The objective of this work was to develop an implantable therapeutic hydrogel that will ensure continuity in treatment between surgery and radiochemotherapy for patients with glioblastoma (GBM). A hydrogel of self-associated gemcitabine-loaded lipid nanocapsules (LNC) has shown therapeutic efficacy in vivo in murine GBM resection models. To improve the targeting of GBM cells, the NFL-TBS.

Nano-objects buried under a metal surface up to several tens of nanometers can be visualized through the metal surface and characterized with STM without destroying the sample. This non-destructive method exploits quantum well (QW) states formed by partial electron confinement between the surface and buried nano-objects.

Methods: This was a non-interventional prospective, longitudinal study run in 23 centres between 2015 and 2016 that included 893 pregnant women.
Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of temporary proximal uterine artery embolization (UAE) for the treatment of highly vascularized retained products of conception (RPOCs).
Materials And Methods: This retrospective analysis included women who underwent treatment for vaginal bleeding after abortion, miscarriage, or delivery, with highly vascularized RPOCs detected by Doppler ultrasound (US) (ie, presence of an enhanced myometrial vascularity, a low resistance index of <0.5, and a peak systolic velocity of ≥0.
Article Synopsis
- Recent research focused on creating two-dimensional oxide dodecagonal quasicrystals from thin films of SrTiO or BaTiO perovskites on a Pt(111) buffer layer.
- The study discovered two new complex phases formed from the SrTiO film after high-temperature annealing, identifiable through techniques like low-energy electron diffraction and scanning tunneling microscopy.
- New phases include a large square approximant with a lattice parameter of 44.4 Å and a hexagonal approximant at 28 Å, both modeled using specific tiling patterns, and showing significant differences in their electronic structures.
