Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Substrate Stress Relaxation Regulates Cell‐Mediated Assembly of Extracellular Matrix

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Silicone‐based viscoelastic substrates with tunable stress relaxation reveal how matrix mechanics regulates cellular mechanosensing and cell‐mediated matrix remodelling in the stiff regime. High stress relaxation promotes assembly of fibronectin fibril‐like structures, increased nuclear localization of YAP and formation of β1 integrin‐enriched ...

Enhancement of Statin Effects on Lipid Lowering and Reduction of Cardiovascular Risk Score by (−)‐Epicatechin in Proof‐of‐Concept Pilot Study

Clinical and Translational Science
Statins play an instrumental role in reducing and managing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) but can be difficult to tolerate due to muscle‐associated side effects. There remains an unmet need for strategies that improve statin tolerance and

Proof-of-concept for an automatable mortality prediction scoring in hospitalised older adults

Frontiers in Medicine
IntroductionIt is challenging to prognosticate hospitalised older adults. Delayed recognition of end-of-life leads to failure in delivering appropriate palliative care and increases healthcare utilisation. Most mortality prediction tools specific for older adults require additional manual input, resulting in poor uptake.

Nanoscale Mapping of Plasmonic Charge Transport in Nano‐Resonators Based on Resistive Switching Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this strategy, a conductive nano‐probe is employed to induce nanoscale phase transitions and map the nanoscale conductivity and trap density of GST films. By utilizing the contrasting properties of phase‐change states, nano‐resonators are fabricated that exhibit plasmonic conduction and dramatically different transport characteristics.

Reconstruction of the subungual region for tumors of the thumb: Outcomes of the reverse, dorsoulnar flap

JPRAS Open
Background: For subungual, malignant skin tumors of the thumb, ultimate treatment has mostly been the amputation, a procedure that comes with a significant functional loss. We propose reconstruction of the defect with the reverse, homodigital, dorsoulnar,

SAGE Score in Normotensive and Pre-Hypertensive Patients: A Proof of Concept.

Arquivos brasileiros de cardiologia, 2023
The SAGE score was developed to detect individuals at risk for increased pulse wave velocity (PWV). So far, studies have been focused on hypertensive patients.To assess the ability of the score to detect non-hypertensive and pre-hypertensive patients at risk for increased PWV.Retrospective cross-sectional study of analysis of central blood pressure ...

Meta‐Rod Mechanical Metamaterials With Programmable Reconfiguration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Existing mechanical metamaterials achieve programmable large deformations in planar square or cubic configurations, restricted by required complex boundary conditions. This research proposes a 1D metamaterial, Meta‐rod, with linear, bending, twisting, area, and volume deformation modes.
