Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common complication in hematologic malignancies and immunologic disorders. Endothelial cell injury and dysfunction comprise the critical contributor for the development of DVT. A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 13 (ADAMTS13), a plasma metalloprotease that cleaves von Willebrand factor, acts as a critical regulator in normal hemostasis.

Hydroxysafflor yellow A (HSYA) has shown substantial antioxidant stress and anti-ferroptosis.
Objective: This study confirms whether HSYA improves symptoms in a mouse model of T2DM/AS and elucidates the underlying mechanisms.
Background: To investigate the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of AngioJet Rheolytic Thrombectomy (ART) in the treatment of acute pulmonary embolism (APE).
Methods: Twelve patients with intermediate- or high-risk APE received ART and were followed up for 6-32 months. The technical success rate, clinical success rate, mortality, complication, and ancillary and laboratory tests before and after operation were analyzed retrospectively.

Deep venous thrombosis is one of the most common venous thromboembolic diseases and has a low cure rate and a high postoperative recurrence rate. Furthermore, emerging evidence indicates that microRNAs are involved in deep venous thrombosis. miR-296-5p is an important microRNA that plays a critical role in various cellular functions, and S100A4 is closely related to vascular function.

Although Western medicine has various surgical methods to treat varicose veins in the lower extremities, there are still a variety of complications. Some studies have shown that Buyang Huanwu decoction treatment of varicose veins of the lower extremities has a certain effect, and can reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications, but there is no evidence of evidence-based medicine.

VSMCs possess a phenotypic plasticity, capable of changing from a mature, contractile to a less differentiated, synthetic phenotype. In this study, we identify a microRNA candidate miR-331-3p that participates in regulating differentiation properties of VSMCs.

And traditional treatment was open surgery with total arch replacement by elephant trunk. Here, we report a case of PAU combined with ILVA managed by thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) technique.

Herein, ultrathin CoSeO3·H2O nanoribbons (thickness: ∼14 nm) with typical pseudocapacitive behavior were synthesized in a high yield by a solution-based refluxing process. Freestanding CoSeO3·H2O ribbon/hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotube (HWCNT) paper could be fabricated through a vacuum-assisted filtration strategy owing to its ultrathin nature, ribbon-like morphology and inherent flexibility.

Two-dimensional LDH nanosheets recently have generated considerable interest in various promising applications because of their intriguing properties. Herein, we report a facile in situ nucleation strategy toward in situ decorating monodispersed Ni-Fe LDH ultrafine nanosheets (UNs) on graphene oxide template based on the precise control and manipulation of LDH UNs anchored, nucleated, grown, and crystallized. Anion-exchange behavior was observed in this Ni-Fe LDH UNs@rGO composite.

However, the restriction of lattice mismatch remains a severe obstacle for heterogrowth of various core-shells with two distinct crystal structures. Herein, a controlled synthesis of lattice-mismatched core-shell TiO2 @MoS2 nano-onion heterostructures is successfully developed, using unilamellar Ti0.
