PECSS: Pulmonary Embolism Comprehensive Screening Score to safely rule out pulmonary embolism among suspected patients presenting to emergency department

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2023
Background Pulmonary embolism is a severe cardiovascular disease and can be life-threatening if left untreated. However, the detection rate of pulmonary embolism using existing pretest probability scores remained relatively low and clinical rule out ...

Pregnancy‐Adapted YEARS Algorithm for Diagnosis of Suspected Pulmonary Embolism

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND Pulmonary embolism is one of the leading causes of maternal death in the Western world. Because of the low specificity and sensitivity of the D‐dimer test, all pregnant women with suspected pulmonary embolism undergo computed tomographic (CT ...

Molecular Simulations of Polymer‐based Drug Nanocarriers: From Physical and Structural Properties to Controlled Release

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based drug delivery systems can effectively overcome the limitations of free drugs in terms of solubility, stability, and plasma half‐life, yet their development has traditionally relied on time‐consuming trial‐and‐error approaches. This review highlights recent advances in applying molecular simulation to the design of polymer‐based drug ...

Extensive Pulmonary Embolism in late pregnancy associated with Anticardiolipin Antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The leading cause of morbidity and mortality during pregnancy and the puerperium is venous thromboembolism. Though uncommon, the risk is five times higher in a pregnant woman than in a non-pregnant woman of similar age.1,2 In pregnancy, all three ...

Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...
