Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Due to the high corrosion rate and limited biocompatibility of commonly used magnesium (Mg) and its alloys, current studies have focused on surface modification techniques. In this study, which is aimed at overcoming these obstacles in biomedical applications, hybrid coatings of PLA‐HA‐Walnut shell (Wshell) were successfully applied to Mg ...

Nonocclusive coronary dissections: to stent or not to stent?
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2000 Cappelletti et al. [(1)][1] reviewed the outcome of 129 consecutive patients treated with conventional angioplasty (PTCA) at a time when coronary stents were not available. Patients (45; 35%) presenting nonocclusive dissections post-PTCA had a significantly lower restenosis rate than ...

Laser augmented by brachytherapy versus laser alone in the palliation of adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus and cardia: a randomised study [PDF]
, 2002 Background: Many patients with advanced malignant dysphagia are not suitable for definitive treatment. The best option for palliation of dysphagia varies between patients. This paper looks at a simple technique for enhancing laser recanalisation.

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Lightweight prosthetic sockets constructed using auxetic meta‐structures can help reduce physical discomfort when compared to a similar lightweight socket featuring a nonauxetic meta‐structure. The chiral auxetic meta‐structured sockets demonstrated better contact pressure profiles at the interface between the socket and the residual limb.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Targeted decrease of portal hepatic pressure gradient improves ascites control after TIPS
Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 The river diagram demonstrates that after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt insertion (TIPS) the majority of patients without ascites and 50% of the patients with ascites detectable at ultrasound, show the best response in the long term follow‐up.
