An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Engineering stimuli‐responsive shape‐morphing through high‐resolution 4D printing
This review summarizes recent progress in high‐resolution 4D printing with smart materials and micro/nanoscale techniques. It covers actuation strategies, key applications, and future challenges for scalable, precise shape‐morphing systems. Abstract 4D printing extends conventional additive manufacturing (AM) by enabling dynamic shape‐morphing ...

Transcatheter vs surgical aortic valve replacement for bicuspid aortic valve disease
Abstract Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an acceptable and often preferred alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for patients with severe aortic stenosis. However, the mid‐ and long‐term efficacy of TAVR in patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) remains unclear.

Physiological Control of Realheart Total Artificial Heart
This study evaluates the Realheart Total Artificial Heart's preload‐based physiological controller, which dynamically adjusts heart rate and stroke volume to mimic the heart's natural responses during sleep, rest, and exercise using a hybrid mock circulation loop of the cardiovascular system.
