| The morphology of electrospun nanofiber matrices is similar to the natural ECM, and is characterized by ultra fine continuous fibers, high surface-to-volume ratio, high porosity, and variable pore-size distribution analogous to the dimensions of basement membranes. | |

| Got a sore throat? The doctor may write a quick prescription for penicillin or amoxicillin, and with the stroke of a pen help diminish public health and your own future health by helping bacteria evolve resistance to antibiotics. | |

| Anita Willis says the social worker offered her a painful choice: She could either leave the San Jose, Calif., nursing home where she'd spent a month recovering from a stroke — or come up with $336 a day to stay on. | |
|
| Substituting one to two servings of animal proteins with plant proteins every day could lead to a small reduction in the three main cholesterol markers for cardiovascular disease prevention, a new study suggests. | |
|
| Research is underway in many areas of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, being a rare and often missed diagnosis in cardiac medicine. | |
|
| New research published in Nutrients Journal has highlighted a strong link between low vitamin K status and cardiovascular mortality. | |

| At the neonatology ward of the Vienna General Hospital, physicians compared two mixtures of intravenous lipids for nutrition with support coming from the FWF. The researchers found no amelioration with respect to bile-flow complications in extremely low birth weight preterm babies in incubators, but they did discover more mature brain waves. | |

| Disorders caused by a leaky vasculature are more common than most people think. Despite ICU treatment, one third of the 27 million patients globally that suffer from sepsis, and up to 20% of the more than 5 million US patients with congestive heart failure die every year from their condition. | |
