Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 11, Page 1580-1592, November 2026.Abstract Aim To assess the clinical feasibility of lower‐limb pediatric exoskeleton‐assisted (Trexo Plus) physiotherapy for minimally ambulatory children at an outpatient center and a primary school. Secondary aims were to assess associated functional and goal‐based outcomes before and after Trexo‐based physiotherapy.

Dissecting the Metabolic Costs of Uphill and Downhill Walking
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 11, November 2026.ABSTRACT Work‐ and collision‐based models of locomotion relate the body's mechanical work requirements to metabolic energy expenditure at a system level, but do not capture the underlying force and work demands of muscle that drive energy use. Energy is liberated as heat to activate muscle and maintain force production (“force‐related costs”) and as ...

Sustainable and Multifunctional Natural Macromolecular Polymers for Aqueous Zn Metal Batteries
Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 57, 13 October 2026.We comprehensively review the structure‐function relationships and regulatory mechanism of natural macromolecular polymers in stabilizing zinc anodes at the microscopic and mesoscopic scales. The interactions among polymer structures, optimization strategies, and regulatory mechanisms are discussed systematically summarizing recent related research ...
