Antibacterial Hydrogel Dressing With Ca2+‐Dependent Hyaluronidase Responsiveness for Accelerating Wound Healing via On‐Demand Release of AIE Photosensitizers

Exploration, EarlyView.
This study innovates a Ca2+‐responsive hydrogel dressing that releases AIE photosensitizers on‐demand. Low Ca2+ enhances bacterial hyaluronidase (HAase) activity, degrading hyaluronic acid dressing to trigger antibacterial ROS release, while high Ca2+ inhibits HAase, preventing overdosing.

Engineered Nature‐Based Sonosensitizer for Broad‐Spectrum Infectious Tissue Repair via Sono‐Ionic Therapy

Exploration, EarlyView.
A schematic illustration of an engineered nature‐based sonosensitizer enables early‐stage high‐power ultrasound to generate substantial reactive oxygen species for antibacterial effects and late‐stage low‐power sono‐ionic therapy for infected bone repair, infected wound biofilm therapy, and wound regeneration.

Sonographic Diagnosis of an Intercostal Artery Pseudoaneurysm: A Case Report and Literature Review

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A 63‐year‐old male presented to the emergency department after being found unconscious during a welfare check. Following a prolonged three‐month hospital admission, the patient developed left flank pain. Spectral Doppler ultrasound revealed a large isoechoic lesion with layering echoes, and spectral Doppler demonstrated bidirectional flow.

The impact of a vancomycin intervention on vancomycin‐associated nephrotoxicity in children: a quality improvement initiative

Journal of Pharmacy Practice and Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vancomycin is first‐line treatment for methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections. However, despite guideline recommendations, there is no evidence that targeting vancomycin trough concentrations of ≥15 mg/L in children confers clinical benefit and is associated with vancomycin‐associated nephrotoxicity (VAN ...

Detecting Antibiotic Resistance in Strains of Selected Gram‐Negative Bacterial Species Using Raman Spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectroscopy successfully identified antibiotic‐resistant Gram‐negative strains. Resistant strains of four bacterial species were discriminated from sensitive ones with 99.1% accuracy using PLS regression. The method allows for rapid, label‐free detection of antibiotic resistance.
