New Perspectives on Semiconducting Conjugated Oligomers for Neuromodulation in Hydra vulgaris

Advanced 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.

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

BJS (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 ...

Comparing the mechanical energetics of walking among individuals with unilateral transfemoral limb loss using socket and osseointegrated prosthetic interfaces

Scientific Reports
Osseointegration (OI), or bone-anchoring, of a prosthesis is a transformative procedure for addressing issues of socket fit among individuals with lower limb loss. Mechanically, the removal of the socket interface substantially alters the transmission of

Osseointegration Following Transfemoral Amputation After Infected Total Knee Replacement: A Case Series of 10 Patients With a Mean Follow-up of 5 Years

Arthroplasty Today, 2022
Background: Management of total knee replacement (TKR) infection may sometimes prompt knee fusion (KF) or transfemoral amputation (TFA), both associated with low mobility and quality of life (QOL).

Population-based secular trends in lower-extremity amputation for diabetes and peripheral artery disease

Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2019
BACKGROUND: The evolving clinical burden of limb loss secondary to diabetes and peripheral artery disease remains poorly characterized. We sought to examine secular trends in the rate of lower-extremity amputations related to diabetes, peripheral artery ...

AN AMPUTATION RETRACTOR. [PDF]

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1907
For years in doing amputations I have felt the need of some sort of efficient retractor to take the place of the two-tailed or three-tailed cloth retractor commonly used. The cloth sometimes holds the soft parts away from the saw, but frequently does not, the consequence being that the muscles are shredded or bruised enough to cause sloughing, or, on ...

Electrical Monitoring of Vibrio vulnificus–Host Cell Membrane Interactions in Simple and Complex Matrices

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Supported lipid bilayers coupled with multielectrode array devices offer significant promise for pathogen–host cell membrane interaction studies. This work demonstrates, for the first time, the compatibility of this platform with biological fluids, in this case whole human blood, essential for any future point‐of‐care applications; as well as its ...
