BackgroundVasopressors are commonly applied to restore and maintain blood pressure in patients with sepsis. We aimed to evaluate the current practice and therapeutic goals regarding vasopressor use in septic shock as a basis for future studies and to provide some recommendations on their use.MethodsFrom November 2016 to April 2017, an anonymous web...
We present a facile approach of a switchable polymer-gold nanoparticle, which programmatically co-delivers genes and chemical drugs (gene-chem). Between the delivery pathway and specific diseased cells the nanoparticle is switchable and allows for enhanced computed tomography (CT) imaging and synergistic neuronal recovery. The delivery system with ...

Peptide-coordination self-assembly demonstrates great potential in the precise design of next-generation theranostic nanodrugs. It has the advantages of high biosafety, versatile system design, easy control over the self-assembled structures, facile incorporation of various functionalities, and greatly enhanced stability of the complex materials as...

Photothermal therapy in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) exhibits a significant advantage over the first near-infrared window (NIR-I, 650-950 nm) in terms of both maximum permissible exposure (MPE) and penetration depth. However, the thus far reported NIR-II photothermal agents (PTAs) have been focused just on inorganic semico...

Spatiotemporally coupled tumor phototheranostic platforms offer a flexible and precise system that takes the biological interaction between tumors and photoactive agents into consideration for optimizing treatment, which is highly consistent with precision medicine. However, the fabrication of monocomponent-based photoactive agents applicable to mu...

BackgroundHereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a rare vascular dysplasia resulting in visceral arteriovenous malformations and smaller mucocutaneous telangiectasia. Most patients experience recurrent nosebleeds and become anemic without iron supplementation. However, thousands may require anticoagulation for conditions such as venous thro...
