Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Is transfusion in coronary artery surgery a predictor or a cause of reduced long-term survival? [PDF]

, 2020
Background Transfusion is common after coronary bypass surgery. Transfused patients present with higher operative risk and an increased hazard ratio for curtailed long-term survival. There is debate as to whether transfusion itself may further exacerbate

Everolimus-eluting stents or bypass surgery for multivessel coronary disease.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2015
BACKGROUND Results of trials and registry studies have shown lower long-term mortality after coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) than after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among patients with multivessel disease.

Reservoir‐Type Subcutaneous Implantable Devices Containing Porous Rate Controlling Membranes for Sustained Delivery of Risperidone

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel implantable drug delivery systemwith a biodegradable poly(caprolactone) membrane and compressed drug core forsustained release. These implantable devices deliver risperidone in vitro for 170 days and in vivo for 49 days in rats, showing promise for chronic conditions like schizophrenia.

New-onset atrial fibrillation following coronary bypass surgery predicts long-term mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2015
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common postoperative complications following cardiac surgery. Recent evidence suggests that postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) may be more 'malignant' than previously thought, associated with follow-up ...
