Brain‐Adhesive Bioelectronics With Shape‐Morphable and Biodegradable Properties for Stable Brain Signal Monitoring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A brain‐adhesive sensor (B‐Sensor) was developed by integrating a self‐healing biodegradable elastomer, a tissue‐adhesive hydrogel, and molybdenum electrodes. The B‐Sensor adheres to brain tissue, conforms to cortical curvatures, and maintains stable electrical performance over the intended period for reliable recording of spatiotemporal brain activity

Lactylation Reprogramming in the Bone Infection Microenvironment Identifies PGK1 K361 as a Potential Therapeutic Target for Osteogenic Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection creates a high‐lactate microenvironment, promoting p300‐mediated lactylation of PGK1 at lysine 361 (K361). Lactylated PGK1 translocates to the mitochondrial outer membrane and interacts with VDAC3. This interaction triggers FtMt downregulation, iron accumulation, and excessive PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy,

Proposal of Early Drain Exchange After Pancreatoduodenectomy From the View of Reducing Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To mitigate the progression of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), appropriate drain management is required, and exchanging drainage tubes is commonly performed. However, the optimal timing of the first drain exchange has not yet been determined.
