To evaluate the comparative efficacy of Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel in treating patients with coronary heart disease and unstable angina, as well as their effects on serum inflammatory factors, thereby providing a solid foundation for future clinical diagnosis and treatment. The frequency of angina attacks in the Ticagrelor group was lower than in the Clopidogrel group (P<0.05).

Inspired by the natural phenomenon of microbe-induced mineralization, a way is developed to induce the spontaneous formation of mineralized membrane on the surface of coacervate droplets utilizing Fe ions. In particular, the effect of Fe ions on the microstructure of droplets at the molecular level is dissected by combining theoretical and experimental approaches.

In this study, monodisperse SiO particles (2-4 µm in diameter) were utilized to fabricate core-shell spheres through a combined approach involving a modified sol-gel process and a biphasic system. The synthesis employed 1,6-bis(triethoxysilyl) hexane (BTMSH), 1,2-bis(triethoxysilyl) ethane (BTEE) as a bridging agent with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) acting as a co-template.

In this study, we aim to analyze whether miR-124a regulates autophagy and apoptosis in hepatic cells, particularly in acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF).
Materials And Methods: The plasma and liver tissues from the healthy control (HC) and ACLF patients were included.
