Abstract

Recent attention in the biomedical and orthopedic sectors has been drawn towards bone defects, emerging as a prominent focus within orthopedic clinics. Hydrogels, due to their biocompatibility, elevated water content, softness, and flexibility, are increasingly acknowledged in tissue regeneration research. Advanced biomaterials offer numerous advantages over traditional materials, notably the capacity to respond to diverse physical, chemical, and biological stimuli. Their responsiveness to environmental cues, such as three-dimensional (3D) morphology and phase conditions, holds promise for enhancing the efficacy of localized bone lesion repairs. This paper aims to revolutionize the treatment of severe bone abnormalities by providing a comprehensive examination of hydrogels capable of morphological adaptation to environmental changes. It delineates their classification, manufacturing principles, and current research status within the field of bone defect regeneration.

Abstract

Wearable and implantable medical technologies are increasingly being used for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of illnesses and other health concerns. One's respiration can be monitored using any number of different biosensors and tracking devices. Self-powered sensors, for example, have a reduced total cost, are easy to prepare, have a high degree of design-ability, and are available in a number of different forms when compared to other types of sensors. The mechanical energy stored in the respiratory system could be converted into electrical energy by using airflow to operate self-powered sensors. Self-recharging sensors and systems are now in development to make home health monitoring and diagnosis more practical. There has not been a lot of study devoted to the models of respiratory sickness or the output signals that connect with them. Thus, investigating the character of their bond is not only difficult but also crucial. This article examined the theory behind self-powered breathing sensors and systems, as well as their output characteristics, detection indices, and other cutting-edge developments. To help communicate knowledge to other academics working in this field and interested in this topic, we also explored the challenges and potential benefits of autonomous sensors.

Abstract

Electrospinning has emerged as a simple and cost-effective technique for producing polymer nanofibers, offering a versatile approach for creating nanostructured fibers from a wide range of polymer materials. The pharmaceutical field has particularly welcomed the advent of electrospun nanofibers, as they hold immense potential for revolutionizing drug delivery systems. The recent surge of interest in electrospun nanofibers can be attributed to their unique characteristics, including elasticity and biocompatibility, which make them highly suitable for various biomedical applications. By incorporating functional ingredients into blends of nanostructured fibers, the capabilities and reliability of drug delivery devices have been significantly enhanced. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary of recent research endeavors focusing on the concept of nanofibrous mesh and its multifaceted applications. With an emphasis on the simplicity of fabrication and the virtually limitless combinations of materials achievable through this approach, nanofibrous meshes hold the promise of transforming specific treatment modalities. By streamlining the delivery of therapeutic agents and offering enhanced control over drug release kinetics, nanofibrous meshes may herald a new era in targeted and personalized medicine.

Abstract

Many different elements of patient monitoring and treatment can be supported by implantable devices, which have proven to be extremely reliable and efficient in the medical profession. Medical professionals can use the data they collect to better diagnose and treat patients as a result. The devices’ power sources, on the other hand, are battery-based, which introduces a slew of issues. As part of this review, we explore the use of harvesters in implanted devices and evaluate various materials and procedures and look at how new and improved circuits can enable the harvesters to sustain medical devices.

Abstract

Lung cancer remains one of the most prevalent and lethal malignancies worldwide, necessitating early detection and accurate classification for effective treatment. In this work, we present a unique machine learning (ML) model that uses medical imaging data to detect and classify lung cancer. Utilizing a dataset of 613 images which obtained from Kaggle, our model combines sophisticated feature extraction methods with three essential algorithms: AdaBoost, stochastic gradient descent (SGD), and random forest (RF). Orange3 data mining software was used to classify the model after it was preprocessed and features were extracted using MATLAB. Nonetheless, the model showed good performance in identifying lung cancer lesions in four different categories: squamous cell carcinoma, big cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and normal. With an accuracy of 0.998 and an AUC range of 1.000, AdaBoost notably produced the best results. Overall, ensemble ML techniques demonstrated notable benefits over single classifiers, indicating its potential to aid in the creation of accurate instruments for the diagnosis of lung cancer in its early stages.
