Early infarct growth rate is associated with symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage after endovascular thrombectomy.

Background: Time elapsed from stroke onset and baseline infarct volume is influential on endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) outcomes.

Objectives: This study aimed to explore the utility of early infarct growth rate (EIGR) measured by apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in predicting symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) of ischemic stroke patients after EVT.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients from the prospectively maintained stroke registry admitted between January 2019 and March 2023, presenting with large vessel occlusive stroke in the anterior circulation.

Mo-Pb redox triggers self-enhanced removal and recovery of Pb with superselectivity.

Membrane-based electrodeposition (MED) has emerged as a promising approach for reversible removal-recovery of toxic but valuable Pb. However, limited by the low specificity of membrane deposition toward various heavy metal ions in MED, the selective removal of Pb remains an obstacle. Inspired by the soft-hard acid-base theory, here we developed a Pb-affinity electroactive membrane by incorporating MoS with the cation exchange membrane (CEM) to achieve a tandem Pb selective adsorption-deposition process.

Knockdown of Alleviates Neuropathological Hallmarks and Cognitive Deficiency in a Model of Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease.

Objective: Recently, we revealed that triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-like 2 (TREML2) modulated inflammation by regulating microglial polarization and NLRP3 inflammasome activation. However, the role of TREML2 in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis remains poorly understood. In this study, we tried to observe the impact of TREML2 on neuropathological hallmarks (including amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology, hyperphosphorylated tau and neuroinflammation) and cognitive deficiency in senescence-accelerated mouse prone substrain 8 (SAMP8) mice, an animal model of sporadic AD.

Catechol-derived Mannich bases: radical regulatory properties, cytotoxicity and interaction with biomolecules.

Free radicals are ubiquitous in biological systems, being responsible for pathogenesis of degenerative diseases and participating in vitally important biochemical processes, which are mediated by radical regulatory agents. The effects of the aliphatic amine substituents in the catechol-derived Mannich bases on their antioxidant and pro-oxidant activity were investigated. It has been found that the presence of catechol moiety in the structure of Mannich bases allows them to act as Cu(II) reductants, efficient Fe(II) chelators and potent DPPH radical scavengers.

Multi-functional Gleditsia sinensis galactomannan-based hydrogel with highly stretchable, adhesive, and antibacterial properties as wound dressing for accelerating wound healing.

Design and development of a multifunctional wound dressing with self-healing, adhesive, and antibacterial properties to attain optimal wound closure efficiency are highly desirable in clinical applications. Nevertheless, conventional hydrogels face significant barriers in their mechanical strength, adhesive performance, and antibacterial properties. Herein, a tough hydrogel based on aldehyde-grafted galactomannan was synthesized through radical copolymerization and Schiff base reaction, incorporating hyaluronic acid, acrylamide, and the zwitterionic monomer to create a multi-crosslinked structure.
