Pocket hematoma is a common and serious complication following cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation, contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a novel pocket compression device in reducing pocket hematoma occurrence. We enrolled 242 patients undergoing CIED implantation, randomly assigning them to receive either the novel compression vest with a pressure cuff or conventional sandbag compression.

Chronic wounds present a substantial healthcare obstacle, marked by an extended healing period that can persist for weeks, months, or even years. Typically, they do not progress through the usual phases of healing, which include hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, within the expected timeframe. Therefore, to address the socioeconomic burden in taking care of chronic wounds, hydrogel-based therapeutic materials have been proposed.

Understanding the permeation of drugs through the intercellular lipid matrix of the stratum corneum layer of skin is crucial for effective transdermal delivery. Molecular dynamics simulations can provide molecular insights into the permeation process. In this study, we developed a new atomistic model representing the multilamellar arrangement of lipids in the stratum corneum intercellular space for permeation studies.
