Study protocol: NITric oxide during cardiopulmonary bypass to improve Recovery in Infants with Congenital heart defects (NITRIC trial): a randomised controlled trial [PDF]

, 2019
Introduction Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a major cause of infant mortality. Many infants with CHD require corrective surgery with most operations requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

A Transparent Semicrystalline Polymer Used in Thermally Responsive Smart Window Application

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A thermally responsive smart window is fabricated based on a transparent semicrystalline polymer via copolymerizing stearyl acrylate and ethoxylated trimethylolpropane triacrylate. The high transparency is achieved by restricting the crystal domain to nanometer size via ultraviolet curing at a high temperature.

Ambient‐Dried MOF/Cellulose‐Based Aerogels for Atmospheric Water Harvesting and Sustainable Water Management in Agriculture

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ambient‐dried composite aerogels integrating MOF‐303, TEMPO‐oxidized cellulose nanofibers (TOCNF), and hygroscopic salts enable high‐performance atmospheric water harvesting (AWH), achieving competitive uptake at both low and high humidity. Enhanced with a solar‐evaporation layer, these scalable aerogels support self‐sustained plant growth in a ...

Microbubble‐Controlled Delivery of Biofilm‐Targeting Nanoparticles to Treat MRSA Infection

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, an effective strategy using microbubble (MB)‐controlled delivery of biofilm‐targeting nanoparticles (BTNs) for removal and therapy of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) biofilm infections is introduced. In vivo delivery of MB with BTN is demonstrated to silence key bacterial genes involved in biofilm formation (icaA), bacterial ...

Increasing compliance with low tidal volume ventilation in the ICU with two nudge-based interventions: evaluation through intervention time-series analyses [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives: Low tidal volume (TVe) ventilation improves outcomes for ventilated patients, and the majority of clinicians state they implement it. Unfortunately, most patients never receive low TVes.

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...
