Clean Cut (adaptive, multimodal surgical infection prevention programme) for low‐resource settings: a prospective quality improvement study

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Clean Cut is a multimodal, adaptive, checklist‐based infection prevention programme designed to improve compliance with six critical perioperative infection prevention practices. After introducing the programme at five hospitals in Ethiopia, compliance with critical infection prevention standards significantly improved and the relative risk of ...

Roll‐To‐Roll Production of Smart Dressings for Wound Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a roll‐to‐roll manufactured smart wound dressing capable of visually monitoring key wound biomarkers, including pH, humidity, and temperature. By integrating colorimetric sensors into flexible dressing substrates, the device offers real‐time, equipment‐free insights for infection detection and wound management, representing a ...

Evaluation of biological sex on endstage pathobiology and regenerative treatment of volumetric muscle loss

open access: yesScientific Reports
Volumetric muscle loss (VML) is a severe injury resulting in substantial skeletal muscle loss, leading to a complex pathology that culminates in suboptimal tissue repair and significant long-term functional deficits.

New Perspectives on Semiconducting Conjugated Oligomers for Neuromodulation in Hydra vulgaris

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Semiconducting organic compounds, thiophene‐based, modify the rhythmic electrical activity of the cnidarian Hydra vulgaris acting on specific neuronal circuits. The ETE‐S trimer also forms electronically conducting wires in the living tissues of the animal.

Self-energy effects in the Polchinski and Wick-ordered renormalization-group approaches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
I discuss functional renormalization group (fRG) schemes, which allow for non-perturbative treatment of the self-energy effects and do not rely on the one-particle irreducible functional.
