Functional Hydrogel for Modulating Lipid Droplets and Neuroinflammation in Head Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
After TBI, elevated cholesterol levels in activated microglia lead to the accumulation of cholesterol esters in lipid droplets, exacerbating neuroinflammation. A β‐cyclodextrin‐conjugated GelMA (βCD‐GelMA) hydrogel is developed to promotes cholesterol efflux and reduces LDL influx, thereby alleviating intracellular cholesterol and lipid droplet buildup.

Different Time-Frequency Distribution Patterns of Somatosensory Evoked Potentials in Dual- and Single-Level Spinal Cord Compression

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
Among patients with cervical myelopathy, the most common level of stenosis at spinal cord of all ages was reported to be between cervical levels C5-6. Previous studies found that time-frequency components (TFCs) of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs ...
