Soft Artificial Ciliary Brush with Integrated Haptic Feedback for Efficient Airway Mucus Cleaning
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A fundamental mucus cleaning mechanism is reported, which utilizes both artificial cilia mechanical sweeping and suction‐based mucus cleaning. A novel haptic feedback interface for the artificial cilia provides touch feedback on tissue contact, enhancing operator control and safety.

Vision‐Based Handover and Organization of Robotic Scrub Nurse for Seamless Surgical Flow
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a pose estimation‐based robotic scrub nurse (PERSN) that assists surgical procedures by estimating the surgeon's hand position, orientation, and grasping state, along with the constraint‐based 6D pose of surgical instruments. User evaluations show that PERSN provides greater immediate usability and reduces physical demand compared ...

Liquid Jetting‐Based Miniature Robotic Navigation in Confined Fluidic Spaces
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.We introduce a new class of liquid‐jetting‐based miniature robots (JetBots) ranging in size from mm‐to‐cm, featuring a unified approach in design, fabrication, and actuation. They demonstrate fast locomotion (30.3 cm/s), rapid steering (648.8°/s), and diverse functions, such as puncturing soft materials and unlimited cargo sampling and delivery, paving

Gastrointestinal Manifestations in Rubinstein‐Taybi Syndrome
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rubinstein–Taybi syndrome is a rare genetic condition associated with a wide range of physical, cognitive, and developmental impairments, yet its gastrointestinal manifestations remain poorly characterized. Case reports and small series suggest a high prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux, constipation, dysphagia, and nutritional compromise ...

35 Individuals With HUWE1‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder and Suggested Clinical Evaluations
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT HUWE1 (HECT, UBA, and WWE Domain Containing E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase1, OMIM 300697), located at Xp11.22, encodes a ubiquitin ligase that is highly conserved across species. Genetic variants in HUWE1 described in multiple independent studies cause X‐linked intellectual disability, including in the patients identified by Juberg, Marsidi, and ...
