Ultra‐Sensitive and Linear Flexible Pressure Sensors with Tri‐Scale Graded Microstructures for Advanced Health Monitoring and Robotic Perception

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A flexible piezoresistive sensor with a 3D tri‐scale graded microstructure is proposed, overcoming the trade‐off between sensitivity and linearity. The device achieves ultra‐high sensitivity (138.6 kPa−1), a broad linear range (400 kPa, R2 = 0.99), and exceptional stability (24 000 repeated loading cycles), enabling precise detection of physiological ...

A Soft Pneumatic Exosuit to Assist Pronosupination in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A lightweight (30 g) textile‐based pneumatic exosuit assists forearm pronosupination in individuals with cervical spinal cord injury. The soft robot enhances forearm range of motion and reduces muscle effort without hindering hand function. Tested in 10 patients during an interactive exergame, it improves motor performance and demonstrates promise for ...

Improvement of the Rotation Arch of the Posterior Interosseous Pedicle Flap Preserving Both Reverse Posterior and Anterior Interosseous Vascular Sources. [PDF]

, 2016
PURPOSE: The reverse posterior interosseous artery flap has several advantages, not sacrificing any major blood vessel, but its relatively short pedicle limits the use to cover defects up to the metacarpophalangeal joint.
