July 2025 in “Advanced Science” This study developed multifunctional microneedle patches with CTB nanozymes that successfully eradicated MRSA infections in wounds by combining near-infrared laser-induced nitric oxide release and local hyperthermia, while also regulating oxidative stress, inflammation, and angiogenesis through specific signaling pathways.
June 2011 in “British Journal of Urology” This review discusses the challenges in developing combination therapies for urological conditions and notes that regulatory requirements and financial disincentives hinder progress, without presenting new clinical findings.
