Salt‐Compact Albumin as a New Pure Protein‐based Biomaterials: From Design to In Vivo Studies
Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.A new class of materials built entirely of native albumin protein is designed using a simple protocol based on salt‐assisted compaction, breaking with current crosslinking strategies. This green process leads, surprisingly, to water‐insoluble handable materials with high preservation of their native protein structures and Young's modulus close to that ...

High flow nasal therapy in perioperative medicine: from operating room to general ward
BMC Anesthesiology, 2018 Background High flow nasal therapy (HFNT) is a technique in which humidified and heated gas is delivered to the airways through the nose via small nasal prongs at flows that are higher than the rates generally applied during conventional oxygen therapy ...

A Reinforcement Learning Approach to Weaning of Mechanical Ventilation in Intensive Care Units [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The management of invasive mechanical ventilation, and the regulation of sedation and analgesia during ventilation, constitutes a major part of the care of patients admitted to intensive care units. Both prolonged dependence on mechanical ventilation and premature extubation are associated with increased risk of complications and higher hospital costs,

Morphine activates neuroinflammation in a manner parallel to endotoxin [PDF]
, 2012 Opioids create a neuroinflammatory response within the CNS, compromising opioid-induced analgesia and contributing to various unwanted actions. How this occurs is unknown but has been assumed to be via classic opioid receptors.

Epidural Analgesia Decreases Narcotic Requirements in Low Level Spina Bifida Patients Undergoing Urologic Laparotomy for Neurogenic Bladder and Bowel [PDF]
, 2018 Purpose Concern of anatomical anomalies and worsening neurologic symptoms has prevented widespread use of epidural catheters in patients with low level spina bifida (LLSB). We hypothesize that thoracic epidural placement in the T9-T10 interspace is safe

Immunosuppressive Formulations for Immunological Defense against Traumatic Brain Injury
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A novel subcutaneous formulation combining alpha‐ketoglutarate, glycolysis inhibitor PFK15, and a myelin peptide reduces inflammation in a mouse TBI model. This formulation promotes regulatory immune cells, enhances autophagy, and improves motor function, suggesting its potential as a prophylactic immunosuppressive therapy to mitigate TBI‐induced ...

Thermal Processing Creates Water‐Stable PEDOT:PSS Films for Bioelectronics
Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 13, April 2, 2025.Instead of using chemical cross–linkers, it is shown that PEDOT:PSS thin films for bioelectronics become water‐stable after a simple heat treatment. The heat treatment is compatible with a range of rigid and elastomeric substrates and films are stable in vivo for >20 days.
