Coagulative Granular Hydrogels with an Enzyme Catalyzed Fibrin Network for Endogenous Tissue Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Coagulative granular hydrogels are composed of packed thrombin‐functionalized microgels that catalyze the conversion of fibrinogen into a secondary fibrin network, filling the interstitial voids. This bio‐inspired approach stabilizes the biomaterial to match the robustness of bulk hydrogels without compromising injectability, mimicking the initial ...

Effects of higher dietary protein and fiber intakes at breakfast on postprandial glucose, insulin, and 24-H interstitial glucose in overweight adults [PDF]

, 2017
Dietary protein and fiber independently influence insulin-mediated glucose control. However, potential additive effects are not well-known. Men and women (n = 20; age: 26 ± 5 years; body mass index: 26.1 ± 0.2 kg/m²; mean ± standard deviation) consumed ...

Reconstruction of Glucose in Plasma from Interstitial Fluid Continuous Glucose Monitoring Data: Role of Sensor Calibration [PDF]

Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology, 2007
Background: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors measure glucose concentration in the interstitial fluid (ISF). Equilibration between plasma and ISF glucose is not instantaneous. Therefore, ISF and plasma glucose concentrations exhibit different dynamic patterns, particularly during rapid changes.
