Interfacial Bioengineering of Dynamic Networks Hybrid Hydrogel for Programmed Intervention in Oral Precancerous Epithelial States

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops a dual‐bioinspired hydrogel, MSA@PGel (macrophage membrane‐coated and salvianolic acid B/5‐aminolevulinic acid co‐loaded liposomes embedded in a polydopamine‐based gel), that integrates macrophage membrane‐mediated active targeting and mussel‐inspired wet adhesion for programmed intervention in oral precancerous lesions.

Atherosclerotic plaque features relevant to rupture-risk detected by clinical photon-counting CT ex vivo: a proof-of-concept study

European Radiology Experimental
Background To identify subjects with rupture-prone atherosclerotic plaques before thrombotic events occur is an unmet clinical need. Thus, this proof-of-concept study aims to determine which rupture-prone plaque features can be detected using clinically ...

Rupture du long fléchisseur du pouce : complication rare de l´ostéosynthèse par plaque anatomique palmaire du radius distal

PAMJ Clinical Medicine, 2020
La rupture du long fléchisseur du pouce secondaire à une ostéosynthèse par plaque palmaire est très rare. Elle est généralement due à la proéminence et/ou la position distale de la plaque. Son diagnostic est facile.

New insights into fibrous cap thickness of vulnerable plaques assessed by optical coherence tomography

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2022
Objective Vulnerable plaques with fibrous cap thickness (FCT) of ≤65 μm are prone to rupture and/or thrombosis. However, plaques with FCT > 65 μm cause acute myocardial infarction and even sudden death. We aimed to investigate the relationship between 65

New insights into atherosclerotic plaque rupture [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 2001
Coronary artery atherosclerosis is the major cause of mortality and morbidity in the industrialised world. Progressive narrowing of coronary arteries causes angina. However, it is rupture of the plaque that causes the catastrophic consequences of atherosclerosis, such as myocardial infarction. Recent work has identified that the stability of the plaque
