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.

Intestinal microbiota in human health and disease: the impact of probiotics [PDF]

, 2011
The complex communities of microorganisms that colonise the human gastrointestinal tract play an important role in human health. The development of culture-independent molecular techniques has provided new insights in the composition and diversity of the

The food contaminant deoxynivalenol, decreases intestinal barrier permeability and reduces claudin expression [PDF]

, 2009
The gastrointestinal tract represents the first barrier against food contaminants as well as the first target for these toxicants. Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a mycotoxin that commonly contaminates cereals and causes various toxicological effects.

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,

Human intestinal spirochetes are distinct from Serpulina hyodysenteriae [PDF]

, 1993
Twenty-nine intestinal spirochetes isolated from Australian aboriginal children and six strains from Italian adults (HRM1, -2, -4, -5, -7, and -14) were genetically examined at 15 enzyme loci by using multilocus enzyme electrophoresis.

Artificial Intelligence–Based Surgical Phase Analysis Enables Objective Assessment of Surgeon Skill in Robotic Distal Gastrectomy: A Multicenter Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Artificial intelligence (AI)–based surgical video analysis can automate time‐consuming manual assessments and enable objective characterization of surgical workflows. We aimed to construct a large, multicenter, fully annotated dataset of robotic distal gastrectomy (RDG) videos and evaluate the feasibility and performance of an AI model for

Increasing weaning age of piglets from 4 to 7 weeks reduces stress, increases post-weaning feed intake but does not improve intestinal functionality [PDF]

, 2010
This study tested the hypothesis that late weaning and the availability of creep feed during the suckling period compared with early weaning, improves feed intake, decreases stress and improves the integrity of the intestinal tract.
