Nitric oxide releasing polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate hydrogels as antibacterial and conductive strain sensors.

International journal of biological macromolecules
Conductive hydrogels have promising applications in flexible electronic devices and artificial intelligence, which have attracted much attention in recent years. However, most conductive hydrogels have no antimicrobial activity, inevitably leading to...

Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy After SpaceOAR Placement.

Urology
BACKGROUND: Patients with prostate cancer are offered a wide range of treatments from radiation therapy to chemotherapy to surgery. When giving radiation therapy, SpaceOAR hydrogel has been part of the standard treatment for the last decade to reduce...

Ultrastretchable High-Conductivity MXene-Based Organohydrogels for Human Health Monitoring and Machine-Learning-Assisted Recognition.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
Conductive hydrogels as promising candidates of wearable electronics have attracted considerable interest in health monitoring, multifunctional electronic skins, and human-machine interfaces. However, to simultaneously achieve excellent electrical pr...

A pair of deep learning auto-contouring models for prostate cancer patients injected with a radio-transparent versus radiopaque hydrogel spacer.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Absorbable hydrogel spacer injected between prostate and rectum is gaining popularity for rectal sparing. The spacer alters patient anatomy and thus requires new auto-contouring models.

Multiplex Identification of Post-Translational Modifications at Point-of-Care by Deep Learning-Assisted Hydrogel Sensors.

Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)
Multiplex detection of protein post-translational modifications (PTMs), especially at point-of-care, is of great significance in cancer diagnosis. Herein, we report a machine learning-assisted photonic crystal hydrogel (PCH) sensor for multiplex dete...

Advances in materials-based therapeutic strategies against osteoporosis.

Biomaterials
Osteoporosis is caused by the disruption in homeostasis between bone formation and bone resorption. Conventional management of osteoporosis involves systematic drug administration and hormonal therapy. These treatment strategies have limited curative...

A low-power and flexible bioinspired artificial sensory neuron capable of tactile perceptual and associative learning.

Journal of materials chemistry. B
Biomimetic haptic neuron systems have received a lot of attention from the booming artificial intelligence industry for their wide applications in personal health monitoring, electronic skin, and human-machine interfaces. In this work, inspired by th...

Deep learning-assisted smartphone-based portable and visual ratiometric fluorescence device integrated intelligent gel label for agro-food freshness detection.

Food chemistry
Here, a smartphone-assisted dual-color ratiometric fluorescence smart gel label-based visual sensing platform was constructed for real-time evaluation of the freshness of agro-food based on the biogenic amines responses. Green-emission fluorescence c...

Four-Dimensional Printing of Stimuli-Responsive Hydrogel-Based Soft Robots.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
The present protocol describes the creation of four-dimensional (4D), time-dependent, shape-changeable, stimuli-responsive soft robots using a three-dimensional (3D) bio-printing method. Recently, 4D printing techniques have been extensively proposed...

Bioinspired shape shifting of liquid-infused ribbed sheets.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
The recent emergence of stimuli-responsive, shape-shifting materials offers promising applications in fields as different as soft robotics, aeronautics, or biomedical engineering. Targeted shapes or movements are achieved from the advantageous coupli...
