Here, we proposed a novel local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) enhanced ECL strategy based on the metallic inverse opals and Ru(bpy)-doped silica nanoparticles (RuSi NPs). Gold inverse opals (GIOs), as a plasmonic array, could interact with the ECL of RuSi NPs and excite the electromagnetic (EM) field at the gold surface. The triggered EM field could enhance the ECL emission of RuSi NPs. We compared the electrochemical and ECL performances of RuSi NPs modified on the gold electrodes with different surface morphologies and found that the ECL emission of RuSi NPs patterned at the inner surface of GIOs exhibited the highest intensity. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations indicated that the EM field was related to the surface morphology of the metallic nanostructure, and the highest EM field was observed at the inner surface of the GIOs. Because of the superior ECL performances, the inner surfaces of GIOs were developed for nucleic acid detection with a detection limit of 3.3 fM (S/N = 3), which shows great promise for bioanalysis.

Sensitive and accurate detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is of great significance since it is regarded as a biomarker for prostate diseases. Herein, a facile strategy for the design of highly efficient electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensor was proposed for PSA assay. Carboxylated graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) nanosheet (CCN) and tris (2, 2'-Bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) (Ru(bpy)) encapsulated in silica nanospheres (RuSi NPs) were employed as the donor and acceptor, respectively.

Myocardial miRNAs in peripheral blood are closely related to the pathogenic process of myocardial infarction. Rapid identification and accurate quantification of myocardial miRNAs are of great significance to clinical interventions for treating cardiovascular lesions. Therefore, a ratiometric electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor integrating DNAzyme with a resonance energy transfer (RET) system was designed to detect myocardial miRNA.

An in situ quenching electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor sensitized with the aptamer recognition-induced multi-DNA release was designed for pathogenic bacterial detection. Benefitting from the high binding ability of the aptamer to targets and large enrichment capacity of magnetic bead separation, the proposed sensing system not only exhibited outstanding identification to Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) among various bacteria, but also released abundant signal transduction DNAs.

Myofascial pain syndrome is one of the most common complaints in patients referring to orthopedic treatment centers. The present study aimed to examine the effects of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) and dry needling (DN) on active myofascial trigger points (AMTrP) of the upper trapezius muscle (UTM). The current study was designed as a randomized clinical trial and a total of 81 patients, aged 18-40 years, with active myofascial trigger points in the upper trapezius muscle were randomly divided into 3 groups: group 1 (n = 30) received DN treatment, group 2 (n = 26) received IASTM treatment, and group 3 (n = 25) was considered as the control group (no intervention).
