Toward Optogenetic Hearing Restoration
Annual Review of NeuroscienceThe cochlear implant (CI) is considered the most successful neuroprosthesis as it enables speech comprehension in the majority of the million otherwise deaf patients. In hearing by electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve, the broad spread of current from each electrode acts as a bottleneck that limits the transfer of sound frequency information ...

Sudden Bilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss Secondary to Cerebral Venous Thrombosis [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2018 Introduction: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is an important otological emergency. Up to 90% of the cases are idiopathic. Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an extremely rare identifiable cause as it only represents 0.5% of all strokes ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Poststroke fatigue (PSF) and frailty share substantial overlap in their manifestations, yet previous research has yielded conflicting results due to the use of heterogeneous frailty assessment tools. Objective To evaluate the independent impact of frailty on PSF using a unified measurement system (Tilburg Frailty Indicator, TFI ...

Bioinspired Materials, Designs, and Manufacturing Strategies for Advanced Impact‐Resistant Helmets
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This review explores how bioinspired materials, structures, and manufacturing strategies transform helmet design to achieve enhanced impact resistance. Drawing inspiration from nacre, porcupine quills, beetle exoskeletons, and skull architectures, it highlights advances in auxetic lattices, nanocomposites, and functionally graded foams.

Intrinsically Soft Printed Electronics for Digitally Augmented Human Sensing and Vision
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work introduces a class of highly functional, multilayer flexible and stretchable circuits capable of digitally augmenting human sensing and vision. Studies in multi‐material soft composite inks yielded a formulation that enables overpass printing, self‐healing, and high‐resolution functionality.
