Mechanically Robust, Self‐Healable, and Cryotolerant GelMA Hydrogel for Wearable Tactile Sensors with Enhanced Durability, Lifetime, and Environmental Stability

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A mechanically robust, self‐healable, moisturizing, cryotolerant and adhesive GelMA hydrogel is developed by incorporating polyvinyl alcohol, acrylic acid, sodium tetraborate, and glycerol into GelMA matrix via a photoinitiated polymerization process. The hydrogel‐derived omni‐healable ionotronic pressure sensor can sensitively and consistently monitor

A General High‐Throughput Mucus Microrheology Platform for Quantitative and Scalable Mucus Phenotyping

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput Differential Dynamic Microscopy measures frequency‐resolved mechanical fingerprints from 3 to 10 μL$\umu{\rm L}$ mucus samples using only a few minutes of operator attention per sample. This automated analysis enables scalable mucus phenotyping for translational research by distinguishing mechanical heterogeneity among donors, disease ...

Bio‐Inspired Gradient Heterogeneous Architectures for Ultrasensitive and Robust Strain Sensors via Programmable Crack Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the insect campaniform sensillum, a heterogeneous bilayer strain sensor is developed based on a unique impedance mismatch and three‐dimensional structural dynamic percolation strategy. The sensor enables real‐time multi‐joint teleoperation of three joints and the gripper using a six‐degree‐of‐freedom robotic‐arm platform.

Breathe, Eat, Talk: Three Essential Ingredients to Quality-of-Life Outcomes in Movement Disorders. [PDF]

open access: yesMov Disord Clin Pract
Abstract Background Breathing, eating, and talking (BET) impairments are common yet frequently underrecognized features of movement disorders. Deficits in respiration, swallowing, voice, and speech may emerge early in the course of a disease, adversely affecting safety, participation, and quality of life.

Bronchoscope Tip Localization With Learned Airway Constraints and an Open Source Simulator

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
BronchoLoc addresses feature‐poor bronchoscopic imaging by combining monocular video with a preoperative CT graph to estimate 3D camera location. A local tracker identifies candidate branches, while a sequence‐aware global module refines the trajectory. Demonstrating sub‐centimeter accuracy across synthetic and phantom datasets, this framework advances

Splenic Tropism and Spleen‐Modulated Systemic Inflammation in Acute Plasmodium vivax Malaria

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In chronic Plasmodium vivax (Pv) infection, the spleen accounts for over 98% of total‐body parasite biomass. Whether splenic tropism also occurs in acute infection and how the spleen influences pathogenesis have not been systematically explored. In Papua, Indonesia, we compared clinical and hematology data in 24 spleen‐intact and 25 previously

Respiratory diseases and the impact of cough in Taiwan

open access: yesMedicine, 2016
Chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis (AR), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and rhinosinusitis are becoming increasingly prevalent in the Asia-Pacific region. The Asia-Pacific Burden of Respiratory Diseases (APBORD) study was a cross-sectional, observational study which examined the disease and economic burden of ...
