Effects of adjustable‐volume transfemoral prosthetic sockets on balance and falls: A randomized clinical trial

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Adjustable‐volume prosthetic sockets have been developed to allow users to accommodate volume fluctuations throughout the day. Improvement in socket fit is thought to enhance the connection between the user's residual limb and prosthesis and may therefore improve postural control and balance.

Endocytosis‐independent cytosolic entry of messenger RNA via fluorous bilayer zippering attenuating Toll‐like receptor signaling and enables ischemic tissue salvage

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
The present study establishes a paradigm shift in synthetic mRNA delivery through the convergence of three orthogonal chemistries—perfluoro‐acylation, bio‐orthogonal click cross‐linking, and disulfide reduction—within a single, modular polymer architecture. Abstract A fundamental constraint of conventional messenger RNA (mRNA) delivery systems is their

Survey of the health and welfare of imported dogs presenting to UK veterinary surgeons

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Since changes to legislation in 2012, numbers of dogs imported into the UK, especially rescues, have increased substantially. We aimed to explore the health and behaviour issues among imported dogs presented to UK veterinary surgeons. Methods An online survey was completed by 413 veterinary surgeons practising in the UK in 2023. The
