Targeted 2‐Deoxy‐D‐Ribose Delivery by Biomimetic Nanoplatform Activates EGFR for Accelerated Heart Valve Endothelialization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a biomimetic nanoplatform using erythrocyte membrane‐camouflaged, CD144 antibody‐functionalized nanoparticles to deliver 2‐deoxy‐D‐ribose (2dDR). This system promotes heart valve endothelialization by enhancing endothelial cell migration and proliferation via EGFR activation, while improving hemocompatibility.

Effectiveness of antimicrobial-coated sutures for the prevention of surgical site infection: a review of the literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
OBJECTIVE:Surgical site infections (SSIs) are the third most common hospital-acquired infections and account for 14% to 16% of all such infections, and suture material may play a role in SSI rate.

Dual‐Pedicle Tissue‐Engineered Trachea Promotes Biomimetic Cartilaginous Framework, Vascularization, and Epithelial Lining for Long‐Segment Tracheal Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Overcoming the limitations of conventional grafts, a biomimetic trachea with two independent vascular pedicles enables rapid integration and sustained patency. This approach markedly improves survival rates, restores the epithelial barrier, and promotes regenerative pathways, presenting a transformative paradigm for clinical application.

Periprosthetic Knee Infection: Ten Strategies That Work. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most serious complications following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The demand for TKA is rapidly increasing, resulting in a subsequent increase in infections involving knee prosthesis.

Repurposing of Chemokine Antagonists for Combined Phase‐Resolved Spinal Cord Injury Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) in mammals is accompanied by a massive cytokine storm in cerebrospinal fluid, mainly driven by CXCL1, IL‐6, and CCL2‐5. Sub‐acute phase is mostly associated with IL‐2, IL‐7, CCL22, and CX3CL1, whereas TNFα and IL17α permanently persists in CNS even weeks following SCI.

Rethinking Power Solutions for Healthcare Wearables: From Point‐of‐Care and Episodic use to Continuous Monitoring and Therapeutic Platforms

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective examines practical power solutions for wearable healthcare systems, highlighting the limits of standard batteries. It categorizes wearables into four domains—point‐of‐care diagnostics, episodic monitoring, continuous long‐term monitoring, and therapeutic platforms—and analyzes their power needs.
