The development of bionic organ-on-a-chip technology relies heavily on advancements in in situ sensors and biochip packaging. By integrating precise biological and fluid condition sensing with microfluidics and electronic components, long-term dynamic closed-loop culture systems can be achieved. This study aims to develop biocompatible heterogeneous packaging and laser surface modification techniques to enable the encapsulation of electronic components while minimizing their impact on fluid dynamics.

Objectives: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) in pregnancy is challenging. This study explores how assisted hybrid closed-loop (HCL) therapy versus sensor-augmented pump therapy (SAPT) impacts quality of life (QoL) in pregnancy.
Methods: We interviewed 22 of 24 participants randomized to HCL therapy or SAPT in the Pregnancy Intervention with a Closed-Loop System study.

Epilepsy is a prevalent neurological disorder that affects approximately 1% of the global population. Approximately 30-40% of patients respond poorly to antiepileptic medications, leading to a significant negative impact on their quality of life. Closed-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a promising treatment for individuals who do not respond to medical therapy.

In this case, the electroencephalogram (EEG) was used to guide anesthesia care for a pediatric patient with Alexander's Disease undergoing serial intrathecal injections. Previous procedures using a standard maintenance propofol dose of up to 225 µg/kg/min led to postanesthetic recovery times of over 6 hours, requiring a neurology consult for noncoherence. The EEG assisted in guiding maintenance propofol dosing to 75 µg/kg/min, decreasing postanesthetic wash-off and postanesthesia care unit (PACU) recovery time by 50%.

All cells in the human body, including cancer cells, possess specific electrical properties crucial for their functions. These properties are notably different between normal and cancerous cells. Cancer cells are characterized by autonomous oscillations and damped electromagnetic field (EMF) activation.
