The Future of Cardiovascular Stents: Bioresorbable and Integrated Biosensor Technology
Cardiovascular disease is the greatest cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerosis is the underlying pathology responsible for two thirds of these deaths. It is the age‐dependent process of “furring of the arteries.” In many scenarios the disease is caused

Bioresorbable Scaffold Technologies
Fully bioabsorbable scaffolds (BRS) are a novel approach that provides transient vessel support with drug delivery capability without the long-term limitations of the metallic drug-eluting stents (DES), such as permanent caging with or without malapposition.

Usually elegant and sometimes ingenious, most innovations in interventional cardiology represent incremental advances. Quantum leaps are rare. A major transformation in practice occurred when bare metal stents (BMS) replaced balloon angioplasty, because stenting could scaffold intimal tears, reduce elastic recoil, and prevent negative remodeling.1 ...

Supra and subgingival application of antiseptics or antibiotics during periodontal therapy
Abstract Periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) are characterized by inflammatory processes which arise as a result of disruption of the balance in the oral ecosystem. According to the current S3 level clinical practice guidelines, therapy of patients with periodontitis involves a stepwise approach that includes the control of the patient ...
