The Role of Alaska's Nurse Practitioners in Preventing Early Childhood Caries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Early Childhood Caries (ECC) is the most common chronic disease of childhood despite being preventable. Because of its high prevalence, its impact on the quality of life of young children, and its potential for increasing their risk of caries in the ...

De Novo Design of Integrin α5β1 Modulating Proteins to Enhance Biomaterial Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
NeoNectins are de novo‐designed miniproteins that selectively bind and stabilize the extended open form of integrin α5β1. When grafted onto biomaterials including hydrogel and titanium, they promote cell attachment and spreading in vitro and promoting tissue integration and bone growth in animal models, demonstrating broad potential for regenerative ...

Versatile Silicon‐Based Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy Chip for Quantitative Sensing and Point‐of‐Care Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study fabricates highly sensitive, uniform SERS substrates scalable to wafer level. The dual‐function substrates integrate high‐density hot spots and spectral references for accurate quantitative detection, achieving 10⁻¹2 M BPE sensitivity (<5% deviation). Their application in monitoring urinary caffeine citrate for preterm infant apnea treatment

Pediatric liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Liver transplantation, which once was an experimental procedure of no practical interest, has become the preferred treatment for infants and children dying of almost all non-neoplastic end-stage liver diseases. Liver replacement is being provided by many

Implantable Microarray Patch: Engineering at the Nano and Macro Scale for Sustained Therapeutic Release via Synthetic Biodegradable Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This review focuses on the application of synthetic biodegradable microarray patches (MAPs) in sustained drug delivery. Compared to conventional MAPs which release drugs into the skin in an immediate manner, these implantable MAPs release drugs into skin microcirculation gradually as the biodegradable polymers degrade, thus offering sustained release ...

Evidence-Based Skin Champion Program Reduces Pressure Injuries in a Pediatric Hospital [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Prevention of pressure injuries (PIs) in pediatric patients is an important nurse-sensitive quality goal. The PI rate at a large urban pediatric hospital triggered a call to action by the Chief Nursing Officer to establish a Hospital Acquired PI (HAPI ...

4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...
