Determination of the solubility of methyldopa in supercritical carbon dioxide for drug delivery applications: thermal analysis.

The production of fine particles by green technology like supercritical carbon dioxide requires the assessment of substantial solubility data at high pressures. This study represents the first determination of the solubility of methyldopa in carbon dioxide at pressures and temperatures ranging from 12 to 30 MPa and from 313.2 to 343.

Precision Oncology: Advances in Drug Delivery and Imaging.

The development of precise and reliable cancer treatments has been a long-standing goal in oncology. Conventional therapies often affect healthy tissues, leading to significant side effects. To overcome these challenges, researchers are exploring new methodologies that combine advanced drug delivery systems with state-of-the-art imaging technologies to target tumors more effectively.

Magnetic resonance imaging in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies: deciphering the pattern of muscle involvement.

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) constitute a group of immune-mediated disorders, affecting muscles. Our study aims to investigate the specific patterns of muscle involvement in subgroups of IIM. An ambispective and observational study was conducted.

Impact of Higher Cell-Free DNA Yields on Liquid Biopsy Testing in Glioblastoma Patients.

Background: Minimally invasive molecular profiling using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is increasingly important to the management of cancer patients; however, low sensitivity remains a major limitation, particularly for brain tumor patients. Transiently attenuating cfDNA clearance from the body-thereby, allowing more cfDNA to be sampled-has been proposed to improve the performance of liquid biopsy diagnostics. However, there is a paucity of clinical data on the effect of higher cfDNA recovery.
