Reconfigurable Magnetic Soft Microrobot for Acoustically Triggered Targeted Bacterial Sterilization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Reconfigurable magnetic soft microrobots integrate in situ‐grown piezoelectric zinc oxide nanorods that produce reactive oxygen species upon acoustic excitation. Combining magnetically guided transport with thermally induced planar reconfiguration, the microrobots achieve targeted delivery and enhanced bacterial sterilization through efficient on ...

Taming systems to create enabling environments for HCV treatment: negotiating trust in the drug and alcohol setting.

, 2013
HCV (hepatitis C) treatment uptake among the population most affected - people who inject drugs - is suboptimal. Hospital based treatment provision is one evidenced barrier to HCV treatment uptake.

Spectrally Tunable 2D Material‐Based Infrared Photodetectors for Intelligent Optoelectronics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Intelligent optoelectronics through spectral engineering of 2D material‐based infrared photodetectors. Abstract The evolution of intelligent optoelectronic systems is driven by artificial intelligence (AI). However, their practical realization hinges on the ability to dynamically capture and process optical signals across a broad infrared (IR) spectrum.

Oral Dosed Organo‐Silica Nanoparticles Restore Glucose Homeostasis and β‐Cell Function in Diabetes Rats

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An oral nanoplatform, MOP@T@D, which can maintain glucose homeostasis and restore islet β cells in diabetic rats is developed. It achieves efficient intestinal absorption and liver‐targeted delivery. The nanoparticle disintegrates only in response to hyperglycemia to release insulin on demand and provides antioxidant protection through selenoprotein ...

Impact of a treatment as prevention strategy on hepatitis C virus transmission and on morbidity in people who inject drugs [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Highly effective direct-acting antiviral (DAA) regimens (90% efficacy) are becoming available for hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment. This therapeutic revolution leads us to consider possibility of eradicating the virus.

Long-term Outcomes of Injection Drug-related Infective Endocarditis Among People Who Inject Drugs

Journal of Addiction Medicine, 2019
Objectives: Infective endocarditis (IE) among people who inject drugs is associated with high rates of mortality and repeat episodes of endocarditis. We sought to report on longer-term clinical outcomes of patients with IE who were offered buprenorphine or methadone treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) at their initial ...
