Mono‐ and Bivalent Poly(iso‐butylene)‐Alanines for Drug‐Delivery of Nimodipine and Triamcinolone Acetonide

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Mono‐ and bivalent‐, alanine‐modified poly‐iso‐butylenes, folding into beta‐sheets, were prepared by living carbocationic polymerization and subsequent endgroup modification. These PIB‐conjugates are useful as solid polymers for the drug release of triamcinolone and nimodipine. ABSTRACT Poly‐iso‐butylene (PIB) is a well known biocompatible polymer with

Chinese Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Rhinosinusitis (2024)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), a complex inflammatory disease with heterogeneous pathogenesis, demands evolving evidence‐based strategies. Since the 2018 Chinese guidelines and EPOS2020, international advances in CRS immunopathology and biologics have revolutionized therapeutic approaches, particularly through phenotype–endotype classification ...

Immediate Small Side Branch Occlusion after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention [PDF]

Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2007
Background: Small side branches, albeit less important than their larger counterparts, have not yet received due attention in the literature. Nor has there ever been a comparison between drug-eluting stents and bare metal stents apropos side branch ...

Interventional oncology in children: Where are we now?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Abstract Paediatric Interventional Oncology (IO) lags behind adult IO due to a scarcity of specific outcome data. The suboptimal way to evolve this field is relying heavily on adult experiences. The distinct tumour types prevalent in children, such as extracranial germ cell tumours, sarcomas, and neuroblastoma, differ strongly from those found in ...

Current State of Bioabsorbable Polymer-Coated Drug-Eluting Stents

Current Cardiology Reviews, 2017
Drug-eluting stents (DES) have been shown to significantly reduce clinical and angiograph-ic restenosis compared to bare metal stents (BMS). The polymer coatings on DES elute antiproliferative drugs to inhibit intimal proliferation and prevent restenosis

Far‐infrared irradiation attenuates platelet‐derived growth factor‐stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell migration through protein phosphatase 2A‐mediated Akt inhibition

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
FIR irradiation enhances the physical association between Akt and PP2Ac in VSMCs, independent of the hyperthermal effect of FIR rays. The increased binding between Akt and PP2Ac induced by FIR irradiation facilitates the dephosphorylation of Akt at Ser473.
