New and Emerging Artificial Urinary Sphincters for Male Stress Urinary Incontinence: From Gold Standard to Next Generation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction For more than four decades, the AMS‐800 has remained the clinical benchmark device for the treatment of male stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Although it remains the gold standard for male SUI, the AMS‐800 has continued to have limitations such as suboptimal post‐operative continence rates, fixed hydraulic pressure, need for ...

Bio‐Compatible Flexible Memristive Devices Enabled by BNNT/MWCNT–ZnO Quantum Dot Hybrid Percolation Networks

Small, EarlyView.
BNNT rods incorporated into MWCNT–ZnO quantum dot networks regulate charge transport and suppress leakage in flexible, transparent resistive memory devices. The resulting hybrid architecture preserves nonvolatile switching under static bending and after low‐temperature exposure and subcutaneous implantation.

Temporary Right Ventricular Mechanical Circulatory Support Devices in Acute Right Ventricular Failure and Cardiogenic Shock: A Cross‐Device Systematic Review and Single‐Arm Meta‐Analysis

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Among selected patients receiving temporary right ventricular support, pooled survival to discharge was 60.4%, and separately pooled successful weaning was 60.6%. These descriptive estimates from 106 heterogeneous observational studies, predominantly involving concurrent left‐sided or biventricular support, cannot establish treatment benefit or ...

Post‐Trial Responsibilities for Participants Implanted With Neurosurgical Devices: A Qualitative Study

Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The issue of post‐trial responsibility is about what is owed to research participants after a clinical trial ends, who is responsible, and how long this responsibility must endure. Despite two decades of international guidance on this issue, research involving novel high‐risk interventions—such as implantable neurotechnologies—raises ...
