Wellbore Fracture Mode and Fracture Pressure Drilled in Depleted Reservoir by Kai Zhao, Junliang Yuan, Ming Liu, Chuanliang Yan, Liangbin Dou, Gang Bi, Runsen Li, Wei Gao

“…In this paper, the analysis focuses on the fracture mode and fracture pressure in depleted reservoir, and case studies show that three fracture modes may first occur, and the fracture mode will be changed with reservoir depletion which highly depends on reservoir depletion degree, well azimuth and deviation angle, and the in situ stress state; different failure criteria at different stages of reservoir depletion should be selected to accurately evaluate the fracture pressure. …”

Golden Tandem of Photothermal Ablation and Simultaneous Anti-Inflammation in One Nanoparticle for Activated Macrophage-Targeted Atherosclerosis Treatment by Lu Y, Wang Y, Li Y, Li Y, Jiang YW, Li J

“…The preparation and characterization of GSNPD, their cellular toxicity, photothermal conversion and targeted ablation efficiency, anti-inflammation and ROS scavenging effect, as well as the inhibition of foam cell formation were studied in vitro.Results: The experimental results showed that the fabricated GSNPD NPs displayed positive effects on anti-atherosclerosis by pro-inflammatory macrophages ablation, NO production and ROS scavenging.Discussion: GSNPD NPs were designed to effectively and accurately ablate pro-inflammatory macrophages by recognizing and targeting to SR-A overexpressed on the activated macrophages of arterial plaques via PTT, and simultaneous inhibit the PTT-induced inflammation through the laser-activated NO release in situ. This match of therapeutic agents and inhibitors not only achieves good therapeutic effects but also minimizes side effects as much as possible, which may provide an effective way for PTT-based treatment of atherosclerosis.Keywords: gold nanorods, photothermal therapy, NO, activated macrophages, atherosclerosis…”
