Development of a Swine Whole Eye Transplant Ex Vivo Perfusion Protocol

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study establishes the first subnormothermic machine perfusion protocol for whole eye transplants in a swine model, enabling up to 18 h of preservation with stable metabolic function, limited edema, and recovery of mydriasis. ABSTRACT Background The first human Whole Eye Transplant (WET) has sparked new hope for patients who have lost vision due to

Thermoregulatory integration in hand prosthesis and humanoid robots through blood vessel simulation

NPG Asia Materials
AbstractIn this paper, we introduce a new approach to give robotic faces a thermal signature similar to that of humans and equip prosthetic or robotic hands with a lifelike temperature. This enhances their detection by infrared cameras and promotes more natural interactions between humans and robots.

Hormonal Treatment During Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion Ameliorates Brain Death Induced Inflammation

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Treatment of lungs during ex vivo perfusion with 17β‐estradiol and methylprednisolone improved graft quality. In females, treated and non‐treated groups presented reduced leukocyte infiltration and only the treatment improved perfusion flow. In males, treatment improved lung function by increasing compliance, paO2, and perfusion flow.
