Cardiac and vascular effects of low-dose steroids during the early phase of septic shock: An echocardiographic study

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundLow-dose steroids are known to increase arterial pressure during septic shock through restoration of vasopressor response to norepinephrine. However, their effects on cardiac performance and ventriculo-arterial coupling (VAC) have never been ...

Dendrimer Conjugates with PD‐L1‐Binding Peptides Enhance In Vivo Antitumor Immune Response

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this paper, a novel nanoparticle scaffold composed of dendrimers conjugated with peptide‐based immune checkpoint inhibitors, enhancing drug delivery efficacy is introduced. By conjugating PD‐L1‐binding peptides to dendrimers, multivalent binding effects are harnessed, resulting in enhanced binding affinity, prolonged half‐life, and improved ...

Pre-hospital management of acute Addison’s Disease – Audit of patients attending a referral hospital in a regional area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Context: Adrenal crises (AC) cause morbidity and mortality in patients with Addison’s disease [primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI)]. Patient-initiated oral stress dosing, with parenteral hydrocortisone, is recommended to avert ACs. While these should be

High‐Yield Bioproduction of Extracellular Vesicles from Stem Cell Spheroids via Millifluidic Vortex Transport

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Stem cell spheroids, produced via a high‐throughput microfabrication technique, are transported within a vortex generated at the outlet channels of a cross‐slot millifluidic chip. For Reynolds number exceeding 170–200, intermittent high shear stresses applied to each spheroid within the vortex trigger a massive release of biologically active ...

Hydrocortisone therapy for patients with septic shock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Hydrocortisone is widely used in patients with septic shock even though a survival benefit has been reported only in patients who remained hypotensive after fluid and vasopressor resuscitation and whose plasma cortisol levels did not rise ...
