Quantification of Lymphangiogenesis in the Murine Lymphedema Tail Model Using Intravital Microscopy.

Lymphedema is chronic limb swelling resulting from lymphatic dysfunction. It affects an estimated five million Americans. There is no cure for this disease.

Topical tissue nanotransfection of is effective in the prophylactic management of lymphedema.

Lymphedema is chronic limb swelling resulting from lymphatic dysfunction. There is no cure for the disease. Clinically, a preventive surgical approach called immediate lymphatic reconstruction (ILR) has gained traction.

Biofilm-derived oxylipin 10-HOME-mediated immune response in women with breast implants.

This study investigates a mechanistic link of bacterial biofilm-mediated host-pathogen interaction leading to immunological complications associated with breast implant illness (BII). Over 10 million women worldwide have breast implants. In recent years, women have described a constellation of immunological symptoms believed to be related to their breast implants.

Autonomous Multi-modality Burn Wound Characterization using Artificial Intelligence.

Introduction: Between 5% and 20% of all combat-related casualties are attributed to burn wounds. A decrease in the mortality rate of burns by about 36% can be achieved with early treatment, but this is contingent upon accurate characterization of the burn. Precise burn injury classification is recognized as a crucial aspect of the medical artificial intelligence (AI) field.

Masks thermal degradation as an alternative of waste valorization on the COVID-19 pandemic: A kinetic study.

The COVID-19 pandemic generated a new dynamic around waste management. Personal protective equipment such as masks, gloves, and face shields were essential to prevent the spread of the disease. However, despite the increase in waste, no technical alternatives were foreseen for the recovery of these wastes, which are made up of materials that can be valued for energy recovery.
