Pressure‐Assisted Drug Delivery Using High‐Pressure Balloon Platform Improves Vascular Drug Penetration and Anti‐Restenotic Effects

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A dual‐layer high‐pressure drug‐coated balloon (HP@DCB) increased balloon‐wall contact and promoted deeper paclitaxel (PTX) penetration than a conventional noncompliant DCB. In in vivo study, HP@DCB treatment improved luminal patency and reduced neointimal hyperplasia, supporting pressure‐assisted drug delivery as a promising strategy for enhancing the

"A pain that ruins mountains" : a case study of factors influencing postoperative pain management in two Jordanian hospitals [PDF]

open access: yes
Postoperative pain is still poorly managed among surgical patients despite evidence-based approaches to its treatment being well established. Prompted by the persistence of this problem, many researchers have studied factors influencing postoperative ...

Scalable Fabrication of Chemically Stabilized Gelatin Hydrogel Fibers by Thermal Drawing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Scalable processing of hydrogel fibers remains a major challenge. By coupling thermal drawing with Maillard chemistry, a transient viscous‐flow window is created that enables continuous fabrication of microstructured gelatin fibers tens of meters long, while continued in situ crosslinking during drawing stabilizes the fibers for physiological ...

3D Printed Photon Shield Assembly for Low‐Noise Visual Stimulation During Two‐Photon Imaging in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We present the Photon Shield, an open‐hardware system for low‐noise two‐photon calcium imaging during visual stimulation in mice. Combining a 3D‐printed headplate and rail‐mounted shield substantially reduces stray‐light contamination, as quantitatively verified. Functional validation confirms reliable cortical responses. Open design files enable broad

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Postoperative care in trichiasis surgery

open access: yes, 2016
Postoperative care is an important aspect of trachomatous trichiasis (TT) surgical services. Follow-up visits should ideally take place on the first postoperative day (to remove the eye patch), after 8–14 days (to remove sutures; optional if absorbable ...

Free serum cortisol during the postoperative acute phase response determined by equilibrium dialysis liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In severely ill patients low concentrations of the corticosteroid binding globulin are typically found; the aim of this study was to quantify directly free bioactive cortisol concentrations in the sera of postoperative cardiosurgical patients.
