Viscoelasticity, Lubricity, and Wear Prevention of Cross‐Linked Mucin Gels

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Physiologically, biolubrication by mucus reduces friction and protects tissues from tribological stress, with mucins playing a key role. This study compares mucin‐based gels with distinct crosslinking architectures to explore their effect on the lubrication and wear prevention abilities of reconstituted mucin gels.

Mode of delivery and outcomes among inborn extremely preterm singletons: A cohort study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica
Introduction Cesarean delivery is the most common mode of delivery among extremely preterm infants but there are insufficient data regarding the best mode of delivery among extremely preterm singletons. The objective of this study was to compare the rate

The Nuclear Localization of ACLY Guards Early Embryo Development Through Recruiting P300 and HAT1 to Promote Histone Acetylation and Transcription

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ACLY is vital for early embryo development. IGF‐1 activates AKT to phosphorylate ACLY, driving its nuclear localization and recruitment of HATs (P300/HAT1), boosting acetyl‐CoA production and histone acetylation for transcriptional activation. Conversely, ACLY deficiency (via knockdown, knockout, or AKT inhibition) reduces nuclear acetyl‐CoA, disrupts ...

New MRI Criteria for Successful Vaginal Breech Delivery in Primiparae. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Even if lower vaginal delivery success rates and impaired neonatal short-term outcomes have been reported for primiparous women with breech presentation, vaginal breech delivery remains an option for carefully selected patients.

Targeted Intervention Strategies for Maternal–Offspring Transmission of Christensenellaceae in Pigs via a Deep Learning Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study deciphers maternal‐driven microbial transmission in pigs using a deep learning model (maternal–offspring microbial transmission model), identifying Christensenellaceae R‐7 group as a key transmitted taxon. Filtered galacto‐oligosaccharides‐targeted Christensenellaceae R‐7 group alters offspring microbial functions via maternal ...

Optimized Chitosan/Anion Polyelectrolyte Complex Based Inserts for Vaginal Delivery of Fluconazole: In Vitro/In Vivo Evaluation

Pharmaceutics, 2018
(1) Background: Fluconazole, used orally for vaginal candidiasis, has reported gastrointestinal side effects. Therefore, researchers directed towards the drug vaginal delivery. However, vaginal delivery is limited by poor retention and leakage.
