Defect‐Rich 2D Layered Double Hydroxides Enhance Sonodynamic Antibacterial Therapy
This study develops defect‐rich ultrathin ZnCuW‐LDH nanosheets (DR‐ZnCuW‐LDH) via acid etching. DR‐ZnCuW‐LDH exhibits fourfold enhanced US‐triggered ROS production due to oxygen defects and electronic modulation, demonstrating potent antibacterial efficacy in vitro/vivo.

This single‐center retrospective study evaluated perioperative outcomes after hepatectomy in 749 patients, including 140 receiving ATT, using propensity score matching to compare ATT and non‐ATT cohorts. Under standardized perioperative management, ATT did not increase major bleeding, transfusion, or severe morbidity overall; however, within the ATT ...
