Non‐Invasive Multidimensional Capacitive Sensing for In Vivo Traumatic Brain Injury Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Single‐electrode, multidimensional capacitive sensors noninvasively assess cerebral autoregulation and compliance for traumatic brain injury monitoring. ABSTRACT Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability, but invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is risky, and current non‐invasive methods lack the resolution and ...

Neural Circuits between Nodose Ganglion and Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Cells Regulate Lung Inflammatory Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TRPA1+αCGRP+ sensory neurons in the nodose ganglion detect external insults such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interact directly with pulmonary neuroendocrine cells (PNECs), promoting their activation and proliferation. This neural‐epithelial interaction amplifies lung inflammation.

A real‐world data‐driven approach to optimizing enoxaparin dosing in burn patients

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Enoxaparin dosing in burn patients is challenging due to physiological changes affecting absorption, distribution and clearance. The objectives of this study are to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model for enoxaparin in burn patients, evaluate target attainment with current equation‐based (EQ) dosing and propose an optimized dosing ...
