Impact of goal-directed fluid therapy on serum cytokines (IL-2, IFN-g, TNF-a, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10) in elderly patients undergoing thoracotomy [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry
Background: This research aimed to investigate the effect of different fluid therapy approaches (conventional and goal-directed fluid management) on TH1 and TH 2 cytokines (IL-2, IFN-g, TN F-a, IL-6, and IL-8, IL-10) during the perioperative period of ...

Extracellular Vesicles Modulation by an Adiponectin Receptor Agonist Provides Cardioprotection for Myocardial Ischemic Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ALY688, a drug mimicking the heart‐protective hormone adiponectin, reduces myocardial ischemia injury. ALY688 increases the production of extracellular vesicles, which carry protective cargo including adiponectin itself.

Retropleural thoracotomy [PDF]

Neurosurgical Focus, 2001
Herniated thoracic discs, unlike their lumbar counterparts, are difficult to read and safely resect using traditional posterior approaches. Historically, the use of a laminectomy for thoracic disc resection has yielded poor clinical outcomes. Posterolateral and anterolateral approaches have become the standard surgical means of treating these lesions ...

A Nano‐Interception Strategy for Chronic Heart Failure: Prussian Blue Nanoparticles Disrupt Fibroblast‐Immune Communication via CCL2 Sequestration

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A nano‐interception strategy disrupts pathogenic fibroblast–macrophage crosstalk in chronic heart failure. Scalable Prussian blue nanoparticles selectively sequester CCL2 via ultrahigh‐affinity binding, preventing CCR2+ macrophage recruitment and breaking a key fibro‐inflammatory circuit. This approach demonstrates robust efficacy in murine and porcine

Methylglyoxal Accumulation is Associated with Brain Inflammation after Myocardial Infarction with Sex and Regional Differences

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies that methylglyoxal may play an important role in heart‐brain interactions after myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction leads to increased levels of methylglyoxal‐derived advanced glycation end‐products (MG‐H1) in the brain of mice, which is associated with loss of blood‐brain barrier integrity and neuroinflammation ...

Soft and Adhesive Cardiac Patch for Electrophysiological and Contraction Measurement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed an epicardial electronic patch with a modulus similar to that of the heart (approximately 65kPa), which can collect stable electrocardiogram signals and myocardial contractility on the surface of a dynamically beating heart. This is attributed to the hydrogen bond interaction formed between the amino and catechol groups in the ...
