comeback as a blood pressure-lowering therapy years following the disappointing results of the SYMPLICITY HTN-3 trial, and now new randomized data from the ERADICATE-AF trial suggest that the procedure could have antiarrhythmic effects when performed in hypertensive patients undergoing A-fib ablation....
State of the art dual-beam FIB/SEM machines carry out the sectioning and imaging steps within the same unit, superseding time-intensive manual transfers between machines and allowing fully automated serial sectioning. However, full automation is always limited to a single material system. For the...
Periodontal infection is a long-lasting inflammatory condition caused by the growth and development of an abnormal and harmful community of microorganisms. This destructive illness leads to the loss of the tissues that support the teeth, degradation of t
leading to a lack of considerable reduction ofStaphylococcus aureusgrowth. Nevertheless, the cytotoxic effects of HGFib continue to exist. The presence of a considerable blood serum protein greatly reduces the antibacterial activity of AgNPs on various dangerous bacteria, even when the NPs are fixed ...
