Multi‐Module Micro/Nanorobots for Biomedical and Environmental Remediation Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Multi‐module microrobots (MNRs) have overcome the limitations of single‐module systems by integrating components such as propeller, actuator, manipulator, and imaging modalities. They show promise in biomedical applications, such as targeted drug delivery and tissue repair, as well as in environmental remediation, including pollutant removal.

Establishment of rat model for aspiration pneumonia and potential mechanisms

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Aspiration pneumonia was induced in Sprague Dawley rats by intratracheal instillation of hydrochloric acid (HCl, 1.5 μL/g.wt, pH = 1) followed by lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 20 μg/g.wt) after 1 h. The model reproduced hallmark features of acute lung injury, including histological lung damage, microvascular dysfunction, inflammation, hypoxemia, and ...

Segmentation of cortical bone, trabecular bone, and medullary pores from micro‐CT images using 2D and 3D deep learning models

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) enables rapid imaging of large‐scale studies of bone, but those datasets typically require manual segmentation, which is time‐consuming and prone to error. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) offer an automated solution, achieving superior performance on image data.

Expert Perspective: How, When, and Why to Potentially Stop Antiresorptive Drugs in Osteoporosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease, and antiresorptive treatments are often continued for many years. Despite their established efficacy in reducing fracture risk, the most commonly used antiresorptive treatments, bisphosphonates and denosumab, have short‐ and long‐term risks that, coupled with their benefits and other unique characteristics, influence ...

Sacrificial strategy towards the formation of vascular‐like networks in volumetric tissue constructs

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This mini‐review highlights the latest progress in the sacrificial template‐enabled creation of patent vascular‐like networks, which can be incorporated into volumetric tissue constructs. Such microchannel networks can provide an immediate supply of nutrition and O2 to those cells residing next to the channels.
