At Home Detection of Ovarian Health Biomarker in Menstruation Blood

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A lateral flow assay enables the detection of anti‐Müllerian hormone directly in unprocessed menstrual blood using silica‐gold nanoshells and smartphone‐assisted machine learning analysis. The platform supports decentralized, user‐operated testing in wearable and dipstick formats, highlighting the potential of menstrual blood as a non‐invasive matrix ...

Vortices produced by swirl-mixing grids in nuclear fuel assembly: a wind-tunnel experiment

Flow
Longitudinal vortices produced by a swirl-mixing grid are experimentally explored in an upscaled model of nuclear fuel assembly. The flow is mapped using particle image velocimetry in several planes downstream of the grid.

Improving the Robustness of Visual Teach‐and‐Repeat Navigation Using Drift Error Correction and Event‐Based Vision for Low‐Light Environments

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Visual teach‐and‐repeat (VTR) navigation allows robots to learn and follow routes without building a full metric map. We show that navigation accuracy for VTR can be improved by integrating a topological map with error‐drift correction based on stereo vision.

Optimization of Magnetic Milli‐Spinner for Robotic Endovascular Intervention

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents the design optimization of a multifunctional magnetic milli‐spinner for high‐speed propulsion and efficient clot debulking. The optimized design achieves an ultrafast swimming velocity of 55 cm/s (≈175 body lengths/s) in saline water, enabling stable upstream swimming against strong physiological flows and establishing magnetic milli‐

Perivascular Matrix Densification Dysregulates Angiogenesis and Activates Pro‐Inflammatory Endothelial Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Perivascular matrix densification promotes the emergence of aberrant endothelial tip cells (ATECs) that invade and persist within fibrotic microenvironments. Using in vivo lineage tracing and a human microvessel model, this study shows that fibrous matrix cues destabilize VE‐cadherin–mediated junctions to gate TGF‐β signaling, inducing a pro ...

Study on Longitudinal Collision Risk of Closely Spaced Parallel Runways Paired Approach

Promet (Zagreb)
This study asserts that paired aircraft can withstand specific wake turbulence levels and explores the longitudinal collision risk in closely spaced parallel runway approaches. The goal is to enhance the safety margin of the paired approach and allow for

Process of Formation of a Mushroom-type Longitudinal Vortex

Journal of the Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences, 1977
The formation of mushroom-type longitudinal vortices with streamwise axces is noticed in the boundary layer both along flat walls and along curved ones of a two-dimensional convergent nozzle. The vortex formed on the flat wall is examined experimentally. Air flow in the boundary layer is visualized by using evaporated-gasoil smoke, which is supplied to

Genome‐Wide CRISPR Screen Identifies a microRNA Orchestrating Pleiotropic Resistance to Targeted Therapy and T Cell Immunity in Melanoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A genome‐wide microRNA CRISPR screen identifies miR‐18a as a master regulator of cross‐resistance in melanoma. Loss of miR‐18a activates the AJUBA–YAP/Hippo axis to confer BRAFi resistance and enhances THBS1–CD47 interaction to impair CD8+ T cell immunity. hnRNP A1 is identified as an upstream regulator of miR‐18a processing.
