Ear-Bot: Locust Ear-on-a-Chip Bio-Hybrid Platform.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
During hundreds of millions of years of evolution, insects have evolved some of the most efficient and robust sensing organs, often far more sensitive than their man-made equivalents. In this study, we demonstrate a hybrid bio-technological approach,...

Comparison of Robot-Assisted and Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy for Renal Hilar Tumors: Results from a Tertiary Referral Center.

Journal of endourology
To compare perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes between robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) for renal hilar tumors. We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent minimally invasive ...

State of the art in esophagectomy: robotic assistance in the abdominal phase.

Updates in surgery
Over the years, robot-assisted esophagectomy gained popularity. The current literature focused mainly on robotic assistance in the thoracic phase, whereas the implementation of robotic assistance in the abdominal phase is lagging behind. Advantages o...

Human-Robot Interaction and Sexbots: A Systematic Literature Review.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
At present, sexual robots have become a new paradigm of social robots. In this paper, we developed a systematic literature review about sexual robots (sexbots). To do this, we used the Scopus and WoS databases to answer different research questions r...

The Potential and the Limitations of Esophageal Robotic Surgery in Children.

European journal of pediatric surgery : official journal of Austrian Association of Pediatric Surgery ... [et al] = Zeitschrift fur Kinderchirurgie
INTRODUCTION:  There have been numerous reports of robotic pediatric surgery in the literature, particularly regarding urological procedures for school-aged children. Thoracic procedures appear to be less common, despite the fact that encouraging res...

Validation of the Khorana Score for Prediction of Venous Thromboembolism After Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy.

Journal of endourology
The Khorana score (KS) is used to predict the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) for cancer patients. We sought to assess the association between KS and VTE for patients who underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC). We reviewed our pros...

Does Robot Navigation and Intraoperative Computed Tomography Guidance Help with Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy? A Match-Paired Study.

World neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (rPELD) using a specially designed orthopaedic robot with an intraoperative computed tomography-equipped suite for treatment of symptomatic lum...

A protein folding robot driven by a self-taught agent.

Bio Systems
This paper presents a computer simulation of a virtual robot that behaves as a peptide chain of the Hemagglutinin-Esterase protein (HEs) from human coronavirus. The robot can learn efficient protein folding policies by itself and then use them to sol...
