Background Early studies suggest that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated
with a high incidence of cardiac arrhythmias. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus …

We created nanometer-scale transmembrane channels in lipid bilayers by means of self-assembled
DNA-based nanostructures. Scaffolded DNA origami was used to create a stem that …

Objectives : The aim of this study was to determine the long-term prognosis with postoperative
markers of myocardial ischemia and infarction. Background : Cardiac troponins (cTn) are …

This paper describes the design and characterization of a small, membraneless redox fuel
cell. The smallest channel dimensions of the cell were 2 mm × 50 μm or × 200 μm; the cell …

Biological protein pores and pore-forming peptides can generate a pathway for the flux of
ions and other charged or polar molecules across cellular membranes. In nature, these …

Progress towards the integration of technology into living organisms requires electrical power
sources that are biocompatible, mechanically flexible, and able to harness the chemical …

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a megatrend that cuts across all scientific and engineering
disciplines and establishes an integrating technical evolution to improve production efficiencies …

Study Design. A series of patients were prospectively studied to determine the morbidity and
possible complications of minimally invasive anterior lumbar interbody fusion by two new …

Synthetic nanopores have been used to study individual biomolecules in high throughput,
but their performance as sensors does not match that of biological ion channels. Challenges …

The Brassicaceae is a large plant family (338 genera and 3,700 species) of major scientific
and economic importance. The taxonomy of this group has been plagued by convergent …
