Pressure‐Assisted Drug Delivery Using High‐Pressure Balloon Platform Improves Vascular Drug Penetration and Anti‐Restenotic Effects

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A dual‐layer high‐pressure drug‐coated balloon (HP@DCB) increased balloon‐wall contact and promoted deeper paclitaxel (PTX) penetration than a conventional noncompliant DCB. In in vivo study, HP@DCB treatment improved luminal patency and reduced neointimal hyperplasia, supporting pressure‐assisted drug delivery as a promising strategy for enhancing the

Wandering Carotid Artery in Carotid Artery Stenting

Cureus
A wandering carotid artery is the rare phenomenon of the repeated migration of the carotid artery into the lateral and retropharyngeal spaces. We report a case of wandering carotid artery before and after carotid artery stenting (CAS). The patient was an 82-year-old female with symptomatic right internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis.

Carotid Artery Stent Placement

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2010
In the past 3 years, there have been significant developments in the field of carotid revascularization, including: 1) the results of a large primary stroke prevention trial; 2) the emergence of novel platforms for emboli protection; 3) improved characterization of the high-risk carotid artery stent (CAS) patient; 4) completion of several very large ...

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Restoring Endothelial Mitochondrial Homeostasis With a Bioactive Nanoshield Promotes Vascular Regeneration on Cardiovascular Implants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioactive poly(citrate‐polyglycol‐procyanidin) (PCGP) nanoshield is developed for cardiovascular implants to restore endothelial mitochondrial homeostasis following vascular injury. By preserving mitochondrial integrity, re‐establishing metabolic balance, and activating PI3K/Akt/eNOS‐NO signaling, the PCGP interface promotes functional endothelial ...
