Understanding decision regret after penile prosthesis surgery in pelvic cancer survivors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Men's Health
Background: Erectile dysfunction is a highly prevalent consequence of pelvic cancer treatment in males. For erectile dysfunction that is refractory to pharmacological intervention, surgical implantation of a penile prosthesis offers a more definitive ...

Conduction delays after transcatheter aortic valve implantation with balloon-expandable prosthesis and high implantation technique

open access: yes, 2022
: Performing transcatheter aortic valve implantation with high implantation technique, i.e. with an aorto-ventricular ratio > 60/40, reduces the need of permanent pacemaker implantation.

Changes in frontal plane kinematics over 12-months in individuals with the Percutaneous Osseointegrated Prosthesis (POP)

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Background A bone-anchored prosthesis (BAP) eliminates the need for a conventional socket by attaching a prosthesis directly to the user’s skeleton. Currently, limited research addresses changes in gait mechanics post BAP implantation.

Bio‐Inspired Artificial Ionic Mechanoreceptor

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A skin‐inspired artificial mechanoreceptor based on ionic interactions is presented for biomimetic tactile sensing. Pressure‐driven ionic redistribution within microfluidic channels generates a self‐powered electrical signal without external bias. The generated waveform exhibits mechanoreceptor‐like temporal features, including overshoot and undershoot,

Load Distributing Metamaterials Via Discrete Optimization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mechanical metamaterials are computationally optimized to homogenize transmitted forces by minimizing the spread of reaction forces. The resulting architectures transform localized loading into broader, more uniform force distributions and experimentally demonstrate robust load spreading under quasi‐static and impact loading.
