An Edible Chitosan‐Based Acoustic Sensor for Sound‐Responsive Actuation in Edible Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces an edible acoustic sensor for robotic food and edible robotics. Built from a chitosan piezoelectric film between gold electrodes, the sensor enables acoustic communication through ON/OFF keying. Integrated into an edible robot with pneumatically actuated arms and neck, it responds to high‐frequency tones.

Metabolism and Target Organ Damage

Metabolism and Target Organ Damage, 2022
People with diabetes mellitus (DM) undergo more elective surgery than those without DM; however, up to half of the patients are undiagnosed when referred for surgery. This is an opportunity to intervene and instigate a management plan. Preoperative strategies may vary based on coexisting medical diseases such as obesity and the availability of ...

Obesity and target organ damage: the kidney

International Journal of Obesity, 2002
Obesity is a risk marker for progressive renal function loss in patients with known renal disease. There is, however, increasing evidence that obesity may also damage the kidney in otherwise healthy subjects. There appears to be an intriguing parallel between the renal effects of obesity and those of diabetes.

Hypertension and Target Organ Damage

2019
The impact of arterial hypertension on the heart, the central nervous system, the arterial vessels and the kidney is responsible for subsequent mortality and morbidity. Evaluation of early target organ damage (TOD) in these organs is an important step in a risk stratification strategy to reduce cardiovascular and renal damage.

Kidney in Diabetes: from Organ Damage Target to Therapeutic Target

Current Drug Metabolism, 2011
Despite the growing of pharmacological options for the treatment of diabetes, epidemiological studies suggest that a substantial proportion of patients does not achieve glycemic goals and so suffers from the risk of chronic complications. This review explores the inhibition of renal glucose reabsorption as a novel approach to treat hyperglycemia ...

Obesity and target organ damage: the heart

International Journal of Obesity, 2002
In most patients, coronary atherosclerosis or congestive heart failure develop as an integrated response to multiple cardiovascular risk factors. Obesity increases the prevalence of most cardiovascular risk factors and is the predominant cause of diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension.

Target organ damage in acute heart failure

Revista Clínica Española (English Edition), 2016
Acute heart failure is a prognostic factor due to its high mortality during the acute phase and the increased frequency of medium to long-term adverse events. The pathophysiological mechanisms triggered during these exacerbations can persist after reaching clinical stability, remaining even after the acute episode has ended.

Target Organ Damage and RAAS Blockade

2014
This chapter will focus on the influence of target organ damage, particularly of left ventricular hypertrophy and subclinical kidney dysfunction, in the choice of ACEIs or ARBs therapy in patients with hypertension and heart failure.

[Blood pressure components and target organ damage].

Italian heart journal. Supplement : official journal of the Italian Federation of Cardiology, 2001
In a given hypertensive patient, clinically overt cardiovascular disease is often preceded by a number of signs of target organ damage at the cardiac, arterial and renal levels. These changes have been collectively defined "pre-clinical cardiovascular disease", and carry a substantially increased risk for future cardiovascular complications.
