Penile prosthesis – a viable solution for erectile dysfunction refractory to conservative therapy [PDF]

Romanian Journal of Military Medicine, 2015
Introduction: Erectile dysfunction(ED) is a serious condition which can affect men of all ages, with an important impact over the quality of life. When conservative therapy fails, a viable solution is the penile prosthesis implantation (PPI). Objective:

Ion‐Pair‐Tuned Ionogels for Broad‐Range Linear Pressure Sensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ionogels engineered through ion‐pair tuning extend the linear sensing range of capacitive pressure sensors. By balancing ionic mobility and polarizability within the polymer matrix, this approach mitigates dielectric saturation and maintains a stable pressure response across a broad operating range.
