Interfacing exogenous stents with human coronary artery by self-assembled coating: designs, functionalities and applications

NPG Asia Materials
Drug-eluting stents are a commonly used treatment for coronary artery disease. However, the coatings used in drug-eluting stents have some limitations such as poor biocompatibility and drug loading capacity.

Very late stent thrombosis of Sirolimus-eluting stent 59 months after implantation: A first report from the Middle-East and review of literature

Heart Views, 2011
Very late stent thrombosis occurs more frequently with drug-eluting stents and tends to occur despite dual antiplatelet therapy or after long periods of clopidogrel discontinuation.

Biological aspects of radiation and drug-eluting stents for the prevention of restenosis [PDF]

, 2017
Based on recent advances, this article aims to review the biological basis for the use of either radiation or drug-eluting stents for the prevention of restenosis, and to elucidate the complementary role that they may play in the future.

Mystery and misery of locally‐delivered drug therapy in periodontics. Historical concepts and current state

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The primary objective is to critically analyze approaches to local therapy for periodontal disease, particularly in light of its well‐established systemic implications. We specifically address common misconceptions and overestimations regarding the potential of local treatments in contrast to their actual clinical effectiveness.

Examination of the coatings of coronary stents [PDF]

, 2006
In our study the main properties of coated coronary stents are shown, such as foreshortening, recoil, surface features and failures and the expansion properties. The types and the effects of active and passive coatings are introduced.

On the role of specific drug binding in modelling arterial eluting stents [PDF]

, 2016
In this paper we consider drug binding in the arterial wall following delivery by a drug-eluting stent. Whilst it is now generally accepted that a non-linear saturable reversible binding model is required to properly describe the binding process, the ...

Investigations into the characterization, degradation, and applications of biodegradable polymers by mass spectrometry

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 947-988, November/December 2025.
Abstract Biodegradable polymers have been getting more and more attention because of their contribution to the plastic pollution environmental issues and to move towards a circular economy. Nevertheless, biodegradable materials still exhibit various disadvantages restraining a widespread use in the market.
