Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...

Unexpected venous diameter reduction by compression stocking of deep, but not of superficial veins

Veins and Lymphatics, 2012
Morphological studies on the effect of compression on the leg veins are rare and mostly performed in the supine position. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of compression applied with different pressures on the venous calibre in the ...

Nanoengineered Binetworks in Multifunctional Anionic Block Polymer Mesoblends for Improved Mechanical Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesoblends consist of a nanostructured polymer into which a second polymer is imbibed with a selective solvent. In this work, a solvent‐templatable pentablock terpolymer possessing a sulfonated midblock is modified with a hydrophilic polymer that is photocrosslinked in situ, yielding a hierarchical binetwork.

Side effects of compression stockings: a case report [PDF]

British Journal of General Practice, 2014
Compression stockings play an important role in the management of venous disease, venous ulcers, and preventing thromboembolic disease of the deep venous system in the legs1. Most patients admitted to hospital are automatically at a higher risk of developing thromboembolic disease and should therefore receive appropriate prophylaxis2.

Compression Stockings Suppressed Reduced Muscle Blood Volume and Oxygenation Levels Induced by Persistent Sitting

Applied Sciences, 2019
This study quantitatively analyzed the effects of 3 h of constant sitting on skeletal muscle oxygenation in the lower extremities, using near-infrared time-resolved spectroscopy (NIRTRS). The effects of compression stockings were also evaluated.
