Active Learning‐Accelerated Discovery of Fibrous Hydrogels with Tissue‐Mimetic Viscoelasticity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Active learning accelerates the design of fibrous hydrogels that mimic the viscoelasticity of native tissues. By integrating multi‐objective optimization and closed‐loop experimentation, this approach efficiently identifies optimal formulations from thousands of possibilities and decouples elasticity and viscosity. The resulting hydrogels offer tunable

Nipple Reconstruction with Rolled Dermal Graft Support

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2014
Background Loss of nipple projection is a common problem following nipple reconstruction. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that the use of a tightly rolled dermal graft is effective in the long-term maintenance of nipple projection ...

Biomechanical Properties of Dermis

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1982
Data obtained from a wide variety of test methods both in vitro and in vivo and histological studies of stressed skin have led to an understanding of the mechanical properties of the dermis and the relation of these properties to the structure of the collagen and elastin fiber networks of the dermis.

Co‐Electrospinning Extracellular Matrix with Polycaprolactone Enables a Modular Approach to Balance Bioactivity and Mechanics of a Multifunctional Bone Wrap

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The incorporation of nondigested ECM and synthetic polymers into a co‐electrospinning system enables the decoupling of bioactivity and mechanical properties within a single wrap. This technique is used to develop a multifunctional bone wrap that achieves augmented membrane durability, sustained infection control, and enhanced vascularity for use in ...

Shagreen Patch in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex at High-Frequency Ultrasound

Diagnostics
We present a case of a 19-year-old female patient with tuberous sclerosis complex and a shagreen patch on her left dorsal region. Decreased echogenicity and increased thickness of the dermis were shown by high-frequency ultrasound.

Fluid Forces Control Structural Remodeling of Blind‐Ended Lymphatic Microvessels

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using innovative microfluidic biofabrication with fluid mechanical insights, we recapitulated the blind‐ended microanatomy and physiological drainage properties of capillary lymphatics. Our results reveal the interrelationship between intra‐ and extraluminal regions of lymphatic vessels due to flow‐induced sprouting and morphological changes that ...

Multiple anti-predator mechanisms in the red-spotted Argentina Frog (Amphibia: Hylidae) [PDF]

, 2017
Anurans employ a wide variety of anti-predator mechanisms to defend themselves. In casque-headed hylids, defence is thought to be a complex combination of several anti-predator mechanisms. However, the defence traits of only a few species are known; some
