Nano‐Silver‐Selenium Liquid Dressing Facilitates Treatment of Monkeypox and Prevention of Viral Transmission in a Surrogate Mouse Model

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
There is no effective method to treat this virus and prevent its transmission. To address this, we have developed a nano‐silver‐selenium liquid dressing (AgSe@LD) by combining silver and selenium nanoparticles with commercial liquid dressings. This unique AgSe@LD formulation exhibits good adhesion, stability and toughness and demonstrates efficient ...

Serum Midkine as a Biomarker for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment Response and Prognostication

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Up‐to‐date, tumor markers are considered more helpful in the evaluation of treatment response and prognostication rather than diagnosis. Identifying a valid biomarker to help clinical management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still a challenge, especially the alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) negative HCC. This study evaluated the efficacy of serum Midkine
