3DKnITS: Three-dimensional Digital Knitting of Intelligent Textile Sensor for Activity Recognition and Biomechanical Monitoring.

We present an approach to develop seamless and scalable piezo-resistive matrix-based intelligent textile using digital flat-bed and circular knitting machines. By combining and customizing functional and common yarns, we can design the aesthetics and architecture and engineer both the electrical and mechanical properties of a sensing textile. By incorporating a melting fiber, we propose a method to shape and personalize three-dimensional piezo-resistive fabric structure that can conform to the human body through thermoforming principles.

Pan-cancer Transcriptomic Predictors of Perineural Invasion Improve Occult Histopathologic Detection.

Purpose: Perineural invasion (PNI) is associated with aggressive tumor behavior, recurrence, and metastasis, and can influence the administration of adjuvant treatment. However, standard histopathologic examination has limited sensitivity in detecting PNI and does not provide insights into its mechanistic underpinnings.

Experimental Design: A multivariate Cox regression was performed to validate associations between PNI and survival in 2,029 patients across 12 cancer types.
