This work presents an inchworm‐like dual‐balloon‐assisted colonoscopic robot (IDCR) based on a rod‐driven two‐segment continuum section. The IDCR enables the active straightening of the sigmoid colon through an inchworm‐like locomotion strategy, thereby avoiding loop formation.

Origami turns a single silicone chamber into three different soft fluidic actuators. Crease angles alone decide whether it elongates, bends, or twists, and the fully folded chambers are cast monolithically in one day. Below 15 kPa, they reach 268% axial stretch, 72° bending, and 55° twist—no strain‐limiting layers, no rigid reinforcements, no vacuum ...

A Multidimensional Perspective on Network Conditions in Telesurgery
A multidimensional framework systematically evaluates how combined network impairments influence telesurgical performance. By jointly analyzing latency, jitter, bandwidth, and packet loss, the proposed methodology identifies relevant network condition parameters and their interactions, supporting the design of reliable and safe telesurgical systems ...

An Adult Presentation of KIF11‐Related MCLID Syndrome: Case Report and 40‐Year Follow‐Up
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in KIF11 are linked to autosomal dominant syndromes with microcephaly, chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, and intellectual disability (MCLID), though adult presentations remain underreported. We report a 42‐year‐old female presenting with a de novo single‐amino acid in‐frame deletion in the KIF11 gene (c.1294_1296del; p ...

ABSTRACT Background Healing dynamics after anterior skull base (ASB) reconstruction following transnasal endoscopic surgery (TES) for sinonasal malignancies remain poorly characterized. This study aimed to describe the postoperative healing process, quantify time to healing, identify factors influencing healing, and assess radiologic evolution over ...
