Understanding the Burden of Orofacial Involvement and Patient Treatment Preferences in Systemic Sclerosis: Results From a Large International Survey

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Orofacial manifestations are significantly impactful in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) yet remain understudied, with no dedicated clinical guidelines to inform their management. Methods An international online survey comprised38 questions addressing orofacial manifestations of SSc, including patients’ confidence in their treating ...

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...

A 3D‐Printed Model of Human Lactation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Breastfeeding supports infant and maternal health, yet in vitro models that mimic human lactation remain scarce. Here, light‐based 3D printing creates high‐resolution, alveoli‐inspired microwells that guide breast cells into polarized microtissues. The printed scaffolds embed slow‐release prolactin microcrystals to deliver hormonal cues, enabling human

Implementation of pooled saliva tests for universal screening of cCMV infection

Nature Medicine
Abstract Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) is the most common intrauterine infection, leading to neurodevelopmental disabilities. Universal newborn infant screening of cCMV has been increasingly advocated. In the absence of a high-throughput screening test, which can identify all infected newborn infants, the development of an ...

Establishment of a Responsive Tooth‐on‐a‐Chip Platform for the Assessment of Regenerative Factors in Dental Tissue Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using a tooth‐on‐a‐chip model that recreates interactions between dental epithelial and mesenchymal cells, the authors show that sequential FGF10+BMP4, BMP2, and Emdogain produce distinct, biologically consistent regenerative responses. The platform recapitulates known signal‐specific effects and, for the first time, reveals an influence of Emdogain on

Comparison of saliva with healthcare workers- and patient-collected swabs in the diagnosis of COVID-19 in a large cohort

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background A considerable amount of evidence demonstrates the potential of saliva in the diagnosis of COVID-19. Our aim was to determine the sensitivity of saliva versus swabs collected by healthcare workers (HCWs) and patients themselves to assess ...

Miniaturized Magnetic Tip Design for Endoluminal Vine Robot Navigation

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetic tip mount is designed for a miniaturized 7 mm soft‐growing vine robot to enable wireless magnetic steering and onboard imaging, while preserving a 3 mm working channel. The internal–external ring magnets design balances magnetic attachment with low eversion pressure. Experiments demonstrate ±90° steering, 34 mm bending radius, and successful
