Effectiveness of LDL Apheresis Techniques for Reducing LDL‐C in Familial Hypercholesterolemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common inherited disorder characterized by markedly elevated low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) levels and an increased risk of premature cardiovascular disease. LDL apheresis is an extracorporeal procedure used to remove atherogenic lipoproteins from the circulation and is an ...

Assembly of Bioactive Superstructures via Metal-Phenolic Complexation for Blood Purification. [PDF]
Bioactive superstructures are assembled via metal–phenolic‐mediated assembly on agarose templates, followed by modification with human serum albumin. These superstructures demonstrate high bilirubin adsorption efficiency, strong antibacterial activity, and anticoagulant activity, providing a strategy for the rational design of multifunctional blood ...
