Effect Modification of Cigarette Smoking on the Relationship Between Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, Other Mental Health Conditions, and Rheumatoid Arthritis Risk: A Large Case‐Control Study in US Veterans

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined associations of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health disorders (OMH) with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), accounting for effects of smoking. Methods We conducted a matched case‐control study, identifying incident RA cases and controls using national Veterans Health Administration data (2006–2019).

A Novel Approach to Estimate the Transition Temperature via Dynamic Nanoindentation

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A new dynamic nanoindentation‐based method was developed that uses the stiffness ratio as an indicator of the elastic–plastic deformation contributions at different temperatures. The approach successfully identified transition temperatures in ferritic steel and distinguished them from continuously ductile austenitic steel.

Materials‐Driven Additive Manufacturing for Electrical Machines: Qualification‐Oriented Design Beyond Geometric Freedom

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This perspective reframes additive manufacturing for electrical machines as a qualification‐limited materials and architecture design problem. It links process–structure–property–performance relationships to magnetic, conducting, dielectric, and thermal property windows, highlighting where AM can enable segmented magnetic circuits, permanent magnet ...

3D‐Printed Titanium Gyroid Scaffold Structure Integrated With Tough Hybrid Materials for Cartilage Replacement

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes a potential device design for joint cartilage replacement. Silica‐polytetrahydrofuran (SiO2‐PolyTHF) hybrids with customizable mechanical properties were developed to mimic the characteristics of a natural meniscus. These were synthesized through a two‐pot sol–gel hybrid process.
