Aortic aneurysm management results through one year with a conformable neck sealing endograft and preemptive sac embolization with shape memory polymer devices

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
Management of abdominal aortic aneurysm includes reducing the incidence of endoleaks and promoting sac regression. Sac embolization has been shown to promote regression but alone may not adequately address type II endoleak risk.

Biomimetic Iridescent Skin: Robust Prototissues Spontaneously Assembled from Photonic Protocells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Uniform nanoparticles are induced to form arrays (photonic crystals) in the cores of biopolymer capsules, endowing these ‘protocells’ with structural color. These protocells are then assembled into large self‐standing objects, i.e., prototissues, with robust mechanical properties as well as iridescent optical properties.

Cardiopulmonary crisis caused by bronchial blocker malposition in a patient with aberrant tracheal anatomy: a case report

BMC Anesthesiology
Background Double-lumen tubes (DLTs) and bronchial blockers (BBs) can be used to establish one-lung ventilation (OLV) for thoracic surgery. BBs are a good alternative when DLTs are not suitable or patients have difficult airways.

Implementation of Drug‐Induced Rhabdomyolysis and Acute Kidney Injury in Microphysiological System

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A modular Muscle–Kidney proximal tubule‐on‐a‐chip integrates 3D skeletal muscle and renal proximal tubule tissues to model drug‐induced rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney injury. The coculture system enables dynamic tissue interaction, functional contraction monitoring, and quantification of nephrotoxicity, revealing drug side effect‐induced metabolic ...

Individualized rotation of left double lumen endobronchial tube to improve placement success rate: a randomized controlled trial

Respiratory Research
Background In conventional practice, the left double lumen tube (DLT) is rotated 90° counterclockwise when the endobronchial cuff passes glottis. Success rate upon the first attempt is

Treatment of Gastrointestinal Bleeding in the Biliopancreatic Limb with Embolization in a Patient with Duodenal Switch Anatomy

Case Reports in Gastroenterology
Introduction: Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS) is an uncommon type of bariatric surgery that can rarely lead to bleeding in the biliopancreatic limb. The altered anatomy poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Case

Unleashing the Power of Machine Learning in Nanomedicine Formulation Development

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A random forest machine learning model is able to make predictions on nanoparticle attributes of different nanomedicines (i.e. lipid nanoparticles, liposomes, or PLGA nanoparticles) based on microfluidic formulation parameters. Machine learning models are based on a database of nanoparticle formulations, and models are able to generate unique solutions
