Advancing tele‐physiology: A chest patch solution for continuous, non‐invasive remote monitoring in a hypoxic environment

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 7, Page 3280-3293, 1 July 2026.
Abstract Skin‐mounted sensors are thin, flexible and lightweight electronic devices that enable monitoring of multiple physiological parameters. The aim of this study was to provide pilot evidence for possible utilization of a sensorized patch for capturing the bodily response to hypoxia. The subsequent phases of the study comprised a case report and a

Neonatal Wet Gangrene With Early Auto‐Amputation in a Resource‐Limited Setting With Incomplete Etiologic Workup: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Neonatal limb gangrene with auto‐amputation is rare and often idiopathic. Early recognition, prompt referral, and thorough etiologic workup—despite resource limitations—are critical. Wet gangrene requires broad‐spectrum antibiotics, wound care, and timely surgical amputation to preserve growth plates and allow future prosthesis fitting.

Analysis of the Phenotype and Gene Mutations of Two Families With Combined Mutations of Anticoagulant Protein Genes

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
In these two pedigrees, we identified distinct mutations in the AT and PC genes. Individuals harboring both mutations exhibited a significantly higher incidence of venous thrombosis. ABSTRACT Background AT and PC are key components of the anticoagulant system. Mutations in their encoding genes, SERPINC1 and PROC, can lead to insufficient protein levels
