Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Fiber‐Based Wearable Electronics as Adaptive Biointerfaces for Healthcare Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Fiber‐based wearable electronics have been extensively studied as adaptive healthcare biointerfaces. In this review, we classify and introduce fiber‐based systems according to biointerface design, conductive materials, transduction mechanisms, and healthcare applications, and provide a perspective on their translation toward reliable, continuous ...

The impact of filling procedure for labial augmentation (FPLA) therapy on the stability of lip print: A longitudinal study

Forensic Science International: Reports
Lip print identification is one of the forensic identification tools recognized a long time ago. Few studies investigated the stability of lip prints, particularly the changes attributed to time or aging.

Dynamic Physicochemical Gradients for Tendon–Bone Regeneration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Dynamic physicochemical gradients offer a framework for reconnecting soft tendon and hard bone. This Review examines how hydration, transport, loading and degradation reshape these gradients during healing. Coordinating regional biological cues with progressive transfer of load from scaffold to tissue guides the design of interfaces that retain ...

NeuroVisio SyncPatch: A Skin‐Conformal Multimodal EMG–Motion Sensing Platform for Quantitative Neuromuscular Rehabilitation and Performance Monitoring

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
NeuroVisio SyncPatch integrates skin‐conformal electromyography (EMG) electrodes with camera‐tracked markers to jointly assess muscle activity and three‐dimensional knee kinematics during rehabilitation. Parallel feedback pathways provide real‐time kinematic guidance during movement and post‐trial neuromuscular feedback.

Smell Therapy with Augmented Reality

WSEAS TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTERS
This research investigates the potential of integrating odor-based stimuli with augmented reality (AR) technology for treating psychological disorders such as PTSD and anxiety. The sense of smell strongly affects the limbic system, which is closely associated with emotional regulation and memory, highlighting its relevance for therapeutic applications.

Customized biomaterials to augment chondrocyte gene therapy

Acta Biomaterialia, 2017
A persistent challenge in enhancing gene therapy is the transient availability of the target gene product. This is particularly true in tissue engineering applications. The transient exposure of cells to the product could be insufficient to promote tissue regeneration.
