What general practitioners need to know about patent foramen ovale [PDF]
A patent foramen ovale (PFO) consists of a hole between the right and left atriums of the heart that did not close the way it should after birth. Twenty five percent of the population have a PFO, but this usually does not cause problems, because the ...

A new class of biohybrid spheroids is engineered through the self‐assembly of adherent cells and extracellular matrix‐mimetic hydrogel microparticles (microgels). By mimicking a snowballing effect, this approach enables scalable formation of porous, millimeter‐scale spheroids with enhanced cell viability and molecular diffusion.

Octanol/water distribution coefficients of the C~1~ through C~7~ perfluoro-n-alkyl sulfonates: Comparison of the IEFPCM-UFF, CPCM, and SMD solvation models [PDF]
The octanol/water distribution coefficients (log D~ow~) of the C~1~ through C~7~ perfluoro-n-alkyl sulfonates (PFSAs) were calculated using the M062X/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/6-311++G(d,p)//M062X/6-311++G(d,p) levels of theory and the IEFPCM-UFF, CPCM, and ...

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer
As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.

Pooled Analysis of PFO Occluder Device Trials in Patients With PFO and Migraine
Although observational studies have shown percutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure to be a safe means of reducing the frequency and duration of migraine, randomized clinical trials have not met their primary efficacy endpoints.The authors report the results of a pooled analysis of individual participant data from the 2 randomized trials using ...

Enhancement of perfluorooctanoate and perfluorooctanesulfonate activity at acoustic cavitation bubble interfaces [PDF]
Acoustic cavitation driven by ultrasonic irradiation decomposes and mineralizes the recalcitrant perfluorinated surfactants perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA).

Exploring the fate, transport and risk of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) in a coastal region of China using a multimedia model [PDF]
Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and related substances have been widely applied in both industrial processes and domestic products in China. Exploring the environmental fate and transport of PFOS using modeling methods provides an important link between
