Local Anesthesia in Carotid Angioplasty
Journal of Endovascular Therapy, 1996 Purpose: To determine the safety and efficacy of local anesthesia for percutaneous carotid angioplasty and stenting performed via a direct common carotid access. Methods: Deep cervical plexus blockade was used for anesthesia in 22 of 32 patients (26 males; mean age 66 years) undergoing percutaneous carotid balloon angioplasty and/or stenting via direct

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Eco‐friendly nanowave‐textured implants produced via femtosecond laser fabrication enhance bone regeneration by orchestrating a precise mechanotransduction cascade. This nanotopography directs mesenchymal stem cell alignment and cytoskeletal organization, triggering changes in nuclear shape and chromatin acetylation that prime cells for osteogenesis ...

High‐Throughput Microfluidic‐Mediated Assembly of Layer‐By‐Layer Nanoparticles
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly of polymer films on nanoparticle (NP) surfaces is a promising technique for targeted drug delivery. Despite its success in preclinical mouse models, a current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) compliant, clinical‐scale production method has been lacking.

A Vertically‐Stacked Optoelectronic Sensor for Localized Hemodynamics Monitoring
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work introduces a hemodynamics monitoring sensor that features vertically stacked microLEDs and a heterogeneously integrated photodetector. The vertically stacked microLEDs enable localized measurements, and by designing the interoptode distance according to the depth of the target region, this vertically stacked optoelectronic sensor is ...
