An Integrated and Flexible Humidity Sensor for Noncontact Handwriting Recognition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A noncontact handwriting recognition system is fabricated by directly integrating a 4 × 4 flexible humidity sensing array and a designed flexible sampling circuit. Assisted with a CNN model, the handwriting recognition system can realize the recognition of handwriting digits 1–9 with an average accuracy of 98.67%.

Modulation of cough response by sensory inputs from the nose - role of trigeminal TRPA1 versus TRPM8 channels [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Cough, the most important airways defensive mechanism is modulated by many afferent inputs either from respiratory tussigenic areas, but also by afferent drive from other organs.

Design, Modeling, and Control of a Soft Robotic Diaphragm‐Assist Device in a Respiratory Simulator

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A soft robotic diaphragm‐assist device using fabric‐based pneumatic actuators with a 2‐step control system to optimize synchronization and support is introduced. This system can detect the initiation of breathing to trigger assistance and regulate pressures to provide the correct level of inhalation augmentation. Validation and testing are completed on

Hierarchical Superposition Framework Reveals the Complex Effects of Natural Medicine Formulas

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A novel hierarchical superposition pharmacological model incorporates the principle of hierarchical structures from physics to simulate the spatiotemporal dynamics of drug combinations, to elucidate the universal law underlying drug combination effects. By modeling cross‐level causal transmission and attenuation, it advances beyond traditional additive

Gut Microbiome Pilot Study of Patients With CHARGE Syndrome and Sibling Controls

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Difficulties with feeding and digestion are common in individuals with CHARGE syndrome. Animal models with CHD7 gene variants demonstrate abnormal gut innovation and dysmotility. Our pilot study evaluated whether individuals with CHARGE syndrome have differences in their gut microbiome compared to unaffected siblings.

Beyond the Lung. Impact of Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor on Sinonasal Disease in Children With Cystic Fibrosis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) therapy that improves pulmonary function and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in cystic fibrosis (CF) adults with at least one copy of the F508del CFTR mutation.

Psychological profile of individuals presenting with chronic cough [PDF]

, 2017
Chronic refractory cough (CRC) is a common problem in respiratory clinics. Adverse effects on quality of life are documented in the literature, but relatively little is known about the underlying psychological factors in this patient population. We aimed

Differential Immune Cell Infiltration in Eosinophilic and Non‐Eosinophilic CRS: Correlations With Clinical, Endoscopic, and Radiological Findings

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The pathogenesis of inflammation in eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) and non‐eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (NECRS) remains poorly understood. This study aimed to assess immune cell infiltration within the sinonasal microenvironment in these conditions.
