Padua Prediction Score and Hospital-Acquired Proximal and Isolated Distal Deep Vein Thrombosis in Symptomatic Patients

open access: yesHematology Reports
Background: Hospital-acquired deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of proximal lower limb DVT and isolated distal DVT (IDDVT) and their ...

The effect of phosphatidyl choline on the degradation of phosphatidyl ethanolamine by the phospholipase of post-heparin plasma or snake venom

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1964
The degradation of phosphatidyl ethanolamine by human post-heparin plasma phospholipase is not significantly affected by phosphatidyl choline added to the assay system as an aqueous emulsion. However, when the two phospholipids are combined in chloroform–

Impact of Textile Architecture on the Electromechanical Behavior of Conductive Carbon: Silicone Composite Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A stretchable carbon composite is integrated by stencil printing onto two different types of textile, with different yarn morphologies. The impact of the knit structure and coating direction on the performance of the sensor composite is evaluated and used to derive a model estimating nominal resistance at a given strain near the percolation threshold ...

Numerical Investigation of a Dual‐Mode Shape Memory Alloy Stent Enabling Secondary Expansion via Focused Ultrasound: A Potential Strategy for Correcting In‐Stent Restenosis

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a novel noninvasive strategy to treat in‐stent restenosis using focused ultrasound. A shape memory alloy stent initially expands at body temperature. If restenosis occurs, targeted ultrasound heating thermally actuates the stent, enabling a secondary expansion to reopen the blocked vessel, offering a potential alternative to ...

The effect of combined oral contraceptives on thrombin generation assessed on ST Genesia– a paired clinical study

open access: yesThrombosis Journal
Background Treatment with combined oral contraceptives (COC) is associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism. Several changes of coagulant and anticoagulant factors induced by ethinyloestradiol during treatment with COC, have been ...

On‐Demand Activation of Thin Alginate Shell Encapsulated Volatile Liquid for Untethered Pneumatic Soft Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Phase‐changing liquids enable untethered pneumatic actuation in soft robotics but suffer from volatility and storage challenges. This work reports a simple method to encapsulate Novec 7000 within micron‐thin alginate shells via in situ injection and ionic crosslinking.

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Thrombomodulin is a stronger indicator of combined oral contraceptives-induced activated protein C pathway resistance in the thrombin generation test than activated protein C

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundThe mechanism by which combined oral contraceptives (COCs) lead to hypercoagulation is not fully understood, although activated protein C (APC) pathway resistance has been implicated.

Microporous Microgel Assemblies Facilitating the Recruitment and Osteogenic Differentiation of Progenitor Cells for Bone Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
There is a significant need for biomaterials with well‐defined stability and bioactivity to support tissue regeneration. In this study, we developed a tunable microgel platform that enables the decoupling of stiffness from porosity, thereby promoting bone regeneration.
