Microgels Enable iPSCs to Assemble, Expand, and Differentiate Into Organoids—From Sizable to High‐Throughput

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A chemically defined PEG‐based microgel platform enables scalable, reproducible production of three‐dimensional microgel‐iPSC constructs in multiple sizes. The system is compatible with high‐throughput automation and supports human iPSC expansion and differentiation within a single construct, including directed differentiation into cardiac organoids ...

Thickness‐Defined Transport Regime Toward Near‐Ideal Area‐Type Switching

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
By thinning the oxide layer, memristors pass from diode‐like and battery‐effect‐dominated behavior toward eventual short‐circuit failure. Within the intermediate 5–6 nm window, they reach a near‐ideal analog area‐type switching regime, featuring symmetric hysteresis, area‐dependent conductance, and continuous linear programming of HRS and LRS with ...

Mechanoactive Biomaterials for Cell–Matrix Mechanotransduction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows how individual triggers (force, light, or temperature) and combined optothermal or receptor‐targeted actuation induce material responses at the tissue, cellular, and receptor scales. Their spatial (global or focused) and temporal (continuous or cyclic) modulation determines the resulting mechanical output.

Residual Stone Fragment after Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy; Shockwave Lithotripsy Vs Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery

Advanced Medical Journal
Background and objectives: The integration of technology into percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedures has yet to eliminate the issue of residual stone fragments, which cause recurrence or blockage of ureters.

Wafer‐Scale Direct Growth of Ultraclean Monolayer Amorphous Carbon on c‐Sapphire by Remote Catalytic Dehydrogenation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Remote catalytic dehydrogenation enables the direct growth of monolayer amorphous carbon on a 2‐inch sapphire wafer by thermal CVD. Spatial separation of the catalyst from the growth substrate eliminates metallic residue and post‐growth processing, yielding a wafer‐scale uniform film with a random polygonal sp2‐hybridized carbon network that exhibits ...

Comparative evaluation of Stone Cone and NTrap for prevention of stone retropulsion during ureteroscopic lithotripsy for upper and mid-ureteric calculi

African Journal of Urology
Background Stone retropulsion during ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL) adversely affects stone-free rates and may increase the need for auxiliary procedures, particularly in upper and mid-ureteric calculi.

Programmable Microgel Degradation in Dynamic Granular Hydrogels Guides Extracellular Matrix Assembly During Tissue Repair

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports on the chemical modification of hyaluronic acid to create hydrogels with hydrolytic degradability ranging from 2–28 days. Granular hydrogels that undergo timed degradation to increase porosity enhance cell invasion and provisional ECM remodeling in a muscle injury model, leading to reduced fibrosis and improved regeneration ...
