Neglecting the neglected: the objective evidence of underfunding in rheumatic heart disease
Background Despite the substantial global burden of disease, rheumatic heart disease research receives little funding globally. Methods Using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study and funding from the G-FINDER database, we propose a novel ...

This work has developed a dual enzyme‐mimicking and ultrasound‐responsive Nb2C‐Pt@HA‐PEG nanozyme. ROS‐eliminating and antiinflammatory capability of Nb2C‐Pt@HA‐PEG under US irradiation are demonstrated on macrophages and endothelial cells in vitro. Nb2C‐Pt@HA‐PEG‐mediated sonocatalytic therapy exerts an outstanding anti‐atherosclerosis efficacy by ...
