Microfluidic Valve‐Integrated Garment for Smooth Sequential Gradient Mechanotherapy
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.We present a soft wearable sleeve that delivers smooth, gap‐free compression using overlapping air‐filled actuators and tiny microfluidic valves. The system reduces bulk, lowers power needs, and uses a smartphone‐sized control box. It can provide sequential gradient compression, gradient pressure holding, and fast deflation, supporting more portable ...

A Soft Robotic Jellyfish with Decoupled Actuators for Agile 3D Locomotion
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a soft robotic jellyfish featuring a functionally decoupled actuation architecture. By separating propulsion, steering, and vertical regulation into independent modules, the robot overcomes conventional coupled‐motion limitations. Utilizing a passive‐valve‐based differential drag strategy and lateral water jets, it achieves agile 3D

Lymphatic Abnormalities in Noonan Syndrome Extend Beyond Clinically Apparent Disease
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lymphatic disease represents a well‐described manifestation of Noonan syndrome (NS), yet the full phenotypic spectrum remains incompletely characterized, especially in asymptomatic individuals. We conducted a cross‐sectional study including 10 individuals with NS (four with peripheral lymphedema and six without) and 10 age‐ and sex‐matched ...

Measuring the Interaction Between the Macro- and Micro-Vasculature
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019 Structural and functional dysfunction in both the macro- and microvasculature are a feature of essential hypertension. In a healthy cardiovascular system, the elastic properties of the large arteries ensure that pulsations in pressure and flow generated ...
