Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Abstract figure legend Sprint interval training (SIT) is a popular time‐efficient type of endurance training. Healthy young men performed nine SIT sessions (4–6 × 30 s all‐out cycling sprints) over 3 weeks while being supplemented with antioxidants (high doses of vitamins C and E) or placebo. Muscle biopsies taken before and after the first SIT session

Systematic Study of PDMS Optical Waveguides for Pressure Sensing Using Design of Experiments
A response surface methodology was used to systematically evaluate the impact of mix ratio and cure conditions on PDMS optical waveguide properties for pressure sensing. Mix ratio significantly influenced compression sensitivity, compressive modulus, and propagation loss, while cure temperature primarily affected refractive index.
