Best technique for upper lid eversion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aim: Lid eversion is an essential component of contact lens aftercare. Hence, this study determined the best method of lid eversion based on three criteria: comfort, speed of administration and the area of the palpebral conjunctiva exposed.

Miniaturized Magnetic Tip Design for Endoluminal Vine Robot Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetic tip mount is designed for a miniaturized 7 mm soft‐growing vine robot to enable wireless magnetic steering and onboard imaging, while preserving a 3 mm working channel. The internal–external ring magnets design balances magnetic attachment with low eversion pressure. Experiments demonstrate ±90° steering, 34 mm bending radius, and successful

Unilateral upper eyelid eversion and kink associated with epidemic keratoconjunctivitis

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2020
Purpose: Upper lid eversion in adults from non-cicatricial causes is rare. We report a case of upper eyelid eversion secondary to epidemic keratoconjunctivitis (EKC). Observations: A 37 year-old female presented with unilateral upper lid eversion.

Deciphering Anti‐Cancer Drug Efficacy Through Nanomechanical Vibrations in Living Gastric Cancer Organoids

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed an efficacy assessment platform that integrates patient‐derived gastric cancer organoids, atomic force microscopy (AFM)‐based nanomechanical vibration detection, deep learning analysis, and organoid mechanical modeling. It detects picomolar drug effects within 0.1 s signal, achieves 97% classification accuracy, and offers non ...
