NCs provide versatile building blocks to fabricate hierarchical superstructures. The assembly of NCs indeed offers opportunities to devise new materials with given structures and able to carry out specific functions. In this Concept article, we highlight the possibilities offered by NCs in which the physicochemical properties are controlled by the introduction of foreign metal atoms and/or modification of the composition of the capping monolayer with functional ligands. Different approaches to assemble NCs into dimers and higher hierarchy structures and the corresponding changes in physicochemical properties are also described. This study aimed at determining whether uninterrupted novel oral anticoagulant (UI-NOAC) would have similar rates of bleeding and thromboembolic events as minimally interrupted NOAC (MI-NOAC) at the time of ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) as relevant studies are scarce. We searched through the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases for prospective observational studies (POSs) or randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing UI-NOAC versus MI-NOAC from their establishment to January 2020. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to compare the pooled treatment effect. Nine studies (three POSs and six RCTs) with 2578 patients were included in the final analysis (55% patients received MI-NOAC). No significant difference was found regarding the risk of major bleeding (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.43-2.00, P=.84, I =0%). Both groups were comparable in all subgroups ([Asians OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.43-2.36, P=.99, I =0%], [non-A
