The scale matters: A review on stimuli‐responsive microrobots categorized by scale for biomedical applications

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

Association of higher triglyceride–glucose index and triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio with early neurological deterioration after thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke patients

Frontiers in Neurology
BackgroundInsulin resistance (IR) can predict the prognosis of patients suffering from cerebrovascular disorders. The triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index and triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio have been confirmed to be ...

Potentiation of thrombus instability: a contributory mechanism to the effectiveness of antithrombotic medications [PDF]

, 2018
© The Author(s) 2018The stability of an arterial thrombus, determined by its structure and ability to resist endogenous fibrinolysis, is a major determinant of the extent of infarction that results from coronary or cerebrovascular thrombosis.

Activatable smart contrast agents for photoacoustic imaging

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in smart activatable photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contrast agents, which dynamically modulate their optical properties in response to external stimuli or microenvironmental cues. It discusses their molecular design, activation mechanisms, biomedical applications, and future prospects for clinically tailored use ...

Is thrombolysis beneficial in elderly patients with minor ischemic stroke?

Frontiers in Stroke
IntroductionA pooled analysis of data from randomized controlled trials showed that thrombolysis is an effective treatment in patients older than 80 years of age with acute ischemic stroke. However, the outcomes in daily clinical practice may differ from

A catastrophic confluence: Concurrent subarachnoid haemorrhage and acute mesenteric ischaemia

Surgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) and subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) are life‐threatening emergencies with diametrically opposed treatment requirements regarding anticoagulation. This report describes a rare, complex case where both conditions occurred simultaneously, creating a significant therapeutic dilemma. Case presentation A 64‐

Dutch randomized trial comparing standard catheter-directed thrombolysis versus Ultrasound-accElerated Thrombolysis for thromboembolic infrainguinal disease (DUET): design and rationale

Trials, 2011
Background The use of thrombolytic therapy in the treatment of thrombosed infrainguinal native arteries and bypass grafts has increased over the years. Main limitation of this treatment modality, however, is the occurrence of bleeding complications.

Using Tenecteplase for Acute Ischemic Stroke: What Is the Hold Up? [PDF]

, 2020
Alteplase is the only Food and Drug Administration-approved intravenous (IV) thrombolytic medication for acute ischemic stroke. However, multiple recent studies comparing tenecteplase and alteplase suggest that tenecteplase is at least as efficacious as ...

Interventional oncology in children: Where are we now?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Abstract Paediatric Interventional Oncology (IO) lags behind adult IO due to a scarcity of specific outcome data. The suboptimal way to evolve this field is relying heavily on adult experiences. The distinct tumour types prevalent in children, such as extracranial germ cell tumours, sarcomas, and neuroblastoma, differ strongly from those found in ...

Treatment Difficulties in High Risk Pulmonary Embolism. A Case Report

Journal of Cardiovascular Emergencies, 2016
Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a common and potentially life-threatening cardiovascular emergency. Systemic thrombolysis with intravenous infusion of a thrombolytic agent is generally recommended for treatment of high risk PE.
