From Data to Discovery: Machine Learning–Enabled Intelligent Characterization of Two‐Dimensional Materials

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Machine learning serves as a central engine for the intelligent characterization of two‐dimensional materials by integrating multimodal techniques, including optical microscopy, spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and scanning probe microscopy (SPM). This unified framework enables automated, high‐throughput, and quantitative extraction of structural ...

Reconfigurable Design and Optimization‐Based Control of an Integrated Leg‐Arm Robot for Space Applications With an Underactuated Body

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A quadrupedal integrated leg‐arm robot with an underactuated reconfigurable body is developed. By using a Sarrus mechanism as the body, the robot enables reconfiguration through its supporting limbs, achieving mode switching without additional actuators.

Systemic Corticosteroids in the Management of Sinonasal Disease: An Evidence‐Based Expert Review

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a prevalent, heterogeneous inflammatory disease associated with significant morbidity. Systemic corticosteroids (SCS) are commonly prescribed for their anti‐inflammatory effects, but cumulative exposure carries risks, including metabolic, cardiovascular, and skeletal complications.

A novel rat model of pulmonary artery embolism and the application value of lung ultrasound B‐lines in early‐stage pulmonary embolism

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We report a novel embolus‐induced PE rat model prepared via the inferior vena cava under ultrasound guidance. The embolus employed featured a tubular plastic casing filled with thrombus. By minimizing the contact surface between plasmin and thrombus, it effectively restrains the elevated plasmin activity in rats.

Synergistic Advanced Oxidation and Physicochemical Treatment Strategies for Antibiotic Removal and Resistance Mitigation in Water

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...
