Diagnosis of Portal Hypertension: Advancing Towards Non‐Invasive Solutions
This review systematically summarizes a full spectrum of non‐invasive diagnostic approaches for portal hypertension (PH), including imaging modalities, elastography, serum biomarkers, composite scoring systems and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided portal pressure gradient (EUS‐PPG), and analyzes their performance across different liver disease etiologies ...

ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

ABSTRACT People with physical disabilities face significant mobility challenges while climbing uneven surfaces and staircases. In these circumstances, traditional wheelchairs do not provide stable, safely controlled mobility, underscoring the importance of building superior stair‐climbing wheelchairs for both medical and infrastructure purposes.

Shear‐Responsive Red Blood Cell Carriers for Targeted Drug Delivery to Constricted Arteries
Red blood cells are harnessed as mechanoresponsive carriers that exploit the elevated shear stress of stenotic arteries to transiently open membrane pores and release encapsulated therapeutics selectively at sites of arterial narrowing. By coupling vascular hemodynamics with RBC membrane mechanics, a hemodynamically activated platform for localized ...

Metal/Si Nanowire Arrays for Hot Electron Catalysis
Silicon nanowire arrays enhance plasmon‐driven catalysis by strengthening light–matter interactions on Au and Ag nanostructured coatings. Hotspot accessibility, rather than near‐field intensity alone, governs photocatalytic performance, while Ag nanoshells exhibit superior activity. The work establishes high‐surface‐area Si nanowire arrays as versatile
