A Robotic Urinary Bladder Enabling Volume Monitoring and Assisted Micturition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An implantable robotic bladder is presented that can store urine in an origami‐designed enclosure. An inductance sensing principle can monitor and transfer the urine volume in real‐time. It can actively expand based on the amount of urine collected from kidneys and apply on‐demand mechanical compression to assist urination.

Loss of METTL3 m6A methyltransferase results in short‐term progression and poor treatment outcome of bladder cancer patients

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Bladder cancer exhibits a highly heterogeneous molecular landscape and treatment response. The dysregulation of RNA modifications such as m6A has been involved in cancer initiation and progression. This study comprehensively analyzed the expression of the main catalytic component of the m6A methylation machinery in bladder tumors across one
