Selective depletion of factor XI or factor XII with antisense oligonucleotides attenuates catheter thrombosis in rabbits.

Blood, 2014
Central venous catheter thrombosis can cause venous obstruction and pulmonary embolism. To determine the extent to which catheter thrombosis is triggered by the contact or extrinsic pathway of coagulation, we used antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) to ...

Streamlined Inkjet‐Printing of Stretchable Organic Photodetectors

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work introduces stretchable photodetectors fully inkjet‐printed on stretchable substrates. It is demonstrated that printed stiff platforms effectively decouple strain from the stretched substrate and serve as a chemically resistant and mechanically rigid platform.

Pigmentary keratitis and mixed chromatophoroma in a betta fish (Betta splendens)

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 587-592, December 2022., 2022
Graphical Abstract This clinical case report describes a <1 year old betta fish that developed pigmentary keratitis, anterior uveitis, and a mixed chromatophoroma that led to the patient's death. A review of available anecdotal and scientific literature suggests that there may have been a genetic cause for these health problems.

Characterization of Conventional Endovascular Devices in Treatment of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]

arXiv
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) are often repaired through an Endovascular approach known as EVAR. The success and duration of these challenging procedures are primarily attributable to the accuracy and reliability of navigating corresponding interventional devices.

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.

Clinical outcomes of single incision laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer: A propensity score‐matched analysis between well‐experienced and novice surgeons

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 102-109, January 2023., 2023
SILS is a technically challenging procedure for novice surgeons. We evaluate the clinical outcomes of SILS for colorectal cancer performed by novice surgeons. SILS was safely performed by novice surgeons under the guidance of well‐experienced surgeons, and could provide satisfactory oncological outcomes. Abstract Background Single incision laparoscopic

Cosserat Rods for Modeling Tendon-Driven Robotic Catheter Systems [PDF]

arXiv
Tendon-driven robotic catheters are capable of precise execution of minimally invasive cardiac procedures including ablations and imaging. These procedures require accurate mathematical models of not only the catheter and tendons but also their interactions with surrounding tissue and vasculature in order to control the robot path and interaction.

A Bistable Assistive Device for Wireless Control of a Dysfunctional Bladder Under Minimal Stress

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper presents a wireless system designed to restore bladder function in patients with an underactive bladder (UAB). The system features a multilayered structure, combining a pre‐shaped restoration layer with a spring‐based actuator. The system delivers 95–100% voiding efficiency within a 10‐s activation while ensuring minimal stress on the ...

Do postoperative infectious complications really affect long‐term survival in colorectal cancer surgery? A multicenter retrospective cohort study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 110-120, January 2023., 2023
This multicenter retrospective cohort study suggested that postoperative infection (PI) after curative colorectal surgery (CRC) is associated with impaired oncological outcomes. Strategies to prevent PI and implement appropriate postoperative treatment may improve the quality of care and oncological outcomes in patients undergoing curative CRC surgery.
