Continuous Respiratory Oscillometry in Pediatric Laparoscopic Surgery—The COMET Study
ABSTRACT Background Laparoscopic appendectomy is the accepted surgical approach for appendicitis in centers worldwide. Laparoscopic surgery requires the creation of a pneumoperitoneum to facilitate surgical access. Laparoscopic surgery affects the respiratory mechanics of patients under general anesthesia.

Abstract Background High‐intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate‐intensity continuous training (MICT) have been widely studied in individuals with chronic conditions. However, no studies have compared these two exercise modalities in COVID‐19 survivors. Objective To compare the feasibility, safety, adherence, and short‐term efficacy of HIIT and

ABSTRACT The design of a hexapod is complex and requires integration between kinematic models, control systems, and sensing. Existing literature has reviewed these sub‐systems in isolation. Since 2021, there has been no review of the field despite significant advancements in soft soil, lunar traversal, and artificial intelligence.

An Ergonomic Customizable Soft Robotic Glove Toward Personalized Hand Rehabilitation
Soft robotic gloves for hand rehabilitation are often limited by poor fit and uneven pressure on the fingers. Here, the authors report an ergonomic all‐fabric glove whose dual‐action actuators are tailored to individual finger geometry by CNC heat sealing, with symmetrical chambers that distribute interface pressure more evenly. Weighing only 90 g, the
