Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A hydrogel for intra‐articular injection for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is formulated and comprehensively studied. After administration, the hydrogel induces a metabolic reprogramming of immunometabolism of macrophages to trigger fatty acid oxidation subsequently inducing polarization of anti‐inflammatory M2 macrophages. This results in

, 2017 Phantom limb pain occurs following limb amputations and is characterzed by pain emanating from the no longer existing limb. In many cases, this problem develops into pervasive chronic pain impairing the amputees' quality of life. In this article, we describe phenomena observable in amputees and distinguish phantom limb pain from non-painful phantom ...
