New evidence has stirred up a long‐standing but undeservedly forgotten interest in the role
of erythrocytes, or red blood cells (RBCs), in blood clotting and its disorders. This review …

Many factors in the surrounding environment have been reported to influence erythrocyte
deformability. It is likely that some influences represent reversible changes in erythrocyte …

Hydrophobically modified glycol chitosan (HGC) nanoparticles, a new nano-sized drug
carrier, were prepared by introducing a hydrophobic molecule, cholanic acid, to water …

Thrombosis is a common disorder with a relevant burden of morbidity and mortality
worldwide, particularly among elderly patients. Growing evidence demonstrated a direct role …

Red blood cells (RBCs) deformability refers to the cells' ability to adapt their shape to the
dynamically changing flow conditions so as to minimize their resistance to flow. The high red …

The viscosity of blood is an indicator in the understanding and treatment of disease. An
elevated blood viscosity has been demonstrated in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus …

Uncontrolled hemorrhage results in various complications and is currently the leading cause
of death in the general population. Traditional hemostatic methods have drawbacks that may …

It is one of the most emergent challenges to prepare wound dressings for quickly and
