A stretchable and self‐healing energy storage device based on mechanically and electrically restorative liquid‐metal particles and carboxylated polyurethane composites by Park, Sangbaek, Thangavel, Gurunathan, Parida, Kaushik, Li, Shaohui, Lee, Pooi See

“…Stretchable and self-healing (SH) energy storage devices are indispensable elements in energy-autonomous electronic skin. However, the current collectors are not self-healable nor intrinsically stretchable, they mostly rely on strain-accommodating structures that require complex processing, are often limited in stretchability, and suffer from low device packing density and fragility. …”

Lancing drug reservoirs into subcutaneous fat to combat obesity and associated metabolic diseases by Than, Aung, Duong, Phan Khanh, Zan, Ping, Liu, Junjie, Leow, Melvin Khee-Shing, Chen, Peng

“…Specifically, ultrathin, core-shelled, and lance-shaped polymeric drug reservoirs (micro-lances [MLs]) are readily fabricated by a thermal pressing molding method and totally implanted into subcutaneous fat by lancing through the skin. Using a diet-induced obese mouse model, it is shown that the development of obesity and associated metabolic disorders is effectively inhibited by applying therapeutic core-shelled MLs once every 2 weeks. …”

Numerical modeling of the impacts of high albedo materials on building energy savings by R.E.W.M.R.K Nisansala Ratnadiwakara

“…The impact of increasing solar reflectance from 0.4 to 0.8 for non insulated reinforced concrete is equivalent to the impact achieved by including 20~22 mm of insulation material with 0.03 W/mK thermal conductivity and it was further verified, increasing solar reflectance in both non-insulated and insulated roofs are more effective in reducing conduction heat gain compared to the double skin roof. The conduction heat gain contribution to the annual energy consumption is reduced in the range of 4 - 4.5 kWh/m2 due to the impact of increasing solar reflectance from 0.4 to 0.8 in a lower floor which has no effect from roof conduction. …”

Ultrasound-compatible 3D-printed Franz diffusion system for sonophoresis with microbubbles by Chen, Xin, De Grandi, Davide, Zhu, Yonglian, Lutheryn, Gareth, Lane, Majella E., Sil dos Santos, Bruno, Carugo, Dario

“…Sonophoresis is a topical drug delivery approach that utilises ultrasound as a physical stimulus to enhance permeation of active pharmaceutical ingredients through the skin. Only limited research has however been conducted to evaluate the potential of ultrasound-responsive drug carriers, such as gas microbubbles, in sonophoresis. …”

“…Varying perceptions of disease severity between males and females were indicated by differences in symptoms leading to a diagnosis of PsA, and in symptoms reported despite treatment; more females than males reported joint tenderness, skin patches/plaques, and enthesitis. More females than males reported a major/moderate impact of PsA on their physical activity and emotional/mental well-being. …”
