Flexible pressure sensors are increasingly recognized for their potential use in wearable electronic devices, attributed to their sensitivity and broad pressure response range. Introducing surface microstructures can notably enhance sensitivity; however, the pressure response range remains constrained by the limited volume of the compressible structure. To overcome this limitation, this study implements an aligned airgap structure fabricated using 3D printing technology.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in human populations can identify potential genes linked to ARHL. Despite this, our knowledge of the biochemical and molecular mechanisms behind the condition remains incomplete.
