The effect of sodium nitroprusside in scaffolds for synergetic gas‐photothermal therapy of osteosarcoma

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The PCLA‐SNP scaffolds can produce photothermal agents in situ under ultraviolet radiation. Then, the scaffold can release nitric oxide gas spontaneously and generate hyperthermia under near‐infrared laser to enhance ablation of bone tumors. Furthermore, the calcium and iron ions released from PCLA‐SNP scaffolds can accelerate bone regeneration ...

Effect of a Home‐Based Exercise Program on Muscle Mass, Fatigue, and Health‐Related Quality of Life Among Patients with Oral Cancer: A Randomized Trial

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) often experience deteriorated health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) and loss of body weight and muscle mass. The primary aim was to determine if a home‐based exercise program, aiming to increase physical activity (PA), could reduce muscle mass loss and fatigue.
