism in the pathogenesis of pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Leucine‐rich repeat‐containing G protein‐coupled receptor 6 (Lgr6) has emerged as a significant player in cardiovascular ...

Bioengineered Tumor‐Derived Extracellular Vehicles Suppressed Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis and Bevacizumab Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The upregulated CCL24 in CRC liver metastasis promotes the formation of inflammatory tumor‐associated fibroblast subsets and induces resistance to bevacizumab therapy. Downregulation of CCL24 significantly increased sensitivity to antiangiogenic therapy in CRC mouse model. Hence, a novel therapeutic target is identified for patients with CRC with liver

Patient-specific simulation of stent-graft deployment within an abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]

open access: yes3rd International Conference on Computational and Mathematical Biomedical Engineering, 16 au 18 d\'ecembre 2013, Hong Kong, Kowloon Hong Kong : Hong Kong (2013), 2014
In this study, finite element analysis is used to simulate the surgical deployment procedure of a bifurcated stent-graft on a real patient's arterial geometry. The stent-graft is modeled using realistic constitutive properties for both the stent and most importantly for the graft. The arterial geometry is obtained from pre-operative imaging exam.

Microneedle Patch for In Situ Neutrophil Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An in situ chromogenic microneedle patch that achieves daily blood neutrophil monitoring without vascular invasion or laboratory apparatus is developed. The detection ability is well demonstrated in a chemotherapy‐induced neutropenic rat model and can be read out using a mobile phone application.
