Wearable electrocardiography (ECG) is shifting cardiovascular monitoring from episodic in-hospital testing to continuous out-of-hospital assessment. Artificial intelligence-enabled ECG (AI-ECG) provides a new pathway for extracting clinically useful information from out-of-hospital wearable recordings. This review is organized around the wearable AI-ECG monitoring pipeline, summarizing key advances in model development, clinical application, and real-world validation, while emphasizing the special requirements that wearable scenarios impose on algorithm design and clinical translation. At present, arrhythmia screening remains the most mature application of AI-ECG, with deep learning models achieving cardiologist-level or clinician-comparable performance in several well-defined tasks. With the growing availability of long-term continuous recordings, research is further extending from post-event recognition to pre-event warning, particularly for high-risk events such as acute atrial fibrillation and malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Related methods are evolving from traditional feature-based machine learning toward deep learning and foundation models that can exploit waveform morphology, rhythm dynamics, and long-range temporal information. Beyond rhythm disorders, AI-ECG is also being explored for structural cardiac abnormalities, metabolic disorders, and broader systemic risk prediction, suggesting a potential role for ECG as a digital biomarker platform. However, several barriers continue to limit clinical translation, including limited cross-device and cross-population generalizability, insufficient interpretability, and the lack of prospective real-world validation. Future progress will likely depend on standardized data systems, artifact-aware modeling, cross-device validation, foundation models, longitudinal risk modeling, and intelligent systems designed for clinical workflows. Overall, wearable AI-ECG is evolving from passive abnormality detection toward continuous, proactive, and personalized health risk assessment.

Understanding the structure-property relationship of braided nitinol stents is critical for developing devices with optimized mechanical performance for endovascular applications. This study systematically investigates how key geometric parameters (including points per inch (PPI), braiding angle, wire count, wire coverage coefficient (WCC), diameter, and braiding architecture), influence the compressive, bending, and torsional behavior of nitinol stents. A combined experimental and finite element analysis (FEA) approach was used to evaluate 54 configurations under three mechanical loading conditions. Results reveal strong linear correlations (R² ≥ 0.90) between mechanical performance and PPI, WCC, braiding angle, and diameter. Wire count plays a contradictory role in mechanical performance: higher wire numbers increase bending and torsional stiffness but reduce radial strength. The 1-1 braid structure provides superior torsional and bending strength compared to the 1-2 structure, without compromising compressive strength. Notably, in small-diameter (1 mm) catheters, increasing PPI reduces flexibility and torsional stiffness, contrary to trends observed in larger diameters. These findings offer a comprehensive design guideline for tailoring stent architecture to match specific mechanical and clinical requirements.

Microwave (MW) medicine has emerged as a distinct interdisciplinary field, predicated on the unique capacity of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation to penetrate deep-seated tissues and interact efficiently with biological dielectrics for diverse therapeutic and diagnostic applications. Despite its clinical establishment in tumor ablation and hemostasis, conventional MW interventions are largely constrained by non-selective macroscopic heating, leaving the intricate potential of non-thermal biophysical modulation underutilized. The integration of engineered biomaterials provides a transformative framework to bridge this gap, enabling the precise modulation of MW-tissue interactions at the micro- and nanoscale. This review systematically elucidates how rational material design via tuning dielectric and magnetic loss, band-gap engineering, and structural polarization expands MW medicine beyond bulk heating toward controlled biological regulation. We discuss mechanisms where biomaterials function as localized energy antennas to sharpen thermal gradients, as MW-dynamic sensitizers to induce reactive oxygen species generation, and as intelligent interfaces to regulate ionic homeostasis. Representative advancements are summarized across antitumor, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory therapies, alongside innovations in high-fidelity thermoacoustic imaging. Furthermore, emerging frontiers in non-destructive tissue repair and neuromodulation are highlighted. This review critically examines the design principles and translational challenges of MW-based medical technologies by analyzing correlations between physicochemical parameters and specific biological outcomes. It is expected to advance MW medicine from empirically guided thermal interventions toward mechanism-driven, precision-targeted electromagnetic therapeutics.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are pivotal regulators of the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and major contributors to resistance against conventional and immunotherapeutic interventions. Rather than eliminating TAMs, emerging strategies aim to functionally reprogram them toward an antitumor phenotype, a therapeutic objective uniquely enabled by the precise, transient, and non-integrating nature of mRNA, which allows reversible modulation without genomic risk. Recent progress in nanocarrier design has improved selective delivery to TAMs through both passive uptake and active targeting, with administration routes tailored to tumor location. Precise immunomodulatory interventions in macrophages, accomplished by mRNA payloads designed to induce pro-inflammatory polarization, enhance phagocytosis, or block immunosuppressive signals, thereby remodel the tumor immune microenvironment and generate synergy with established treatments. Future efforts might concentrate on macrophage heterogeneity, carrier immunogenicity, and scalable formulation development to advance clinical translation, not only in cancer but also in other diseases shaped by dysregulated macrophage function.

Adrenaline hydrochloride is an indispensable drug in clinical emergencies, effective at alleviating critical conditions such as weak pulse and respiratory distress. However, the catechol moiety in its molecular structure is prone to oxidation, leading to drug degradation, reduced efficacy, and a short half-life. These inherent limitations significantly restrict its broader clinical application. To address this challenge, this study constructed an intelligent microneedle patch designed to stabilize drugs. We first grafted 3-aminophenylboronic acid onto silk fibroin via 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide/N-hydroxysuccinimide coupling chemistry. This design enables the formation of reversible boronic ester bonds between phenylboronic acid and the catechol structure of adrenaline, effectively shielding the oxidation-sensitive sites and significantly enhancing the drug’s storage stability. Upon insertion into the skin, the microneedles encounter the physiological environment where glucose competitively binds to the phenylboronic acid, triggering the cleavage of the boronic ester bonds and resulting in the on-demand release of adrenaline. A cumulative drug release rate of approximately 60% was achieved over 24 hours. This study proposes a novel “protection-release” dual-functional design, offering a new strategy for the efficient delivery and stabilized storage of catechol-containing drugs. This approach holds significant promise for applications in emergency medicine and the long-term storage of pharmaceuticals.
