In Vivo Hip Joint Loading during Post-Operative Physiotherapeutic Exercises
PLoS ONE, 2013 Introduction After hip surgery, it is the orthopedist’s decision to allow full weight bearing to prevent complications or to prescribe partial weight bearing for bone ingrowth or fracture consolidation.

Treecreeper Drone: Adaptive Mechanism for Passive Tree Trunk Perching
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Taking inspiration from treecreepers, a passively triggered aerial robot that can reliably perch on vertical tree trunks is presented. The friction‐based approach combines a microspine array with a tail‐like support, and then validates via dynamic analyses and flight experiments, ensuring stable performance across trunk diameters and bark textures ...

DuckyDog: An Erect Amphibious Robot with Variable‐Stiffness Legs and Passive Fins
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.DuckyDog, a quadruped amphibious robot using erect posture, is proposed with dog‐inspired tendon‐driven compliant legs for walking and paddling, a duck‐inspired body for buoyancy, and passive fins to increase propulsion. It achieves maximum speeds of 0.4 body lengths per second on land and 0.3 on water, demonstrating the ability to navigate in complex ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a tensegrity joint with pneumatic artificial muscles integrated directly into its tensile network. Inspired by tensegrity spine structures, the joint's topology is developed and further optimized through an evolutionary algorithm, taking into account fabrication constraints and target applications.

Perspectives on the Current and Future State of Artificial Intelligence in Medical Genetics
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming numerous aspects of daily life, including clinical practice and biomedical research. In light of this rapid transformation, and in the context of medical genetics, we assembled a group of leaders in the field to respond to the question about how AI is affecting, and especially how AI will ...

Ocular Findings as the Most Striking Manifestation of a SMAD3 Variant
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Loeys‐Dietz syndrome (LDS) is a heritable connective tissue disorder with variable expressivity. It is a multisystemic condition mainly characterized by a propensity for arterial aneurysms and dissections, skeletal manifestations, hypertelorism, bifid uvula, craniosynostosis, and cutaneous features.

Survivorship of Individuals With Double Heterozygosity for Achondroplasia and Type 2 Collagenopathy
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Historically, double heterozygosity, or a diagnosis of two separate, dominant genetic conditions, was often thought to be lethal in individuals with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias. In previously published studies of individuals with dual dysplasia diagnoses of achondroplasia and type 2 collagenopathy, infants died of respiratory ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Natural History Studies can help inform clinician and caregiver expectations, form the basis of management guidelines, and provide a comparator for therapeutic intervention. In rare conditions, where collection of prospective longitudinal data is untimely and impractical, quasi‐natural history data—from multiple individuals of different ages ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Keratosis–ichthyosis–deafness (KID) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant ectodermal disease caused by mutations in the GJB2 gene, which encodes the gap junction protein Connexin 26 (Cx26) located on Chr. 13q12.11. This study presents the first mortality analysis associated with KID syndrome, focusing on a case report of a Latin American ...
