Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Birth asphyxia and its association with grand multiparity and referral among hospital births: A prospective cross‐sectional study in Benin, Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica
Introduction Birth asphyxia is a leading cause of neonatal mortality in sub‐Saharan Africa. The relationship to grand multiparity (GM), a controversial pregnancy risk factor, remains largely unexplored, especially in the context of large multinational ...

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 ...

Nanocellulose Alleviates Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy via Gut Microbiota‐Mediated Bile Acid Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanocellulose, derived from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) through sulfuric acid hydrolysis or mechanical grinding to produce CNC or CNF, was tested in a rat ICP model. Particularly, CNF improved gut microbiota composition, reduced secondary bile acid metabolism, and restored bile acid homeostasis through modulation of the gut–liver axis.

Mediators affecting the higher risk of stillbirth among foreign‐born women in Sweden: A nationwide cohort study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica
Introduction In Sweden, a higher incidence of stillbirth has been observed among women originating from sub‐Saharan Africa and the Middle East. In this nationwide cohort of more than 2 million births, we assessed the risk factors for stillbirth among ...

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...

Fetal rotation examined with ultrasound in a sub‐Saharan population: A longitudinal cohort study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica
Introduction Occiput posterior (OP) position rates at birth are 5%–8% in studies mainly comprising white European women. The anthropoid pelvis is common in black African women. This pelvic shape has a narrow anterior segment and an ample room posteriorly.
