Monro-Kellie 2.0: The dynamic vascular and venous pathophysiological components of intracranial pressure [PDF]

, 2016
For 200 years, the ‘closed box’ analogy of intracranial pressure (ICP) has underpinned neurosurgery and neuro-critical care. Cushing conceptualised the Monro-Kellie doctrine stating that a change in blood, brain or CSF volume resulted in reciprocal ...

Facile Deep Brain Electrode Coating with MXene for Improved Electrode Performance

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Facile dip‐coating of commercial carbon fiber electrodes with Ti3C2Tx MXene improves electrical conductivity, reduces impedance, and enables single‐neuron recordings in the rat hippocampus over four weeks. The coating maintains biocompatibility, minimizes inflammation, and remains MRI‐compatible.

Mesoporous Bioactive Glasses: A Powerful Tool in Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work is a comprehensive revision of bioactive glasses (BGs), pioneered by Prof. L.L. Hench, which are key in bone repair and regenerative medicine. Sol–gel methods and mesoporous designs enhanced their bioactivity, ions, and drug delivery. BGs now support gene therapy and 3D‐printed scaffolds, enabling personalized, multifunctional treatments in ...
