Reactive rise in blood pressure upon cuff inflation: cuff inflation at the arm causes a greater rise in pressure than at the wrist in hypertensive patients.

, 2007
OBJECTIVE: Cuff inflation at the arm is known to cause an instantaneous rise in blood pressure, which might be due to the discomfort of the procedure and might interfere with the precision of the blood pressure measurement. In this study, we compared the

Liquid‐Responsive Shape‐Memory Nanofiber‐Reinforced Scaffolds for Cartilage Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A liquid‐responsive shape‐memory, nanofiber‐reinforced QCG scaffold combines conformal defect filling, an aligned architecture that is structurally permissive for endogenous cell infiltration, and sustained KGN release. This integrated design enhances BMSC viability, migratory activity, and chondrogenic differentiation and promotes hyaline cartilage ...

Impact of High-Efficiency Dialysis Modalities on Interdialytic Blood Pressure Profiles: A Randomized Cross-Over Study

Medicina
Background and Objectives: Interdialytic blood pressure (BP) better reflects volume status and cardiovascular risk in hemodialysis (HD) patients than peridialytic readings. High-efficiency dialysis techniques—online hemodiafiltration (HDF) in pre-, post-,

Smartphone‐Guided Visible Light Modulation of RSNOs for Antimicrobial Activity via Controlled Nitric Oxide Release

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A light‐activated catheter insert combines antimicrobial blue light with nitric oxide release to generate complementary oxidative and nitrosative stress, producing potent broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity. The approach achieves greater than 4‐log reductions in bacterial and fungal viability and significantly reduces Staphylococcus aureus ...

Closing the Loop: High‐Precision 3D Photofabrication in Living Tissues

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Writing 3D microstructures inside living tissue demands more than laser access; It demands information. Hierarchical sensing captures thermal and mechanical states across pulse‐train, voxel, and structure timescales, feeding a controller that steers the laser in real time.

Astrocytes Coordinate Neurovascular Coupling During Prolonged Sensory Demand via AQP4/TRPA1/BEST1/D‐Serine Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuronal activation leads to astrocytic transient volume changes, activating transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channels, leading to Ca2+ influx. Activation of TRPA1 causes the release of D‐serine through BEST1. Finally, the augmented extracellular levels of D‐serine boost neuronal activity by binding GluN1‐containing NMDARs, leading to CBV
