Biosynthetic mesh in hernia repair: A systematic review and meta-analysis

International Journal of Abdominal Wall and Hernia Surgery
INTRODUCTION: Biosynthetic mesh is the latest class of hernia mesh. It is a slowly absorbable synthetic mesh and promises to reduce hernia recurrence and other complications, such as mesh infection, erosion, adhesions, and chronic pain.

Wearable Smart Patches on Sustainable Chitosan With Reversible Microbial Growth‐Inhibitory Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitosan, a polysaccharide upcycled from biowaste, has long promised sustainable, biocompatible, and antimicrobial films and devices, an appeal reinforced by its recent regulatory recognition, with several chitosan‐based antibacterial dressings gaining clearance through the Food and Drug Administration's 510(k) pathway.

Rational design of an artificial tethered enzyme for non-templated post-transcriptional mRNA polyadenylation by the second generation of the C3P3 system

Scientific Reports
We have previously introduced the first generation of C3P3, an artificial system that allows the autonomous in-vivo production of mRNA with m7GpppN-cap. While C3P3-G1 synthesized much larger amounts of capped mRNA in human cells than conventional nuclear

Regulated Ion‐Diffusion Hydrogels for Subtle and Multimodal Temperature‐Strain Sensing in Wound Monitoring

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, dual‐channel hydrogel patch enables simultaneous detection of wound temperature and strain by integrating ion‐diffusion‐mediated thermoelectric and resistive sensing. The conformal design maintains stable performance during motion, capturing subtle inflammatory and mechanical changes for continuous wound monitoring.

Bio‐Inspired Synthesis of Macroporous Single Crystal Particles as Scattering Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A general strategy is presented that delivers unique, single‐crystal microparticles that combine submicron macroporosity and uniform particle shapes. A bioinspired approach is used to occlude three distinct types of additives – polystyrene microspheres, polymer vesicles and amino acids – within calcite single crystals, and subsequent thermal annealing ...

Poly-Articulate

, 2002
Poly-Articulate was a series of meditations around the paradoxes of articulation, considered in the heterogeneity of its material, visual, aural and conceptual aspects. Taking form through a collaborative working group of four artists/ designers/writers,
