Defined matrices bring IBD to 3D

Towards SDN-Defined Programmable BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) Security

An emerging trend in corporate network administration is BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). Although with many advantages, the paradigm shift presents new challenges in security to enterprise networks. While existing solutions such as Mobile Device Management (MDM) focus mainly on controlling and protecting device data, they fall short in providing a holistic network protection system. New innovatio...

Transparent Porous Polysaccharide Cryogels Provide Biochemically Defined, Biomimetic Matrices for Tunable 3D Cell Culture

Biomimetic scaffolds are desirable for 3D cell culture, yet optically transparent, macroporous, polysaccharide hydrogels have been limited. By incorporating soluble monoand disaccharide additives during cryogelation, we synthesized biomimetic scaffolds and gained insight into the mechanism of their formation. The mono/disaccharide additives affect the size of ice crystal porogens and interact w...

Lectins bring benefits to bones

The discovery that proteins called c-type lectins promote bone growth could lead to new treatments for age-related bone disorders.

Bridges to excellence quality indicators in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD): differences between IBD and non-IBD gastroenterologists

BACKGROUND The American Gastroenterology Association (AGA) Bridges to Excellence (BTE) Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Care Recognition program encourages clinicians to develop a superior quality of care in the treatment of IBD. We evaluated adherence to BTE measures in the care of IBD patients among IBD and non-IBD gastrointestinal physicians at a tertiary care hospital. METHODS We performe...
