A Multicenter, Open‐Label Study to Assess the Safety of Nebulized Tissue Plasminogen Activator for the Acute Treatment of Pediatric Plastic Bronchitis: The PLATyPuS Trial

open access: yesPharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric plastic bronchitis (PB) is a rare complication of surgically palliated congenital heart disease (CHD). Fibrin casts obstruct airways and can cause respiratory distress. There are no therapeutics approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration to treat PB, but inhaled tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) has been

Atomic Force Microscopy‐Based Nanomechanical Signatures for Staging Classification and Drug Response in Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) reveals nanomechanical fingerprints (NMFs) that track the progression of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) and response to therapy. These NMFs correlate with collagen I content and gene expression, offering a novel biomarker for disease staging and treatment monitoring.
