Root‐Inspired Microneedle Patch With Interlocked Rigid‐Soft Architecture for High Tissue‐Adaptiveness

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A root‐inspired microneedle array patch uses lattice‐based mechanical interlocking to unite rigid microneedles with a flexible substrate. The interlocked rigid–soft architecture improves interfacial bonding, supports stable adhesion on curved and wet tissues under dynamic motion, and provides a versatile platform for robust biointerfacing and future ...

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non‐Syndromic Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...

Transient Sleep Deprivation Induces Persistent Auditory Neuropathy via ROS‐Initiated Neuroinflammation and BK Channel Suppression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep disturbance severity closely tracks hearing loss in a clinical cohort, yet the mechanistic link remains unclear. Acute sleep deprivation is shown to trigger transient cochlear oxidative stress that switches into a self‐sustaining neuroinflammatory state, suppressing BK channels and causing irreversible synaptopathy.

Complementary Role of Vestibular to Neurological Evaluation in Assessment of Dizzy Children [PDF]

open access: yesZagazig University Medical Journal
Background: Vestibular disorders are common among children, but often undiagnosed due to lack of vestibular assessment. Diagnosis achieved through assessment of vestibular and neurological functions.Objectives: The present work aims to evaluate ...

Abnormal Visuo-vestibular Interactions in Vestibular Migraine: a Cross Sectional Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Vestibular migraine is amongst the commonest causes of episodic vertigo. Chronically, patients with vestibular migraine develop abnormal responsiveness to both vestibular and visual stimuli characterised by heightened self-motion sensitivity and visually-

Retrospective Grid Cells in the Medial Entorhinal Cortex Encode Past Paths During Spatial Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Retrospective grid cells are identified in the medial entorhinal cortex, with spatial firing patterns that become most grid‐like when activity is projected onto recently traversed locations. Their coding loses spatial precision in darkness and is disrupted during assisted movement, indicating that entorhinal representations incorporate recent path ...

Frequency and intensity discrimination in children with cochlear implants

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology
Background Frequency discrimination underlies more complicated auditory activities like speech comprehension and interpretation. However, intensity differences indicate how far apart noises are.

Supplemental CO2 improves oxygen saturation, oxygen tension, and cerebral oxygenation in acutely hypoxic healthy subjects

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2020
Oxygen is viewed in medicine as the sole determinant of tissue oxygenation, though carbon dioxide homeostasis is equally important and clinically often ignored. The aims of this study were as follows: (a) to examine the effects of different acute hypoxic

Suppressing Photothermal Artifacts in Flexible Fluorescent Fiber‐Optic Sensors for Accurate and Precise In Situ Temperature Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A partial‐inner‐cladding optical fiber (PICOF) is developed to suppress photothermal artifacts in fluorescent fiber‐optic thermometry by isolating the sensing layer from regions prone to photothermal effects. This structural design strategy enables high‐fidelity operation at elevated excitation power, achieving high accuracy (maximum absolute error ...
