Monocyte‐Differentiation‐Activated Fluorescent “Scout” Probe for Precise in Vivo Detection of Vulnerable Plaque

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, 13 February 2026.
An innovative monocyte‐differentiation‐activated fluorescent “scout” probe (MDAF) leverages the inherent chemotaxis of monocytes toward vulnerable plaques (VAP) to enable efficient targeted delivery while achieving spatiotemporally controllable activation of its AIE fluorescent signals with the dynamic differentiation of monocytes, providing an ...

Recycling of Polymer Components From Waste Face Masks for Asphalt Modification: A Mini Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 2, January 10, 2026.
ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic greatly increased plastic waste through widespread personal protective equipment (PPE) use, creating a serious environmental challenge. Disposable face masks (FM), primarily composed of non‐biodegradable polypropylene, account for an estimated 86 million units discarded monthly, leading to significant environmental ...

Selective cerebral perfusion for reduced cerebral blood flow during debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
A 69-year-old man with chest pain was diagnosed with acute type B aortic dissection with the entry tear located at distal arch and a distal aortic arch aneurysm. Therefore, we performed debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair 2 weeks after type B

Patient‐Specific Cerebral Blood Flow Models in Predicting Internal Carotid Artery Stenting Flows

Clinical Neuroimaging, Volume 3, Issue 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose It is well known that the blood flow rate in the internal carotid artery (ICA) improves following a stenting procedure. Endovascular neurosurgeons are interested in estimating this flow increase prior to the interventions. This study uses patient‐specific cerebral blood flow models to predict post‐stenting ICA flow rates

A Study on the Thermal Performance of Hollow Glass Windows With Reflective Aluminum Louvers

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study evaluates the energy‐saving potential of hollow glass windows integrated with reflective aluminum foil louvers, tailored for hot‐summer, cold‐winter regions. The reflective integration minimizes solar absorption and bolsters insulation. Experimental results indicate a 14.9% reduction in heat transfer coefficient (K) (from 2.427 to 2.066 W ...

Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Carotid‐Vertebrobasilar Anastomoses Detected by Ultrasound

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 2157-2169, November 2025.
In this case series, we aimed to evaluate the ultrasonic characteristics of 35 patients with persistent carotid‐vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA), a rare variant between the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation. Ultrasound detected seven (30.4%, 7/23) primitive trigeminal arteries (PTA), eight (100%, 8/8) primitive hypoglossal arteries (PHA ...
