BACKGROUND: It is difficult for surgeons to exert appropriate forces during delicate operations due to lack of force feedback in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RMIS). A 4-DOF surgical grasper with a modular wrist and 6-axis force sensing ...
BACKGROUND: In preclinical testing, ventricular wall injection of hydrogels has been shown to be effective in modulating ventricular remodeling and preserving cardiac function. For some approaches, early-stage clinical trials are under way. The hydro...
Split G-quadruplexes are considered excellent tools for biosensing and diagnostics, but splitting G-quadruplexes may often lead to a loss of function, limiting their effectiveness. This study aims to identify and classify functional split G-quadruple...
RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a transformative approach for cancer therapy, enabling precise gene silencing through small interfering RNA (siRNA). However, the clinical application of siRNA-based treatments faces challenges such as rapid deg...
