Toward Wireless Implantable Robotic Systems Driven by Magnetic Field for Personalized Therapy

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic materials are playing an increasingly vital role in enabling sensing and actuation at small scales. This perspective highlights recent advances in magnetic materials and magnetically actuated devices for wireless sensing, actuation, and energy harvesting toward implantable robotic systems for closed‐loop therapy.

Ultrasound-guided caudal epidural injection to treat symptoms of lumbar spinal stenosis: a retrospective study

European Journal of Translational Myology
Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) occurs when bony, ligamentous, and synovial elements of the lower axial spine degenerate and overgrow, compressing neural and vascular elements in the spinal canal.

The Absence of the Leukotriene B Receptor BLT1 Attenuates Peripheral Inflammation and Spinal Nociceptive Processing Following Intraplantar Formalin Injury

Molecular Pain, 2015
Background Leukotriene B 4 (LTB 4 ) is a potent lipid mediator of inflammation, and its biological effects are mediated primarily through the high affinity LTB 4 receptor BLT1.

Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

Inadvertent Dural Puncture in Interventional Pain Management (Caudal Epidural Block)

Siriraj Medical Journal, 2017
Caudal epidural steroid injection (CESI) is one of the most common interventions in management of lumbar radicular pain of the patients who fail to respond to conservative treatment. Complications related to caudal epidural injections are rare. However,

GPR124 Alleviates Blood–Brain Barrier Disruption by Enhancing Microvascular Endothelial Function after Traumatic Brain Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study reveals the protective role of GPR124 in maintaining BBB integrity and promoting neurological recovery following TBI. It makes a significant contribution by uncovering a novel molecular interaction between GPR124 and FGFBP1 and linking this to activation of the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway in vascular repair mechanisms.

Piezo2 Mediates a Vicious Cycle of “Mechanical Homeostasis Imbalance—Inflammation” in Sensory Nerves and the Cartilage Endplate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In a lumbar spine instability model, dorsal root ganglion cells mediate the perception of relevant mechanical stresses through Piezo2 and subsequently release CGRP. CGRP activates the NF‐κB signaling pathway in cartilage endplate cells through the receptor RAMP1.
