A constraint‐based analytical framework maps the coupled effects of material properties, structural parameters, and operating conditions in tubular dielectric elastomer pumps for extracorporeal circulatory applications. The approach defines performance boundaries through mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic constraints and identifies feasible design ...

Histological aspects of mini-grafting of passiflora edulis sims. And passiflora mucronata lam.
In Brazil, the main cultivated passion fruit species is Passiflora edulis, which is affected by Fusarium soil fungus. P. mucronata species stands out because it presents resistance to this fungus, being thus an alternative rootstock to yellow passion ...

Surgical Significance of Tibioperoneal Trunk in Lower Limb Revascularization Procedures
Background: Popliteal artery is a continuation of femoral artery, which extends obliquely from the osseoaponeurotic opening of adductor magnus to lower border of popliteus muscle, where it terminates by dividing into anterior tibial artery and ...

Self‐Sealing Microneedles Improve Precision and Reduce Reflux in Subretinal Cell Transplantation
Ultrafine 49G microneedles enable subretinal delivery of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells through a 50 µm outer diameter tip. Compared with conventional 38G microcannulas, these microneedles reduce cell suspension reflux in a rabbit model, highlighting the potential of microinvasive delivery instruments to improve ...

Mechanisms Underlying Graft Union Formation and Rootstock Scion Interaction in Horticultural Plants
Grafting is a common practice for vegetative propagation and trait improvement in horticultural plants. A general prerequisite for successful grafting and long term survival of grafted plants is taxonomic proximity between the root stock and scion.

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Comparative Outcomes of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair versus Open Surgical Repair for Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis [PDF]
Introduction: Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms (DTAAs) pose significant management challenges, with Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) increasingly replacing Open Surgical Repair (OSR) due to its minimally invasive nature.
