Atherosclerosis: From Pathogenesis to Therapeutic Interventions

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2026.
The diagram outlines the core mechanisms driving atherosclerosis, including endothelial dysfunction, inflammatory responses, phenotypic switching of smooth muscle cells, and the gut–vascular axis. It also presents the corresponding therapeutic approaches now under development, such as gene therapies, immunotherapies, and nanotechnology platforms ...

Influencing Factors on the Degradation of PLA‐SPION Markers for Medical Devices in Magnetic Imaging Modalities—An In Vitro Study

open access: yesNano Select, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2026.
The influence of SPION mass fraction, pH/medium, initial coating mass, and carrier material on the degradation of PLA‐SPION markers for medical instruments is investigated. Especially, the pH and the surrounding medium strongly influence the degradation kinetics.

PDA‐Engineered 3D‐Printed Polymer–ZrO2 Hybrid Scaffolds Enabling Enhanced Radiopacity, Photothermal Therapy, and Cell Migration Modulation

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 61, 2 November 2026.
A multifunctional 3D‐printed polymer–ZrO2 scaffold is developed to provide intrinsic radiopacity, photothermal responsiveness, and surface bioactivity. Reinforcement with ZrO2 enables real‐time x‐ray visibility and mechanical robustness, while a polydopamine coating facilitates near‐infrared‐triggered drug release and modulates cell migration, thereby ...

Coating stent materials with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-poly(carbonateurea)urethane nanocomposites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The long-term efficacy of coronary or peripheral stenting is limited by in-stent restenosis (ISR), which occurs in 15 to 30% of patients and is attributed primarily to neointimal hyperplasia.

Stent Fracture after Everolimus-Eluting Stent Implantation

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2011
Compared with bare-metal stents, drug-eluting stents (DES) have greatly reduced the risk of in-stent restenosis (ISR) by inhibiting neointimal growth. Nevertheless, DES are still prone to device failure, which may lead to cardiac events.

Cardiovascular preventive role of thiazolidinedione in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 1986-1996, November 2026.
Among patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, thiazolidinedione use was independently associated with a significantly reduced risk of a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, and all‐cause death, notably without an increased risk of admission for heart failure. ABSTRACT Background Thiazolidinediones (TZD) are a
