Spatially Programmable Electroadhesive Enables In Situ Site‐Selective Functional Coupling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A light‐activated, in situ spatially programmable bioadhesive (STICH) enables microscale, site‐selective integration of bioelectronic devices with wet tissue. It achieves robust mechanical bonding and low‐impedance electrical coupling, enabling reconfigurable neuromodulation and directional electromechanical sensing in vivo and ex vivo.

Impact of an Emergency Department Observation Unit Management Algorithm for Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is a common, growing, and costly medical condition. We aimed to evaluate the impact of a management algorithm for symptomatic AF that used an emergency department observation unit on hospital admission rates and patient

Non-valvular atrial fibrillation and stroke : implications for management [PDF]

, 1995
Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation is more prevalent with increasing age. It is associated with a six-fold excess risk of stroke; and a cumulative lifetime stroke risk of 35%. 15% of ischaemic strokes are directly attributable to it.

Nanomodification of Polyethylene via Focused Electron Beam Irradiation: Controlled Crazing and Application to Crack Arresting

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Focused electron beam (FEB) irradiation precisely modifies polyethylene (PE) at the nanoscale, resulting in controlled crazing characterized by microvoids and microfibrils. Additionally, the technique can be applied for crack arrest under tensile stress.

Mesencephalic Astrocyte‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor Binds BAX to Preserve Mitochondrial Homeostasis and Energy Metabolism for Relieving Myocardial Hypertrophy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MANF in cardiomyocytes interacts with BAX to impede BAX mitochondrial translocation and cytochrome c release, further stabilizing mitochondrial structure and energy supply to relieve myocardial apoptosis and hypertrophy, which indicates MANF as a novel cardioprotective factor to have a promising clinical application for myocardial hypertrophy ...

Structural and Functional Versatility of the Amyloidogenic Non‐Amidated Variant of the Antimicrobial Peptide Citropin 1.3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Citropin 1.3 is an antimicrobial peptide derived from amphibians that forms amyloid structures. Here, the structural and functional properties of citropin 1.3 are characterized. Using high‐resolution imaging approaches, a variety of canonical and undescribed fibril morphologies are identified.

Loss of Hepatic Angiotensinogen Attenuates Diastolic Dysfunction in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Increased hepatic angiotensinogen (AGT) abundance leads to cardiac diastolic dysfunction via the AngII‐independent pathway. Liver‐derived AGT is internalized by LRP2 in cardiac endothelial cells, subsequently contributing to myocardial diastolic dysfunction by suppressing microvascular angiogenesis via inhibiting the GATA2/Pim3 pathway.
