The paper develops a patient-specific cardiac mechanics model using clinical data and evaluates its performance against simplified models, finding that truncation significantly affects results.

This paper demonstrates that tilting solid-state nanopores increases DNA dwell time by altering electric field distribution and DNA motion, enhancing single-molecule sensing capabilities.

This paper classifies expert-confirmed interictal epileptiform discharge epochs using EEG and ECG data, finding that ECG features improve categorization accuracy.

The paper develops a hollow electrospun scaffold (hydrocup) for in vivo cell delivery, showing it retains cells and releases cytokines for 6 weeks in rats.

This study uses a Compton camera to quantitatively image 225Ac daughters in a prostate cancer mouse model, showing agreement between in vivo and ex vivo activity measurements.

This paper develops an ultrasonic method to create vascularized hepatic units with improved function and integration in mice.

This paper introduces a method to covalently tether CRISPR nanoparticles to microgels for sustained and localized gene editing in human cells.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of microbial fuel cells in removing mercury and copper from gold-mine tailings, finding that physicochemical processes, not algal bio-augmentation, drive contaminant removal.

This study shows that CAF contractility dynamically regulates collagen stiffness through competition between mechanical and proteolytic remodeling, with outcomes dependent on treatment duration.

This paper introduces CORE, a method to align organoid specimens on a shared plane to eliminate sampling bias and enable reproducible histology.

This study shows that antiarrhythmic drug efficacy in atrial fibrillation depends on patient-specific electrophysiological substrates and rotor dynamics, with drug-induced frequency reduction being a key mechanism.

This paper develops a deep-unfolding network for code-multiplexed, multi-frequency impedance cytometry to resolve signal overlaps and enable label-free single-cell analysis.

Across seven pace-controlled outdoor overground speeds, healthy older adults (n=11) showed no higher gross or net walking cost than younger adults (n=16), trending lower instead.

The paper develops a model to explain regional changes in aortic opening angles after GAG depletion, showing a common FCD-linked preferred-stretch contribution across regions.

This paper develops a continuous regenerative peritoneal dialysis system using cascaded nano-ring dialyzers, achieving toxin removal in a canine model.

This study investigates how active trunk control affects reaching function in stroke patients under shoulder abduction loading, finding that trunk control reduces reaching distance but the flexion synergy is the main factor.

This paper introduces a method to create scaffold-free hollow tissue constructs using anchored cell sheet engineering, enabling the formation of tubular and spherical structures with mechanical stability and biological function.

This paper develops a human mini-heart model that mimics ventricular pump function through sacrificial molding and bioreactor technology, enabling non-invasive hemodynamic measurements and drug response testing.

This paper uses high-resolution microCT imaging to map fascicular organization in the human sciatic nerve, revealing asymmetry in branch lengths and fascicle distribution, which informs neuroprosthetic design.
