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

Advanced 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 ...

Implementation of First‐Line Rapid Genome Sequencing for Children in Pediatric and Cardiac Intensive Care Units

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Substantial data supports the use of rapid exome and genome sequencing (rES/rGS) in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU), but fewer studies have examined the impact of rES/rGS in other pediatric critical care units. We evaluated the impact on diagnostic yield and time to diagnosis following a single‐center hospital policy change allowing ...

Molecular mechanism of ischemic postconditioning in promoting diabetic ischemic brain injury repair via the microRNA‐34a–BDNF–SIX3 signaling axis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Diabetes combined with ischemic stroke (DMIS) exacerbates brain infarct size and neuronal damage compared to nondiabetic ischemic stroke (IS). This study reveals that microRNA‐34a (miR‐34a) plays a key role in DMIS pathogenesis: miR‐34a directly targets and suppresses brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Sine oculis homeobox 3 (SIX3), promoting
