Foreign labor, peer‐networking and agricultural efficiency in the Italian dairy sector

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract While the presence of immigrants in the agricultural sector is widely acknowledged, the empirical evidence on its economic consequences is lacking, especially from a microeconomic perspective. Using the Farm Accountancy Data Network panel data for Italian dairy farms in the period 2008–2018, the present study investigates the relationship ...

A Physics Constrained Machine Learning Pipeline for Young's Modulus Prediction in Multimaterial Hyperelastic Cylinders Guided by Contact Mechanics

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A physics‐guided machine learning framework estimates Young's modulus in multilayered multimaterial hyperelastic cylinders using contact mechanics. A semiempirical stiffness law is embedded into a custom neural network, ensuring physically consistent predictions. Validation against experimental and numerical data on C.

Microrobotic Catheterization of the Ophthalmic Artery for Targeted Treatment of Retinoblastoma

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A microrobotic platform is presented that allows teleoperated and autonomous navigation of flow‐driven magnetic microcatheters, MagFlow, into the ophthalmic artery for superselective intra‐arterial infusion of chemotherapy to treat retinoblastoma. Extensive benchtop validations with patient‐derived biomimetic phantoms under optical and fluoroscopic ...

Pre‐Curved Everting Robots With Embedded Steering Intelligence Fabricated by CO2 Laser Welding

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Design and experimental demonstration of a laser welded growing robot for anatomically guided navigation. The robot follows an aortic arch phantom entering the branchiocephalic branch through steering by design. The figure shows the physical phantom setup, CAD defined weld geometry and full robot eversion.

Lateral Extra‐articular Tenodesis Using Knotless All‐Suture Anchor Fixation With Suture Tape: A Modified Technique for Augmenting Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Lateral extra‐articular tenodesis has emerged as a valuable adjunct to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction for mitigating residual rotational instability. We describe a modified lateral extra‐articular tenodesis technique utilizing an all‐suture knotless anchor with suture tape, which provides strong, flexible fixation with reduced soft ...

Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Bone‐Patellar Tendon‐Bone Autograft and Anatomical Lateral Collateral Ligament and Proximal Tibiofibular Joint Reconstruction Using Semitendinosus Allograft

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Multiligamentous knee injuries involving anterior cruciate ligament rupture and lateral‐sided instability, including proximal tibiofibular joint instability and lateral collateral ligament deficiency, present unique challenges in restoring knee stability.

Technique for Lateral Opening Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy Using Patient‐Specific Instrumentation for Genu Valgum and Patellar Instability

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent lateral patellar instability poses a technical challenge to orthopaedic surgeons. Isolated soft‐tissue procedures through medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction or lateral release show unacceptably high failure rates. Lateral opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy addresses underlying bony malalignment and reinforces the soft ...

Combined Lateral Patellofemoral Ligament and Lateral Patellotibial Ligament Reconstruction for Medial Patellar Instability

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Medial patellar instability is an uncommon but debilitating condition that may arise following excessive lateral retinacular release. The lateral patellofemoral ligament and lateral patellotibial ligament function as key static stabilizers that resist medial patellar translation throughout knee flexion.

Allograft Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Patellar Suture Anchors and Stepwise Medial Imbrication

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Patellar instability commonly affects adolescents and young athletes and is associated with injury to the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). MPFL reconstruction is a well‐established treatment for recurrent instability; however, complications related to graft tensioning, fixation, and incomplete restoration of medial soft‐tissue restraints
