The invention relates to methods of cardiovascular imaging and/or measurement of blood markers for detecting, diagnosing and/or prognosing cardiac or myocardial microbleeds, especially in subject with hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. Treatment methods are also provided for subjects identified, diagnosed, prognosed, or detected with cardiac or myocardial microbleeds. In some embodiments, the subject has hypertension-induced microbleeds, but has not had a myocardial infarction or reperfusion therapy.

Novel p62 ligand compounds, or a stereoisomer, a solvate, a hydrate, or a prodrug thereof are disclosed. The novel compounds, stereoisomer, solvate, hydrate, or prodrug activates selective autophagy in cells to selectively remove proteins, organelles, and coagulations in the body, and thus can be advantageously used as a pharmaceutical composition for preventing, ameliorating, or treating various proteinopathies. Compositions such as pharmaceutical composition or food compositions containing the novel p62 ligand compounds, stereoisomer, solvate, hydrate, or prodrug thereof as well as uses thereof are disclosed.

Drug delivery systems and wearable articles including the drug delivery systems are provided. The drug delivery systems may include a substrate coated with at least one polymer and at least one active compound. The substrate is operable to include yarns, yarn precursors, threads, filaments, fibers, and/or other suitable substrates. Methods for manufacturing drug delivery systems are also provided. The methods are operable to include disposing a solution including a monomer and an active compound on the substrate. The methods are also operable to include exposing the solution and the substrate to UV light to initiate polymerization of the solution.
