Enhanced Endoscopic Internal Drainage of Gastric Abscess Through Additively Manufactured Stents

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Postoperative gastric leaks are often treated with off‐label biliary double‐pigtail stents, yet conventional extruded designs are not optimized for leak anatomy, can migrate, and may limit abscess evacuation. PETALS is introduced to optimize transmural drainage geometry and enable patient‐specific 3D‐printable stents.

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Engineering Resatorvid‐Loaded Sub‐Microgels of Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate/Hyaluronic Acid to Treat Acute Lung Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents HAEP@Res sub‐microgels as a lung‐targeted delivery system integrating antioxidant activity with anti‐inflammatory therapy. The sub‐microgels demonstrate excellent biocompatibility, efficiently scavenge intracellular ROS, and downregulate pro‐inflammatory cytokines and genes in a Bleo‐induced ALI mouse model. These findings highlight

BIRTHWEIGHT AND SUSCEPTIBILITY TO CHRONIC DISEASE [PDF]

open access: possible, 2023
The thesis examines the relationship of birthweight to risk factors and markers, such as proteinuria and glomerular filtration rate, for chronic disease in postnatal life. It made use of the Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle Study (AusDiab). The AusDiab study is a cross sectional study where baseline data on 11,247 participants were collected ...

Heck's Disease: Diagnosis and Susceptibility

Pediatric Dermatology, 2009
Abstract:  Focal epithelial hyperplasia, or Heck's disease, is an uncommon proliferation of oral mucosa that presents primarily in Native Central and South American populations. It presents as asymptomatic papules or nodules on the oral mucosa, gingiva, tongue, and lips. In the majority of cases, human papilloma virus 13 or 32 is detected. Factors that

The genetic susceptibility to Graves' disease

Baillière's Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1997
Graves' disease (GD) develops as a result of a complex interaction between genetic susceptibility genes and likely environmental factors. Most epidemiological data support an important genetic contribution to the development of GD. The concordance rate of GD in monozygotic twins is 30-60% and in dizygotic twins 3-9%, and thyroid autoantibodies have ...

Genetic analysis of disease susceptibility (disease susceptibility)

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1995
Abstract:The human Genome Project has provided valuable took for the analysis of genetic traits in both humans and experimental mammals. A discussion of these tools and of some of the applications underway at the Hall Institute is provided.

Xenogenetics in multifactorial disease susceptibility

Trends in Genetics, 1995
Susceptibility to multifactorial disease includes both genetic and environmental components. These two aspects of susceptibility are interlinked through genetic control of an individual's response to the environment. As a first step in identifying disease susceptibility genes that influence the response of an individual to foreign compounds ...

Genetic susceptibility to infectious diseases

Reproductive Toxicology, 2006
The clinical outcome of infectious disease (ID) is determined by a complex interaction between microorganism, host genetic factors and environment. Epidemiological studies have revealed differences within and between populations exposed to the same infectious agent, and in the prevalence or severity of the disease, underlying the relevance of the ...

The Susceptibility Pathogenesis of Moyamoya Disease

World Neurosurgery, 2017
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a cerebrovascular disease characterized by progressive stenosis of the intracranial internal carotid arteries and their proximal branches. Epidemiologically, MMD is more prevalent in East Asia than any other region worldwide, and has been estimated at 0.94 per 100,000 in the Japanese and 0.43 per 100,000 in the Chinese ...
