There is a growing demand for the development of intelligent active packaging films to maintain and monitor the freshness of meat food. Herein, nano Co-based MOF (ZIF67) with ammonia-sensitive and antimicrobial functions was successfully synthesized and then integrated into cellulose acetate (CA) matrix to prepare intelligent active films. The impacts of ZIF67 incorporation on the structure, physical and functional characteristics of CA film were fully investigated. The results demonstrated that the ZIF67 nanofillers were evenly dispersed in CA matrix, resulting in remarkable improvement on tensile strength, toughness, thermal stability, UV barrier, hydrophobicity and water vapor barrier ability of CA film. Furthermore, the prepared CA/ZIF67 films exhibited superb antimicrobial and ammonia-sensitive functions. The CA/ZIF67 intelligent films turned their color from blue at beginning to brown during progressive spoilage of shrimp. These results revealed that the CA/ZIF67 films with excellent antimicrobial and ammonia-sensitive functions could be applied in intelligent active food packaging.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common cerebrovascular disease characterized by a high incidence, disability rate, and mortality. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a key catechin compound found in green tea, has received increasing attention for its potential neuroprotective and therapeutic effects in neurological disorders. Studies have indicated that EGCG may influence various signaling pathways and molecular targets, including the inhibition of oxidative stress, reduction of inflammatory responses, suppression of cell apoptosis, regulation of cell survival, and enhancement of autophagy.

In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has emerged as a fundamental component of the standard treatment regimen for patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). However, accurately predicting the treatment effectiveness of ICIs for patients at the same TNM stage remains a challenge. In this study, we first combined multi-omics data (mRNA, lncRNA, miRNA, DNA methylation, and somatic mutations) and 10 clustering algorithms, successfully identifying two distinct cancer subtypes (CSs) (CS1 and CS2).

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a brain disorder that causes memory loss and behavioral and thinking problems. The symptoms of Alzheimer's are similar throughout its development stages, which makes it difficult to diagnose manually. Therefore, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques address the limitations of manual diagnosis.

Although conservative treatment is commonly used for osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF), some patients experience functional disability following OVF. This study aimed to develop prediction models for new-onset functional impairment following admission for OVF using machine learning approaches and compare their performance. Our study consisted of patients aged 65 years or older admitted for OVF using a large hospital-based database between April 2014 and December 2021.

Wearable robots are often powered by elastic actuators, which can mimic the intrinsic compliance observed in human joints, contributing to safe and seamless interaction. However, due to their increased complexity, when compared to direct drives, elastic actuators are susceptible to faults, which pose significant challenges, potentially compromising user experience and safety during interaction. In this article, we developed a fault-tolerant control strategy for torque assistance in a knee exoskeleton and investigated user experience during a walking task while emulating faults.
