Life‐Threatening Bradycardia in Anti‐NMDA‐Receptor Encephalitis and a Novel Use for Permanent Pacing

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis (pNMDARE) is an autoantibody‐mediated disorder that can cause severe autonomic dysfunction, including symptomatic bradycardia and asystole. Dysautonomia can last for years, making it very challenging to manage.

Effective Sliding Motions of Vibration‐Induced Emission Stoppers in Mechanically Interlocked Molecules as Artificial Muscle Tougheners and In Situ Molecular Shuttling Sensors for Self‐Healable Mechano‐Fluorescent Polyurethane Organogels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The self‐healable ratiometric mechano‐fluorescent polyurethane (PU) organogel is constructed by incorporating a minor amount (ca. 1.5 wt.%) of the unconventional daisy chain rotaxane (as an artificial molecular muscle toughener) with specific sliding motions and ratiometric emission behaviors into the PU skeleton, which reveals the progressed intrinsic

The Tele-ICU [PDF]

AMA Journal of Ethics, 2014
Telemedicine intensive care units enable off-site physicians to cover many care centers, thereby increasing efficiency and access to care, although their use also raises concerns about varying standards of care, unreliable equipment, the erosion of trust in the patient-physician relationship, and the adequacy of the informed consent process.

Extracellular Vesicle‐Delivered tRF‐His‐GTG‐1 Reprograms Neutrophil Lipophagy and Triggers Inflammation in COVID‐19

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies platelet‐derived extracellular vesicles as key immunometabolic regulators in COVID‐19. The delivery of tRF‐His‐GTG‐1 to neutrophils activates TLR8mTOR signaling, disrupts lipophagy, and amplifies NET‐mediated inflammation. Importantly, targeting this axis restores neutrophil homeostasis, offering a potential therapeutic strategy ...
