Emerging Triboelectric Nanogenerators for In‐Body Implantation

Small Methods, Volume 10, Issue 3, 9 February 2026.
This review explores functional implantable triboelectric nanogenerators in biomedical applications, discussing their mechanisms, electricity generation, and design approaches. To solve postimplantation challenges, four types of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are introduced: stretchable, bioadhesive, on‐demand biodegradable, and multiresponsive ...

Can unsupervised machine learning gain new insights into urodynamic pressure flow pattern analysis?

BJU International, Volume 137, Issue 1, Page 112-119, January 2026.
Objectives To explore the use of unsupervised machine learning (UML) to analyse segments of the pressure flow study (PFS) curve after maximum flow, and subsequently to analyse the urodynamic and patient characteristics of men in the detected clusters. Subjects and Methods In this study, we considered 1650 PFSs of men with lower urinary tract symptoms ...

The Evolving Landscape of Immunotoxicity: Charting Mechanisms and Future Strategies for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Adverse Events

Med Research, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 322-358, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has significantly improved the efficacy of cancer therapy, but their associated immune‐related adverse events (irAEs) can severely compromise treatment safety. This review systematically summarizes the core mechanisms underlying irAEs, which include multi‐organ damage resulting from T‐cell ...

Dorsal Genital Nerve Stimulation as an Adjunctive Therapy to Control Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity After Spinal Cord Injury

Artificial Organs, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 1787-1798, December 2025.
People with spinal cord injury (SCI) experience bladder overactivity, which can cause incontinence. Dorsal genital nerve stimulation (DGNS) can suppress overactivity, providing a longer duration to reach a toilet. People with SCI trialed home‐based DGNS for 8 weeks. DGNS was effective in the laboratory, and participants found home‐based DGNS acceptable.

Difficulties in Manipulating the Female Artificial Urinary Sphincter Pump: Prevalence and Management [PDF]

International Neurourology Journal
Purpose While pump manipulation is rarely problematic in male patients with artificial urinary sphincters (AUSs), the situation may differ in female patients due to anatomical or cultural factors.
