Irreversible Electroporation for Inferior Turbinate Reduction Ablation in Adults

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Inferior turbinate hypertrophy is a common cause of nasal airway obstruction. An optimal surgical approach should provide effective volume reduction while preserving mucosal integrity and minimizing postoperative morbidity. Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of irreversible electroporation (IRE) for non‐thermal ablation ...

Impact of Septal Reduction on Left Atrial Size and Diastole in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Both myectomy and alcohol septal ablation (ASA) can substantially reduce left ventricular (LV) outflow obstruction, relieve symptoms, and improve outcomes in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

Rapid reduction versus abrupt quitting for smokers who want to stop soon: a randomised controlled non-inferiority trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: The standard way to stop smoking is to stop abruptly on a quit day with no prior reduction in consumption of cigarettes. Many smokers feel that reduction is natural and if reduction programmes were offered, many more might take up treatment ...

Functional Polymer‐Engineered Magnetic Nanoparticles as Dual‐Modal Theragnostic Probes for Early Alzheimer's Disease Detection and Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
The nanoparticle consists of a 3 nm iron oxide core functionalized with an amphiphilic polymer coating containing Aβ‐targeting DSA moieties and biocompatible PEG chains. This design supports measurable transport in a BBB‐related model and specific interaction with Aβ species, while providing MRI contrast enhancement for diagnosis and therapeutic ...

pH‐Responsive Ultrasmall Iron Oxide Nanoassemblies for Activatable T2/T1 Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This research reports a pH‐responsive ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticle (USIONs)/polymer nanoassemblies for activatable magnetic resonance imaging. Amphiphilic diphosphonic acid block copolymers compactly encapsulate USIONs to generate T2‐weighted contrast at physiological pH, while acidic conditions trigger disassembly, activating T1‐weighted ...

Morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve: New insights for comparative studies in mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.

Complexities of treating co‐morbidities in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure
Atrial fibrillation and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are frequent concomitant diseases sharing several pathophysiological mechanisms leading to structural remodelling of both atria and ventricles.
