Miniaturized Magnetic Tip Design for Endoluminal Vine Robot Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetic tip mount is designed for a miniaturized 7 mm soft‐growing vine robot to enable wireless magnetic steering and onboard imaging, while preserving a 3 mm working channel. The internal–external ring magnets design balances magnetic attachment with low eversion pressure. Experiments demonstrate ±90° steering, 34 mm bending radius, and successful

Impact of demographic changes and screening colonoscopy on long-term projection of incident colorectal cancer cases in Germany: A modelling study

open access: yesThe Lancet Regional Health. Europe, 2022
Summary: Background: Demographic aging is expected to increase the number of colorectal cancer (CRC) cases in many countries. Screening for CRC can substantially reduce the disease burden but its use has remained rather limited in Germany.

Patients’ Willingness to Share Limited Endoscopic Resources: A Brief Report on the Results of a Large Regional Survey

open access: yesMDM Policy & Practice, 2021
Background. In some health care systems, patients face long wait times for screening colonoscopy. We sought to assess whether patients at low risk for colorectal cancer (CRC) would be willing to delay their own colonoscopy so higher-risk peers could ...

MZF1 Inhibits TGFβ‐1/SMAD Signaling by Transcriptionally Activating SnoN to Augment Tumorigenic Potential in Colon Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies MZF1 as a core regulator of colon cancer via SnoN‐mediated TGF‐β suppression, proposes 10Panx Acetate as a targeted inhibitor, and validates MZF1/SnoN as prognostic markers for aggressive disease. ABSTRACT Colon cancer progression is associated with transcriptional and signaling abnormalities.
