Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics for wearable and implantable sensing and therapy
Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics are emerging as versatile platforms for wearable and implantable health monitoring and therapeutic applications. These bioelectronics use organic and inorganic matrices combined with advanced fillers, which feature high conductivity, electrochemical sensitivity, softness, and biocompatibility.

Abstract In this report, we describe two cases of diaphragmatic endometriosis with concurrent hepatorenal recess peritoneal involvement managed using robotic‐assisted laparoscopic surgery with the da Vinci Xi platform. In both patients, diaphragmatic implants and hepatorenal recess peritoneal lesions were excised en bloc, followed by resection of ...

Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

Transient right hemidiaphragmatic paralysis following subclavian venous catheterization: possible implications of anatomical variation of the phrenic nerve -a case report- [PDF]
Phrenic nerve paralysis is an unusual complication associated with central venous catheterization. Various mechanisms have been proposed. We present a case of transient right hemidiaphragmatic paralysis after subclavian venous catheterization.

Cognitive Dysfunction Is Associated With an Underestimation of Respiratory Function in ALS
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The association between low forced vital capacity (FVC) and cognitive impairment in ALS is ambiguous; it could be due to respiratory dysfunction and/or poor effort from cognitive deficits. We used the objective, non‐volitional phrenic nerve motor response amplitude (PAmp) to clarify how cognitive status affects the ...

The combination of cardiac resynchronization therapy and pulmonary artery banding was associated with substantial improvement in advanced heart failure infants with left ventricular dilated cardiomyopathy and left bundle branch block. Most patients exhibited marked improvement in clinical status and ventricular function, along with a reduction in QRS ...
