Electromagnetic interference on artificial heart pacemaker [PDF]

2008 IEEE International RF and Microwave Conference, 2008
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) due to radio frequency (RF) is known to cause interference in electronics devices. Interference may cause devices such as pacemaker to malfunctions with potentially adverse consequences. Exposure of electromagnetic interference comes from digital cellular telephones that are commonly used nowadays.

Logic Circuits Featuring Organic Electrochemical Transistors: What is the Logic Behind OECTs in Logic?

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
For bioelectronic applications, organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs), with their mixed ionic and electronic conduction, will be invaluable for interfacing with living systems. This review examines the latest research, which has shifted towards integrating OECTs in logic circuits capable of transducing and processing bio‐signals.

Repurposing of Chemokine Antagonists for Combined Phase‐Resolved Spinal Cord Injury Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) in mammals is accompanied by a massive cytokine storm in cerebrospinal fluid, mainly driven by CXCL1, IL‐6, and CCL2‐5. Sub‐acute phase is mostly associated with IL‐2, IL‐7, CCL22, and CX3CL1, whereas TNFα and IL17α permanently persists in CNS even weeks following SCI.

Resilience to Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Mitigates Membrane Hyperexcitability Underlying Late Disease Onset in a Murine Model of SCA6

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective An enduring puzzle in many inherited neurological disorders is the late onset of symptoms despite expression of function‐impairing mutant protein early in life. We examined the basis for onset of impairment in spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6), a canonical late‐onset neurodegenerative ataxia which results from a polyglutamine expansion in ...
