Multiscale structural evolution of citrate-triggered intrafibrillar and interfibrillar mineralization in dense collagen gels
(
Academic Press Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
The mineralized extracellular matrix of bone is an organic?inorganic nanocomposite consisting primarily of carbonated hydroxyapatite, fibrous type I collagen, noncollagenous proteins, proteoglycans, and diverse biomolecules ...
Highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles on ultrasmall EMT zeolite: A peroxidase-mimic nanoenzyme for detection of H2O2 or glucose
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
In past decade, Pt-based nanomaterials as peroxidase mimics have attracted much attention for H2O2 and glucose detection. However, easy aggregation of Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs) greatly decreases their peroxidase-like ...
Optical absorption enhancement in polymer BHJ thin film using Ag nanostructures: A simulation study
(
Bentham Science Publishers
, 2020 , Article)
Background: The photo-absorption and light trapping through the different layers of the organic solar cell structures are a growing concern now-a-days as it affects dramatically the overall efficiency of the cells. In fact, ...
Postoperative administration of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, donepezil, interferes with bone healing and implant osseointegration in a rat model
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Donepezil is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor commonly used to treat mild to moderate Alzheimer?s disease. Its use has been associated with increased bone mass in humans and animals. However, the effect of postoperative ...
Composition and characteristics of trabecular bone in osteoporosis and osteoarthritis
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
Background
Bone strength depends on multiple factors such as bone density, architecture and composition turnover. However, the role these factors play in osteoporotic fractures is not well understood.
Purpose
The aim ...
Is there truly an increase in risk of cardiovascular and hematological adverse events with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors?
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Objectives: Recent studies have shown an increase risk of cardiovascular and hematological adverse events associated with vascular endothelial growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGF-TKIs). The authors hypothesize ...
Patient-Specific Seizure Detection Using Nonlinear Dynamics and Nullclines
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
Nonlinear dynamics has recently been extensively used to study epilepsy due to the complex nature of the neuronal systems. This study presents a novel method that characterizes the dynamic behavior of pediatric seizure ...
NiFe2O4/poly(ethylene glycol)/lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles for anti-cancer drug delivery
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2020 , Article)
The present study reports the fabrication of hybrid nanoparticles consisting of nickel ferrite (NFO) for anti cancer drug delivery. The hybrid system was formulated from poly(vinyl alcohol)/stearic acid with PEG containing ...
Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles for Different Isolates in Aden, Yemen: A Cross-Sectional Study in a Resource-Poor Setting
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2020 , Article)
Background. There is a rapid deterioration in the effectiveness of antibiotics due to the global prevalence of bacterial antimicrobial resistance (AMR). AMR can cause an increase in mortality and morbidity due to treatment ...
Nanotoxicology of dendrimers in the mammalian heart: Ex vivo and in vivo administration of g6 pamam nanoparticles impairs recovery of cardiac function following ischemia-reperfusion injury
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
Aim: The effects of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers on the mammalian heart are not completely understood. In this study, we have investigated the effects of a sixth-generation cationic dendrimer (G6 PAMAM) on cardiac ...
