A novel degradable PEG superparamagnetic iron oxide capsule coupled with a polyphenolic nano-enzymatic conjugate (PSPM-NE), to treat ROS-driven cardiovascular-diseases, tested in atherosclerosis as a model disease, and hypothesizing autoimmunity as an atheroma's trigger [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases account for a significant portion of the worldwide mortality rate. This aroused interest among the specialised scientific community, seeking for solutions based on non-clinical and clinical investigations, to shed light onto the ...

Single-leg cycling to maintain and improve function in healthy and clinical populations
Exercise with reduced muscle mass facilitates greater muscle-specific adaptations than training with larger muscle mass. The smaller active muscle mass can demand a greater portion of cardiac output which allows muscle(s) to perform greater work and ...
