Clothing is one of the primary human needs, and the demand is met by the global production of thousands of tons of textile fibers, fabrics and garments every day. Polyester clothing manufactured from oil-based polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is the market leader. Conventional PET creates pollution along its entire value chain—during the production...

Purpose of ReviewMyocardial viability is an important pathophysiologic concept which may have significant clinical impact in patients with left ventricular dysfunction due to ischemic heart disease. Understanding the imaging modalities used to assess viability, and the clinical implication of their findings, is critical for clinical decision-making...

To engineer polymer surfaces with long-lasting wettability properties and with high coating stability in aqueous media, we investigated the surface wettability of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films treated by radio frequency (RF) atmospheric-pressure plasma. By combining plasma activation and hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO)-based plasma polymeriza...

Proinflammatory macrophages are important mediators of inflammation after myocardial infarction and of allograft injury after heart transplantation. The aim of this study was to image the recruitment of proinflammatory chemokine receptor 2-positive (CCR2+) cells in multiple heart injury models. Methods: 64Cu-DOTA-extracellular loop 1 inverso (ECL1i...

The low detection rate of conventional imaging and unspecific fluctuations in prostate-specific antigen can hamper early diagnosis of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). We thus assessed the value of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT in the detection of early CRPC (prostate-specific antigen ≤ 3 ng/mL). Methods: We identified...

Over the last 10 years, rates of alcohol use disorder (AUD) have increased in women by 84% relative to a 35% increase in men. Rates of alcohol use and high-risk drinking have also increased in women by 16% and 58% relative to a 7% and 16% increase in men, respectively, over the last decade. This robust increase in drinking among women highlights th...

To determine the extent of metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5 (mGluR5) network abnormalities associated with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD), we performed graph theoretical analysis of [11C]ABP688 PET binding potentials (BPND), which allows for quantification of mGluR5 availability. Undirected graphs were constructed for the entire cortex in 17 ...

Adoptive cell transfer of targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells has emerged as a highly promising cancer therapy. The pharmacodynamic action or CAR T cells is closely related to their pharmacokinetic profile; because of this as well as the risk of non-specific action, it is important to monitor their biodistribution and fate following in...

Inflammatory changes caused by viruses, bacteria, exposure to toxins, commonly used drugs and even surgical intervention have the potential of causing abnormal epithelial permeability, which is manifest as infiltrative processes on computed tomography (CT), including the widespread infiltrates seen in COVID-19 pneumonia and acute respiratory distre...

AbstractIn this work, two naphthalene scaffolds dangling around a benzene moiety as a colorimetric and fluorimetric probe for Fe3+ in aqueous media have been reported. Recognition processes of Fe3+ were shown to be scarcely influenced by other coexisting metal ions. The probe exhibits a turn on colorimetric and a turn off fluorimetric detection of ...
