Chronic Expanding Hematoma Complicated by Life Threatening Hemoptysis and Respiratory Arrest—A Case Report

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports
Chronic expanding hematoma (CEH) is a rare, indolent entity mostly linked to prior tuberculosis, thoracic surgery or trauma, with gradual long‐term enlargement and potentially fatal complications.

Persistent ST-segment elevation mimicking ST-elevation myocardial infarction

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports
ST-segment elevation on electrocardiography is classically associated with acute myocardial infarction and often prompts urgent invasive evaluation. However, non-ischemic causes may complicate diagnostic decision-making, particularly in elderly patients ...

Hope amidst crisis: exploring perinatal mental health and family dynamics in out-of-home care through virtual assessments during the UK COVID-19 response

open access: yesFrontiers in Global Women's Health
Caring for a young child exposed to early trauma, along with caregiving stress and heightened by the impact of lockdowns as a result of the COVID-19 response, may compromise the development of the parent-child relationship. Understanding a foster carer's

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

Kin-informative recognition cues in ants

open access: yes, 2010
Although social groups are characterized by cooperation, they are also often the scene of conflict. In non-clonal systems, the reproductive interests of group members will differ and individuals may benefit by exploiting the cooperative efforts of other ...

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.

Kin

open access: yes, 2020
The project Kin explores our connection to other beings (sentient and otherwise) with the emphasis on the vibrance and agency of all matter. The objective of the project is to expand our perception of self by studying our entangled being-in-the-world using the poetic and artistic to collaborate with and expand on the scientific methods of ...

From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

Facial expressions influence kin recognition accuracy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Kinship informs the allocation of pro-social and sexual behaviour. In addition to the ability to detect kin who are directly related to the observer, humans are also able to detect relatedness among others who are not related to themselves based on ...
