A Deployable 4D Printed, Mucoadhesive and Magnetically Guided Patch for Local Therapy of Gastric Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A new perspective for treatment of gastric cancer is proposed utilizing 4D printing to develop shape morphing, deployable, and magnetically guided local drug releasing patches. The deployed patches are envisioned to adhere at the tumor site to locally deliver high drug amounts.

Relation between preoperative benzodiazepines and opioids on outcomes after total joint arthroplasty

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
To examine the association of preoperative opioids and/or benzodiazepines on postoperative outcomes in total knee and hip arthroplasty, we retrospectively compared postoperative outcomes in those prescribed preoperative opioids and/or benzodiazepines ...

Perioperative care of phaeochromocytoma [PDF]

open access: yesBJA Education, 2016
### Key points Phaeochromocytomas are catecholamine-secreting tumours of the adrenal medulla, while paragangliomas are closely related neuroendocrine tumours arising from extra-adrenal paraganglia, some of which produce catecholamines. In this article, their perioperative management will be considered together.

Zinc‐Coordinated Trienzyme Nanogel Cascade Therapy for Accelerated Post‐Pancreatectomy Cutaneous Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A zinc‐coordinated nanogel assembly is reported that co‐delivers three enzymes to regulate glucose, oxidative stress, and oxygen levels. This system mimics natural enzyme cascades to reprogram the wound environment after pancreatectomy. In a post‐pancreatectomy mouse model, it accelerates healing by reducing infection, promoting blood vessel growth ...
