An Independent Predictor of Technical Success in Patients with Chronic Total Occlusions: The Atherogenic Index of Plasma

OBJECTIVE: The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) has been increasingly associated with coronary artery disease and adverse cardiovascular outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical relevance of AIP in predicting technical success in percutaneous coronary intervention (PC...

Thermo‐Responsive Thermoplastic Polyurethane/Poly(Isobutyl Methacrylate) Polymer Blends

ABSTRACT In this research, elastomeric thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and amorphous poly(isobutyl methacrylate) (PiBMA) were used to prepare polymer blends with compositions of 90/10, 80/20, 70/30, 60/40, and 50/50 (wt%) via melt blending. Morphological analysis revealed that c...

Clinicopathological Features, Tumor Localization and Treatment Outcomes in Paraganglioma: A Single-Center Medical Oncology Cohort

Background/Objectives: Paragangliomas (PGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors, and data describing them from a medical oncology perspective are limited. We characterized clinicopathological features, tumor localization, and treatment outcomes. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 4...

Ammonia-Responsive Gelatin/Co–MOF Composite Films Based on Gallic Acid-Derived Metal–Organic Frameworks for Intelligent Food Packaging

Ammonia-responsive gelatin-based composite films containing cobalt metal–organic frameworks (Co–MOFs) synthesized using gallic acid as an organic ligand were developed and evaluated as intelligent packaging materials. Co–MOFs were incorporated into gelatin films at concentrations...
