Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

The Quality of life of patients with morbid obesity before and after gastric banding and gastric bypass

open access: yesОжирение и метаболизм, 2014
In order to estimate the quality of life in bariatric surgery patients usually two scales are used: GIQLI (gastrointestinal Quality of life index) and BAROS (Bariatric analysis and reporting outcome system). In our work we used the original estimation of

Changes in Telomere Length 3-5 years after Gastric Bypass Surgery

open access: yesInternational Journal of Obesity, 2017
Increased inflammation and oxidative stress associated with obesity can accelerate aging. Telomere length (TL) has the capacity to serve as an aging indicator at the cellular level. Obesity has a known association with shorter TL. This study evaluated TL
