Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Temporally Reconfigurable Reservoir Computing with Flexible Electrolyte‐Gated TFTs for High‐Performance Neuromorphic Processing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A temporally reconfigurable reservoir computing system is developed using ultrathin, flexible, all‐solid‐state electrolyte‐gated thin‐film transistors (UFLEX TFTs). By simply tuning temporal dynamics electrically, the system achieves 93.7% accuracy for MNIST handwritten digits, 90.3% for CIFAR‐10 images, and 81.8% for chest X‐rays, surpassing CNNs in ...

Detecting pneumothorax during cardiopulmonary resuscitation: The potential of defibrillator measured transthoracic impedance

Resuscitation Plus
Introduction: Pneumothorax is a potentially life-treating condition that can represents a complication of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). An increase in the total amount of air within the thorax may act as an insulator increasing transthoracic ...

Minimally Invasive Chemical Biopsy Needle with Self‐Wettable Extraction Phase For In Vivo Tissue Sampling During Medical Procedures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A new tissue sampling device using an acupuncture needle with bio‐compatible extraction sorbents in the recessed section is developed. The coating material using self‐wettable particles doesn't require solvent activation after sterilization. This device is applied for the anti‐cancer drug concentration monitoring during the in vivo lung perfusion ...

Efficacy of sirolimus for the prevention of recurrent pneumothorax in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis: a case series

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
Pneumothorax is one of the most common symptoms in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). However, current management strategies for patients with LAM who present with recurrent pneumothorax remain inadequate.

Molecular Design of a Naturally Derived Hemostatic Sealant with Prolonged Antimicrobial Activity for Repairing Elastic Organ Injuries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An injectable, photocrosslinkable hydrogel sealant—comprising GelMAG, DMA, and pDDA—demonstrated strong underwater adhesion, elasticity, biocompatibility, and broad‐spectrum antibacterial activity. This material rapidly sealed dynamic internal organ injuries and significantly reduced blood loss in vivo. Its superior performance over commercial products

Nationwide Survey of the Surgical Treatment for Hiatal Hernia in Japan

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This nationwide study of 960 hiatal hernia surgeries in Japan found that patients with Type I hernia had distinct characteristics and more favorable surgical outcomes compared to Types II–IV. Postoperative dysphagia was significantly associated with Types II–IV, preoperative dysphagia, and esophageal strictures, highlighting the need for careful ...

Efficacy of Sequential Hepatic Vein Embolization Following Portal Vein Embolization in Promoting Regeneration of Liver Volume and Function Before Right‐Sided Major Hepatectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Sequential hepatic vein embolization (HVE) following portal vein embolization (PVE) significantly improves both the volume and function of the future remnant liver (FRL) compared to PVE alone. In this study, the FRL regeneration rates for volume and function were markedly higher and faster in the PVE–HVE group, with no differences in surgical outcomes ...
