Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 939-945, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Objective Inhalational burns frequently lead to dysphonia and airway stenosis. We hypothesize local dexamethasone delivery via a novel drug‐eluting electrospun polymer‐mesh endotracheal tube (ETT) reduces biomechanical and histologic changes in the vocal folds in inhalational burn. Methods Dexamethasone‐loaded polymer mesh was electrospun onto

Pyrophosphate as a novel anticoagulant for storage of whole blood: A proof‐of‐concept study
Transfusion, Volume 63, Issue 7, Page 1392-1398, July 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Citrate is the only anticoagulant currently Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‐approved for the long‐term storage of blood for transfusion. Citrate inhibits phosphofructokinase and may play a pro‐inflammatory role, suggesting that there may be an advantage to using alternative anticoagulants.
