Seroma formation is a well-recognized postoperative complication for many plastic and general surgical procedures. Although various tissue adhesives substances have been used in an effort to treat seroma formation, no therapies established clinically. Recently, the nano-bridging phenomenon has introduced as promising approach achieve adhesion strong closure of deep skin wounds rats. The present...

BACKGROUND Ketamine has been reported to exert anti-inflammatory effects on macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vitro and in vivo. Several studies have reported conflicting results regarding the effects of propofol on cytokine production from immune cells. However, there have been no reports of the effects of these agents on inflammatory responses in glial cells. We investig...

While solid-state NMR spectroscopic techniques have helped clarify the local structure and dynamics of ionic conductors, similar studies of mixed ionic-electronic conductors (MIECs) have been hampered by the paramagnetic behavior of these systems. Here we report high-resolution (17)O (I = 5/2) solid-state NMR spectra of the mixed-conducting solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathode material La2NiO4+...
