Short‐Term Response to Biologic Therapy in Psoriatic Arthritis Is Not Influenced by Disease Duration at Initiation of Therapy

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to determine whether the short‐term response to biologics in biologic‐naive psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is better in patients initiating biologic treatment early in the disease course. Methods Patients with PsA who started on biologic therapy from the year 2000 to 2025 were included for analysis.

Dry eye and ocular surface disease

Saudi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2014
Sight, surgical outcomes and, ultimately, patient satisfaction critically depend on the health of the ocular surface. The extraordinary complexity of the ocular surface is maintained by intricate homeostasis; destabilization of this equilibrium may result in devastating consequences.

Automated Hand Flexor Tendon–Thickness Measurement in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) can affect flexor tendons, contributing to hand function problems and reduced quality of life. Tendon changes are currently assessed with ultrasonography and measured manually, a time‐consuming process prone to interobserver variability.

Bio‐Inspired Biopolymeric Implantable Platform for Localized and Sustained Drug Delivery in Solid Tumor Treatment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A bio‐inspired biopolymeric implantable drug delivery platform enables localized and sustained release of 7‐ethyl‐10‐hydroxycamptothecin (SN‐38) in solid tumor treatment. The three‐dimensional (3D) structured crosslinked‐chitosan implants are fabricated via 3D‐printed molds and provide drug release over 3 months, significantly inhibiting tumor growth ...

Sulfation‐Tunable Peptide‐Glycosaminoglycan Hydrogels for Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cell Expansion

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Co‐assembly of rationally designed glycosaminoglycan‐binding peptides with sulfated glycosaminoglycans yields supramolecular hydrogels with tunable mechanics and matrix‐mediated cytokine retention. The glycosaminoglycans thereby act as cofactors, driving a coil‐to‐β‐sheet transition that triggers gelation.
