3D printed PEDOT:PSS-based conducting and patternable eutectogel electrodes for machine learning on textiles.

The proliferation of medical wearables necessitates the development of novel electrodes for cutaneous electrophysiology. In this work, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) is combined with a deep eutectic solvent (DES) and polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) to develop printable and biocompatible electrodes for long-term cutaneous electrophysiology recordings. The ...

Quantifying Nocturnal Scratch in Atopic Dermatitis: A Machine Learning Approach Using Digital Wrist Actigraphy.

Nocturnal scratching substantially impairs the quality of life in individuals with skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis (AD). Current clinical measurements of scratch rely on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) on itch over the last 24 h. Such measurements lack objectivity and sensitivity. Digital health technologies (DHTs), such as wearable sensors, have been widely used to capture behaviors in...

Distillation of multi-class cervical lesion cell detection via synthesis-aided pre-training and patch-level feature alignment.

Automated detection of cervical abnormal cells from Thin-prep cytologic test (TCT) images is crucial for efficient cervical abnormal screening using c...
