Venous velocity of the right femoral vein decreases in the right lateral decubitus position compared to the supine position: a cause of postoperative pulmonary embolism? [PDF]

, 2007
The right lateral decubitus position is a risk factor for postoperative pulmonary embolism. We examined postural changes of femoral vein velocity in order to elucidate the mechanism. Thirty patients scheduled for general thoracic surgery were enrolled in

Emodin Alleviates Sepsis‐Induced Multiorgan Damage by Inhibiting NETosis through Targeting Neutrophils BCL‐10

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Emodin targets BCL‐10 to modulate the BCL‐10/MALT1 complex, thereby suppressing NF‐κB activation and significantly exerting multiorgan protective effects in sepsis. Abstract Sepsis is a life‐threatening condition caused by dysregulated host responses to infection, characterized by excessive inflammation and abnormal coagulation.

Potentiating Cerebral Perfusion Normalizes Glymphatic Dynamics in Systemic Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LPS‐induced systemic inflammation increases glymphatic influx but delays cervical lymphatic drainage, accompanied by AQP4 depolarization and impaired glymphatic clearance. Enhancing cerebral blood flow via the inotropic agent levosimendan effectively restored AQP4 polarization, improving glymphatic flux and amyloid‐β clearance.

A Hypoxia‐Responsive Single‐Atom Sonozyme for Targeted Sonocatalytic Therapy in Alleviating Atherosclerotic Plaque

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A tetranitrogen‐coordinated single‐atom manganese catalyst (SMC) is fabricated with outstanding sonosensitization efficiency and multi‐enzyme‐like catalytic properties. To enable better targeting of M1 macrophages, hyaluronic acid (HA) is applied to modify the surface of SMC, yielding SMC‐HA nanozymes.

Ankle dexterity is less impaired than muscle strength in incomplete spinal cord lesion [PDF]

, 2018
Background : Motor assessment after incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) currently consists of tests for muscle strength (manual muscle testing) and gait. The ability to adequately time a movement, an aspect of dexterity, is not tested.

Factors modifying the risk for developing acute skin toxicity after whole-breast intensity modulated radiotherapy [PDF]

, 2014
Background: After breast-conserving radiation therapy most patients experience acute skin toxicity to some degree. This may impair patients' quality of life, cause pain and discomfort. In this study, we investigated treatment and patient-related factors,
