Electric Field Measurement in Radiative Hyperthermia Applications by Marco Di Cristofano, Luca Lalli, Giorgia Paglialunga, Marta Cavagnaro

“…The fundamental difference in the operability of this sensor with respect to the standard E-field square-law detectors lies in the high-power values of the considered EM sources. Numerical analyses were performed to optimize the design of the E-field sensor in the whole radiative HT frequency range and to characterize the sensor behaviour at the power levels of HT. …”

Translational PK–PD model for in vivo CAR‐T‐cell therapy delivered using CAR mRNA‐loaded polymeric nanoparticle vector by Se Jin Kim, Ganesh M. Mugundu, Aman P. Singh

“…To address this issue, we have devised a translational pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic (PK–PD) model that characterizes the transient surface CAR expression following mRNA‐encapsulated NP administration, leveraging in vitro and in vivo data alongside critical binding kinetic parameters sourced from literature. Our model adequately captures the transient surface CAR expression in both settings, while incorporating known physiological parameter values and exhibiting precise estimation of unknown parameters (coefficient of variation < 30%). …”

Performance of current tools used for on-the-day assessment and diagnosis of mild traumatic brain injury in sport: a systematic review by Phoebe Haste, Leonardo de Almeida e Bueno, Antoine Jérusalem, Jeroen Bergmann

“…However, there were large variations in accuracy metrics between reports for the KD test, for instance, the range of AUC: 0.51–0.92.Conclusion Combinations of existing methods and the KD test were most accurate in assessing SR-mTBI, despite the inconsistent accuracy values related to the KD test. The absence of a gold-standard measurement hampers our ability to diagnose or monitor SR-mTBI. …”
