Arthroscopic Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair Without Anchors for Chronic Lateral Ankle Instability

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, arthroscopic anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) repair techniques have been increasingly used in the treatment of chronic ankle instability. Arthroscopic approaches not only allow for the management of concomitant intra‐articular pathologies but also help minimize wound‐related complications associated with open surgery and ...

Techniques of Arthroscopic Anterior Syndesmosis Stabilization

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Ankle sprains are among the most common sports‐related musculoskeletal injuries. Injury to the anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament, resulting in anterior syndesmotic instability, is frequently overlooked and inadequately treated. The purpose of this technical note is to (1) describe clinical examination maneuvers used to assess anterior ...

Designing and Constructing Blood Flow Monitoring System to Predict Pressure Ulcers on Heel

Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering, 2014
Background: A pressure ulcer is a complication related to the need for the care and treatment of primarily disabled and elderly people. With the decrease of the blood flow caused by the pressure loaded, ulcers are formed and the tissue will be wasted ...

Immunoinformatics‐Based Design of a Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Targeting a Conserved Copper–Associated Protein in Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae poses an urgent public health challenge due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance and the absence of an effective vaccine. Targeting conserved bacterial pathways involved in essential physiological processes may provide new opportunities for vaccine antigen discovery.

Effect of Pressure Loading on Heel Skin Temperature and Moisture in Healthy Volunteers: Preliminary Results

Biology
Recent studies emphasize the significance of skin microclimate in the prevention of pressure injuries (PI). The objective was to evaluate the effect of pressure loading on skin temperature and moisture in the heels of healthy adults. This is a before-and-

Harnessing ferroptosis from multilayer defense networks to nanoplatforms for specific cancer therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials target metabolically‐regulated ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Iron‐based or alternative nanoplatforms integrate ferroptosis with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. They enable stimulus‐responsive therapies (photothermal, photodynamic, sonodynamic) activated by near‐infrared, light, or ultrasound, achieving potent synergistic ...

Optimization of CEST MRI Reporter Protein Design Using Cation‐Pi Networks

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A novel engineering approach can produce reporter proteins for cell and viral therapy tracking with unique magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signatures, detectable with chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST). We discover how cation‐π interactions between amino acid groups can help us fine‐tune magnetic resonance properties for noninvasive ...

Clinical Model‐Informed Precision Dosing Consult Service for Accelerating Personalized Medication in Pediatric Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Traditional dosing strategies often rely on a “one‐size‐fits‐all” paradigm, assuming an “average” patient with typical demographic and pharmacological characteristics. In reality, this often overlooks existing between‐patient variability and can lead to suboptimal drug exposure or toxicity. This issue is especially pronounced in pediatric patients, who

A Review of Grain Boundaries: Formation Mechanism, Synthesis Strategy, and Application in Electrocatalysis

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
An overview of grain boundary engineering in the field of electrocatalysis. ABSTRACT Key electrocatalytic reactions such as HER, OER, ORR, CO2RR, and NRR offer promising routes for storing renewable energy as chemical fuels. However, their widespread application is constrained due to the lack of highly active and stable catalysts. Grain boundaries (GBs)
