Now the layer-by-layer self-assembling (LbL) technique has become an attention-getting reparative methodology for ultrathin film formation. Many scientists in different academic areas including bioengieering, medical science, drug controlled release, optoelectronics dive into this technology. Among of them, carriers with structures which can be flexibly controlled are more useful since functional structure units can be assembled in layer-by-layer fashion, which is simplicity, chemical mildness, concealment, can achieve targeted drug delivery and so on. In this review, we have discussed the advantage, development, influential factors and applications of LbL. We have focused on reviewing the applications and perspective of nanoparticles, microgels and capsules were both fabricated via the LbL assembling at drug delivery.

Pulsed drug delivery(PDD),which can be released at well-defined time points as the therapy needs,can decrease the frequency and avoid taking drug at night,thus improving patient compliance.Here we introduce three kinds of programmed PDD systems independent of external chemical triggering;they are divided according to the triggering mechanisms:degradation-triggered PDD,osmotic pressure-triggered PDD,and both degradationi and osmotic pressure-triggered PDD.This paper reviews preparing technique,release mechanisms and influencing factors of the three PDD systems.The release profiles of pulsatile PDD can be regulated for different therapeutic needs,requiring no external triggers;especially that the PDD system triggered by both degradation and osmotic pressure has a bright future.

【Objective】 To design and manufacture a non-destructive intestinal decompression device and explore its effect on closed intestinal decompression in patients with intestinal obstruction. 【Methods】 A total of 78 patients with intestinal obstruction who underwent intestinal decompression in our hospital from January 2020 to September 2021 were selected as the research subjects: 40 in the control group and 38 in the experimental group. The traditional intestinal decompression method was used in the control group while the non-invasive intestinal decompression device method was used in the experimental group. We compared the number of cases of intestinal content pollution, drainage volume of intestinal content decompression, operation time, hospital stay, incidence of complications, and other indexes between the two groups. 【Results】 The two groups did no significantly differ in the general data (P>0.05). There were 10 cases (26.32%) of intestinal content pollution in the experimental group and 40 cases (100%) in the control group. The intestinal decompression drainage volume in the experimental group was 750.00 (728.75, 827.50) mL and 535.00 (520.00557.50) mL in the control group, with significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The operation time, operation time and hospital stay were significantly shorter in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). There was no incision infection in the experimental group but 6 cases in the control group, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in other abdominal infection, anastomotic fistula, or enterostomy-related complications (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 The non-invasive intestinal decompression device can perform closed intestinal decompression in the operation of intestinal obstruction, reduce the pollution of the operation field, shorten operation time and hospital stay, and reduce the incidence of incision infection.
