Structural health monitoring ensures the safety and longevity of structures like buildings and bridges. As the volume and scale of structures and the impact of their failure continue to grow, there is a dire need for SHM techniques that are scalable, inexpensive, can operate passively without human intervention, and are customized for each mechanical structure without the need for complex baseline models. We present a novel "deploy-and-forget" approach for automated detection and localization of damage in structures.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a progressive renal complication which significantly affects the patient's life with huge economic burden. Untreated acute kidney injury eventually progresses to a chronic form and end-stage renal disease. Although significant breakthroughs have been made in recent years, there are still no effective pharmacological therapies for the treatment of acute kidney injury.

Article Synopsis
  • Diabetes mellitus is becoming a major global health issue, with diabetic nephropathy leading to severe complications like end-stage renal disease and increased mortality.
  • Oxidative stress and inflammation play significant roles in diabetic kidney diseases, where the NLRP3 inflammasome is a key player in regulating inflammation through cytokine production.
  • This review emphasizes targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome for potential pharmacological treatments to improve outcomes in diabetic nephropathy, highlighting its role as a promising area for future drug development.
