Shape Memory Microneedle to Prevent Risks of Reproductive Hormone Therapy by Switching Sustained to Burst Release Under a Single Transdermal Insertion

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A shape‐memory microneedle system enables reproductive hormone therapy through a single transdermal insertion. The X‐shaped device sustains follicle‐stimulating hormone release for three days, and mild heating restores the O shape to trigger burst human chorionic gonadotropin release.

Time-dependent alterations in brain metabolites and gut microbiota following whole-brain FLASH versus conventional radiotherapy in mice

Brain Research Bulletin
Purpose: This study compared the time-dependent changes in brain metabolites and gut microbiota at early and late post-irradiation stages in mice receiving conventional radiotherapy (CONV-RT) or ultra-high dose-rate FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT). Methods:

Microscopic Origin of Temperature‐Dependent Anisotropic Heat Transport in Ultrawide‐Bandgap Rutile GeO2

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Rutile GeO2${\rm GeO}_{2}$ exhibits orientation‐dependent heat transport with temperature‐dependent anisotropy, showing higher cross‐plane thermal conductivity along [001] than along the equivalent in‐plane [100] and [010] directions. Temperature‐dependent TDTR measurements and first‐principles phonon calculations identify the microscopic phonon ...

Mechanical and Electrical Phenotype of hiPSC‐Cardiomyocytes on Fibronectin‐Based Hydrogels

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce fibronectin‐based PEG hydrogels with controlled rigidity to enable the culture of iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes. These substrates offer an alternative to the current culture of these cells on fibronectin‐coated glass, providing enhanced structural and functional behavior. The system provides a more physiologically relevant platform to assess

A safety study of ultra‐high dose rate FLASH radiotherapy in the treatment of superficial skin tumors: study protocol of a phase I trial (ChiCTR2400080935)

Precision Radiation Oncology
Objective Ultra‐high dose rate FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH‐RT) is emerging as a novel technique to improve the normal tissue tolerance by delivering ultra‐high dose rate radiation several orders of magnitude higher than convention radiotherapy. It has been
