Utilization of Retrofusion screw for PIP fusion for treatment of hammertoes

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2017
Category: Lesser Toes Introduction/Purpose: The rigid hammertoe deformity requires realignment of the proximal interphalangeal joint. Traditionally this has been achieved with resection arthroplasty with K-wire fixation of the joint. However, this method

Rewriting Polymer Fate via Chemomechanical Coupling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a life‐like “living” polymer platform that can grow, degrow, and reprogram its properties after fabrication. By integrating mass transport, reversible polymerization, and controlled catalysis, the material achieves on‐demand changes in size, shape, and mechanical properties.

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Possible Functional Moving Toes Syndrome

Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2016
Background: Moving toes syndrome has been classically described as an organic movement disorder, on occasion related to peripheral nerve injuries. The association between nerve trauma and movement disorders has become a controversial topic, and the ...

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Correction of Hammer Toe Deformity with Novel Intramedullary PIP Fusion Device versus K-Wire fixation

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2016
Category: Lesser Toes Introduction/Purpose: K-wire fixation is the most common operative procedure for hammertoe deformity today. However, intramedullary implants are gaining ground in both number of available choices and in procedures performed.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) Take the Central Stage in Driving Autoimmune Responses

Cells, 2020
Following fifteen years of research, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are widely reported in a large range of inflammatory infectious and non-infectious diseases. Cumulating evidences from in vitro, in vivo and clinical diagnostics suggest that NETs

Unilateral Ankle‐Foot Exoneuromusculoskeleton with Balance‐Sensing Feedback for Self‐Help Telerehabilitation after Stroke

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can
