Strain‐Programmable Luminescent Adhesive Patch With Tartrazine‐Mediated Optical Skin Clearing for Photochemical Tissue Bonding

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

Normal saline injection and rapid rollover; preventive effect on incidence of pneumothorax after CT-guided lung biopsy: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Pulmonary Medicine
Background Computed tomography (CT)-guided lung biopsy is a widely used technique for the diagnosis of pulmonary lesions and with a high technical success rate and diagnostic accuracy. On the other hand, it is associated with a high risk of complications,

Shape Memory Microneedle to Prevent Risks of Reproductive Hormone Therapy by Switching Sustained to Burst Release Under a Single Transdermal Insertion

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A shape‐memory microneedle system enables reproductive hormone therapy through a single transdermal insertion. The X‐shaped device sustains follicle‐stimulating hormone release for three days, and mild heating restores the O shape to trigger burst human chorionic gonadotropin release.

Explainable transfer learning ensemble AI model for lung ultrasound pneumothorax detection with expert benchmark

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine
Background Lung ultrasound is essential for rapid, radiation-free bedside pneumothorax diagnosis but limited by variability in human interpretation. Key gaps include insufficiently large and diverse human datasets, inconsistent image acquisition, lack of

Co‐Electrospinning Extracellular Matrix with Polycaprolactone Enables a Modular Approach to Balance Bioactivity and Mechanics of a Multifunctional Bone Wrap

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The incorporation of nondigested ECM and synthetic polymers into a co‐electrospinning system enables the decoupling of bioactivity and mechanical properties within a single wrap. This technique is used to develop a multifunctional bone wrap that achieves augmented membrane durability, sustained infection control, and enhanced vascularity for use in ...
