Thermal Injury Producing Melanoma‐Like Features on Reflectance Confocal Microscopy
ABSTRACT Objectives Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) improves diagnostic specificity for equivocal pigmented lesions; however, certain conditions may mimic melanoma and limit its accuracy. We aimed to characterize RCM features of thermally injured lesions that mimic melanoma.

ABSTRACT Background Achieving continence in patients with neurogenic bladder is a difficult goal especially when stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency is involved. Two techniques are commonly used in that setting, but they have never been directly compared: the artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) and the fascial ...

Sickle Cell Disease: Historical Overview and Current Therapies
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide, yet the limited treatment options currently available do not always adequately control the disease and carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment is hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, a procedure that carries considerable challenges and numerous ...

Abstract Exertional heat illness (EHI) and exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER) are increasingly recognized causes of morbidity in competitive and tactical athletes. Cardiac troponin (cTn) elevation, traditionally viewed as a marker of myocardial necrosis, may also be seen in these settings and can create significant diagnostic and prognostic uncertainty ...

Improving Human Diving Endurance With a Field‐Deployable Exoskeleton
High energetic demands to overcome drag, combined with a finite supply of self‐contained breathing gas, fundamentally limit human endurance in underwater locomotion. Here, we present DiveMate, a portable exoskeleton that provides adaptive bidirectional assistance synchronized with fin‐kicking during diving, reducing lower‐limb muscle activation and ...
