A six‐element viscoelastic model is presented for tissue‐engineered skeletal muscle, addressing the limitations of the conventional Hill's model. By introducing an active branch, the model accurately describes force responses in both elongation and isometric tests and successfully predicts the electrically induced displacement of a reverse‐action ...

Neonatal tetanus in St. Mary’s Hospital Lacor: A case report
Umbilical stump sepsis in a nonpassively immunized neonate poses a high risk to neonatal tetanus. Management of neonatal tetanus is still a great challenge in resource‐limited settings where some health facilities lack tetanus toxoid containing vaccines,

The structure of the tetanus toxin reveals pH‐mediated domain dynamics
The tetanus neurotoxin (TeNT) is a highly potent toxin produced by Clostridium tetani that inhibits neurotransmission of inhibitory interneurons, causing spastic paralysis in the tetanus disease. TeNT differs from the other clostridial neurotoxins by its

Novel compounds targeting the adaptive immune system are commonly initially investigated in healthy volunteers (HV). HV frequently lack constitutively expressed drug‐target engagement biomarkers, complicating the evaluation of pharmacological activity. The keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) neo‐antigen challenge elicits a controlled immune response in HV ...

Artificial intelligence in preclinical epilepsy research: Current state, potential, and challenges
Abstract Preclinical translational epilepsy research uses animal models to better understand the mechanisms underlying epilepsy and its comorbidities, as well as to analyze and develop potential treatments that may mitigate this neurological disorder and its associated conditions. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool across
