Human‐Scale Rotating Magnetic Field Delivery With Permanent Magnets Under Anatomic and Robotic Constraints

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Rotating magnetic fields (RMFs) are widely used for microrobot propulsion and control. We show that RMF generation with permanent magnets is mechanically feasible for many limb and intracranial applications but becomes constrained for thoracic targets.

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Long‐Term Outcomes After Stoma Creation in Crohn's Disease: A Retrospective Cohort Study of 422 Patients

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Stoma creation is often required in Crohn's disease (CD), most commonly because of progressive anorectal disease. As stoma closure strongly influences long‐term quality of life and surgical decision‐making, this study evaluated the indications and long‐term outcomes of stoma creation in patients with CD.

Lymphocyte‐C‐Reactive Protein Ratio as Promising New Marker for Predicting Surgical Site Infection in Children With Ulcerative Colitis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surgical site infection (SSI) is a major complication after ileal pouch–anal anastomosis (IPAA) in pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC), significantly impairing quality of life. The lymphocyte‐to–C‐reactive protein ratio (LCR), a composite marker of systemic inflammation and immune/nutritional status, has emerged as a potential ...

Single‐Incision Laparoscopy‐First Strategy in Crohn's Disease: Risk Factors for Conversion and Surgical Outcomes

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this retrospective study of 289 patients with Crohn's disease undergoing a single‐incision laparoscopy‐first (SILS‐first) strategy, conversion to open surgery was required in only 11.8% of cases. Fistula formation, colon resection, and smoking history were identified as independent risk factors for conversion, while postoperative complications and ...
