Controlled Nitric Oxide-Releasing Nanovehicles for Enhanced Infected Wound Healing: A Study on PDA@BNN6 Encapsulated in GelMA Hydrogel.

Introduction: The photo-activated thermo/gas antimicrobial nanocomposite hydrogel, Gel/PDA@BNN6, is composed of the nitric oxide (NO) carrier N, N'-di-sec-butyl-N, N'-dinitroso-p-phenylenediamine (BNN6), photothermal (PTT) material polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs), and methacrylate gelatin (GelMA). This hydrogel can release NO gas in a stable and controlled manner, generating a localized photothermal effect when exposed to near-infrared laser light. This dual action promotes the healing of full-thickness skin wounds that are infected.

Sandwich assay for β-lactoglobulin in infant food formula based on a hierarchically architectured antifouling capture probe and fluorescent recognition probe.

Tracing the presence of allergenic β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) in infant foods is an urgent need, but the interference from the protein-rich matrix often hampered the detection accuracy. Here, we developed a sandwich assay for β-Lg in infant food formula based on a hierarchically architectured antifouling capture probe and fluorescent recognition probe. The antifouling capture probe was constructed from the polydopamine-coated magnetic particles (FeO@PDA), which was modified with repeated glutamic acid-lysine (EK) antifouling peptide and aptamer towards β-Lg.

Rapid shallow breathing index predicting extubation outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: This meta-analysis aimed to assess the predictive value of the rapid shallow breathing index for extubation outcomes.

Methodology: We conducted a systematic review of literature (inception to March 2023) and a meta-analysis. Statistical analysis was performed using Meta-Disc 1.

The risk factors of reintubation in intensive care unit patients on mechanical ventilation: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: To assess risk factors of reintubation in intensive care unit patients on mechanical ventilation.

Methodology: We conducted a systematic review of literature (inception to May 2022) and a meta-analysis. Data are reported as pooled odds ratios for categorical variables and mean differences for continuous variables.

A Metabolism-Related Gene Landscape Predicts Prostate Cancer Recurrence and Treatment Response.

Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignant tumor in men. Although clinical treatments of PCa have made great progress in recent decades, once tolerance to treatments occurs, the disease progresses rapidly after recurrence. PCa exhibits a unique metabolic rewriting that changes from initial neoplasia to advanced neoplasia.

[Efficacy and safety of regular use of sildenafil in the treatment of penile erectile dysfunction].

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of regular oral use of sildenafil in the treatment of ED.

Methods: We randomly divided 334 ED patients into three groups to be treated orally with sildenafil tablets at 50 mg qd (sildenafil regular), sildenafil tablets at 100 mg 30 minutes before intercourse (sildenafil on-demand), and tadalafil tablets at 10 mg qd (tadalafil regular), all for 3 months. Then we recorded the IIEF-5 score and penile erection hardness score (EHS) and adverse reactions and compared them among the three groups of patients.

MLPH Accelerates the Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Prostate Cancer.

Introduction: Prostate cancer (PC) is the second greatest cause of cancer deaths globally. PC presents a poor prognosis once it metastasizes. There is considerable proof of vital epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) functionality in PC metastasis.

Icariside II facilitates the differentiation of ADSCs to schwann cells and restores erectile dysfunction through regulation of miR-33/GDNF axis.

Background: Adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) have the property to differentiate into neuron-like cells, which may provide a novel insight for the restoration of erectile dysfunction (ED) mainly induced by cavernous nerve injury. Icariside II (ICA II) has been reported to play a key role in the regulation of erectile function via stimulating the differentiation of ADSCs to Schwann Cells (SCs). However, the function and molecular mechanisms of ICA II in ED remains to be further clarified.

A Diaphragmatic Hernia and Pericardial Rupture Caused by Blunt Injury of the Chest: A Case Review.

Blunt traumatic diaphragmatic hernias are most commonly seen in combination with other injuries. Right diaphragmatic ruptures with serious pericardium ruptures are relatively rare. The diagnosis of diaphragmatic hernias is not difficult; however, prior to surgery, it is difficult to judge whether pericardium damage has occurred, particularly on the right side.

Icariside II Promotes the Differentiation of Adipose Tissue-Derived Stem Cells to Schwann Cells to Preserve Erectile Function after Cavernous Nerve Injury.

Icariside II (ICA II) is used in erectile dysfunction treatment. Adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are efficient at improving erectile function. This study aimed to explore the action mechanism of ADSCs in improving erectile function.

Delayed traumatic parasternal hernia causes jejunal necrosis: A case report.

Diaphragmatic injury is a common clinical condition, and it may be difficult to avoid diaphragmatic hernia if detection and treatment is not timely. Parasternal hernia is mostly congenital. It is relatively rare in adults, and intestinal obstruction as a complication of intrathoracic intestinal herniation occurs only rarely.

Genipin inhibits the growth of human bladder cancer cells via inactivation of PI3K/Akt signaling.

Genipin, a natural compound derived from the fruit of , possesses numerous biological properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate the anticancer effects of genipin in human bladder cancer. T24 and 5637 bladder cancer cells were treated with different concentrations of genipin (0-200 µM) and tested for cell viability, colony formation, cell cycle progression and apoptosis.

Low concentration of BPA induces mice spermatocytes apoptosis via GPR30.

Bisphenol A (BPA) acts as xenoestrogen and has a great impact on disorders of human reproductive system. However, the mechanism through which BPA can affect human testicular function remains to be identified. GPR30 is a novel membrane estrogen receptor with high-affinity and low-capacity binding to estrogens.

Interfacial assembly of lipopeptide surfactants on octyltrimethoxysilane-modified silica surface.

The adsorption of a series of cationic lipopeptide surfactants, C14Kn (where C14 denotes the myristic acyl chain and Kn represents n number of lysine residues) at the hydrophobic solid/water interface has been studied using spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) and neutron reflection (NR). The hydrophobic C8 surface was prepared by grafting a monolayer of octyltrimethoxysilane on the silicon surface. SE was used to follow the dynamic adsorption from these lipopeptide surfactants and the amount was found to undergo a fast increase within the first 2-3 min, followed by a much slower process tending to equilibration in the subsequent 15-20 min.

Dynamic adsorption and structure of interfacial bilayers adsorbed from lipopeptide surfactants at the hydrophilic silicon/water interface: effect of the headgroup length.

Lipopeptides are an important group of biosurfactants expressed by microorganisms. Because they are well-known for being biocompatible, biodegradable, and highly surface active, they are attractive for a wide range of applications. Natural lipopeptide surfactants are however impure; it is hence difficult to use them for exploring the structure-function relation.
