Survey of Patients' Knowledge and Opinions regarding the Use of Indwelling Urinary Catheters

open access: yes, 2011
In a survey of patients with short-term indwelling urinary catheters, 47% were aware that catheters cause urinary tract infections, 89% believed that catheters were not overused, and 68% preferred catheter placement rather than use of a bedside commode ...

Encapsulated Leptin‐Producing Cells Facilitate Entrainment of Circadian Rhythms in Rodents and Nonhuman Primates

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A clinically translatable cell line can be engineered to produce leptin, encapsulated in biomaterial and safely implanted to produce and deliver the metabolic regulating protein within the body. Implantation of these encapsulated cells decreases the time it takes for mice and non‐human primates to adjust to circadian disruptions similar to those ...

Chest Tube Drainage of the Pleural Space: A Concise Review for Pulmonologists

open access: yesTuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases, 2018
Chest tube insertion is a common procedure usually done for the purpose of draining accumulated air or fluid in the pleural cavity. Small-bore chest tubes (≤14F) are generally recommended as the first-line therapy for spontaneous pneumothorax in non ...

Single‐Dose TACE‐Like Injection of Sustained‐Release Panobinostat/IL‐12 Polymeric Microparticles is Effective in Preclinical Liver Cancer Models

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel PLGA/PBAE polymer microparticle platform revolutionizes intermediate‐stage liver cancer treatment by co‐delivering panobinostat and IL‐12 via a single TACE‐like injection. This sustained‐release system overcomes tumor immunosuppression, triggers robust innate and adaptive immune responses, and establishes tertiary lymphoid structures ...

Lactobacillus‐Loaded Bioadhesive Hydrogel with Prolonged Retention and Microenvironmental Remodeling for Endometrial Repair and Fertility Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioactive adhesive hydrogel capable of long‐term uterine retention (>14 days) and local microenvironment modulation is developed by straightforward integration of α‐lipoic acid, L‐arginine, tannic acid, and Lactobacillus johnsonii, which can markedly enhance endometrial repair and restore fertility in a rat model of endometrial injury.

An Intravesical Akkermansia muciniphila‐Based Chemo‐Immunotherapeutic Platform for Bladder Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila is engineered into an intravesical F127/doxorubicin platform that couples localized chemotherapy with immune remodeling. By inducing apoptosis, ferroptosis, and immunogenic cell death, this chemo‐immunotherapeutic system enhances dendritic‐cell maturation, antigen cross‐presentation, and tumor‐specific CD8+ T‐cell ...

One‐Step Immobilized Phage Depolymerase Coatings for Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) caused by drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria remain a major clinical challenge. Here, a polydopamine‐assisted depolymerase coating degrades bacterial capsules and restores serum‐mediated killing, effectively suppressing biofilms and reducing bacterial burden in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, presenting a
