Continuous monitoring of brain dynamics with functional near infrared spectroscopy as a tool for neuroergonomic research: Empirical examples and a technological development

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a noninvasive, safe and portable optical neuroimaging method that can be used to assess brain dynamics during skill acquisition and performance of complex work and everyday tasks. In this paper we describe

KLF5 Downregulation Links Impaired BNIP3‐Mediated Mitophagy to Inflammatory Valve Remodeling in Calcific Aortic Valve Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In human CAVD, KLF5 is reduced in VIC‐rich regions and remodeling/stress‐associated VIC states. In VICs, KLF5 sustains BNIP3 promoter activity and BNIP3‐mediated mitophagy, thereby limiting cytosolic mtDNA accumulation. KLF5 loss weakens mitochondrial quality control and enhances mtDNA‐sensitive STING/NF‐κB/NLRP3 inflammatory signaling under osteogenic

A Systematic Comparison of Motion Artifact Correction Techniques for Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2012
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is susceptible to signal artifacts caused by relative motion between NIRS optical fibers and the scalp. These artifacts can be very damaging to the utility of functional NIRS, particularly in challenging subject groups ...

Increased Disarray of Extracellular Matrix Collagen‐I Fiber Network and Compromised Biomechanics in Aortae From Marfan‐Syndrome Mice Assessed Through Combined Opto‐Biomechatronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined structure‐function assessment in aortic rings from Marfan mice using MechaMorph Opto‐Biomechatronics technology relates increased elasticity (stiffness) and dynamic viscosity and less ordered extracellular matrix 3D‐structure (collagen) as potential causes for impaired Windkessel function and compromised haemodynamics in Marfan's syndrome ...

Restoring Endothelial Mitochondrial Homeostasis With a Bioactive Nanoshield Promotes Vascular Regeneration on Cardiovascular Implants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioactive poly(citrate‐polyglycol‐procyanidin) (PCGP) nanoshield is developed for cardiovascular implants to restore endothelial mitochondrial homeostasis following vascular injury. By preserving mitochondrial integrity, re‐establishing metabolic balance, and activating PI3K/Akt/eNOS‐NO signaling, the PCGP interface promotes functional endothelial ...

Proteogenomic Profiling of Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Identifies Sex‐Differential Proteins and Candidate Therapeutic Targets

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated proteogenomic analysis of 44,137 predominantly European‐ancestry UK Biobank participants aged 40–69 years identifies 12 robust proteins associated with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension. These proteins define a high‐mortality molecular endotype, support early detection and mortality prediction, reveal sex‐differential proteomic ...

ROS‐Responsive Nanoparticle Delivery of Dexmedetomidine Protects the Gut Vascular Barrier After Intestinal Ischemia/Reperfusion via the HDAC‐H3K27ac‐TCF4 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A low dose of dexmedetomidine, delivered by ROS‐responsive nanoparticles, preferentially accumulates in the ischemic intestine and restores gut vascular barrier integrity after ischemia/reperfusion injury. This nanoparticle‐based strategy prevents bacterial translocation and liver damage without cardiorespiratory side effects, working through HDAC ...

Magnetically Guided Macrophage Immunobots Coordinate Iron‐Metabolic Cascades and Immunogenic Ferroptosis for Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetically guided macrophage immunobots integrate active tumor targeting with immunometabolic therapy. After systemic administration, magnetic actuation enhances immunobot retention and tumor penetration, while LPS‐functionalized FePt microrollers sustain M1‐like polarization through inflammatory and iron‐amplified oxidative signaling and trigger ...

Printing‐Assisted Integration of Thermal, Fluidic and Electrical Components in Implants for Focal Brain Cooling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Extrusion‐based 3D printing of silicones and discrete electronic components are combined to create cortical implants for rodents that integrate thermal neuromodulation and electrical recording. Linked to an autonomous auxiliary driver unit, the system enables rapid, stable and localized hypothermia alongside ECoG recording.

Geometry‐Encoded Soft Strain Sensing via Liquid‐Metal Transmission Lines

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a liquid‐metal transmission‐line strain sensor that achieves intrinsic decoupling by encoding axial elongation into propagation delay. The time‐domain readout remains stable under complex off‐axis. This enables reliable, repeatable, real‐time elongation measurement in dynamic, multiaxial loading environments for wearable electronics,
