  • Hydrogels may better support skeletal muscle repair after volume loss

    What the study found Hydrogels are presented as promising injectable scaffolds for volumetric muscle loss (VML), a condition in which skeletal muscle loss is too large for the tissue to repair on its own and heals with fibrosis, poor blood supply, and loss of nerve supply. The review finds that natural, synthetic, and peptide-based hydrogels…

  • Hybrid bladder phantom matches ewe pressure recordings

    Hybrid bladder phantom matches ewe pressure recordings

    in

    What the study found The authors report the first closed-loop artificial bladder system driven by a spiking neural model of sacral micturition reflexes, validated against biological recordings. The system reproduced bladder pressure responses seen in vivo and showed a close match to ewe cystometry data. Why the authors say this matters The study suggests this…
