Abstract
Diabetes is the leading cause and a common comorbidity of advanced chronic kidney disease. Glycaemic management in this population is challenging and characterised by frequent excursions of hypoglycaemia and hyperglycaemia. Current glucose monitoring tools, such as HbA1c, fructosamine and glycated albumin, have biases in this population and provide information only on mean glucose exposure. Revolutionary developments in glucose sensing and insulin delivery technology have occurred in the last decade. Newer factory-calibrated continuous glucose monitors provide real-time glucose data, with predictive alarms, allowing improved assessment of glucose excursions and preventive measures, particularly during and between dialysis sessions. Furthermore, integration of continuous glucose monitors and their predictive alerts with automated insulin delivery systems enables insulin administration to be decreased or stopped proactively, leading to improved glycaemic management and diminishing glycaemic fluctuations. While awaiting regulatory approval, emerging studies, expert real-world experience and clinical guidelines support the use of diabetes technology devices in people with diabetes and advanced chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Flexible electrochemical sensors can adhere to any bendable surface with conformal contact, enabling continuous data monitoring without compromising the surface's dynamics. Among various materials that have been explored for flexible electronics, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit dynamic responses to physical and chemical signals, offering new opportunities for flexible electrochemical sensing technologies. This review aims to explore the role of electrocatalysis in MOF films specifically designed for flexible electrochemical sensing applications, with a focus on their design, fabrication techniques, and applications. We systematically categorize the design and fabrication techniques used in preparing MOF films, including in situ growth, layer-by-layer assembly, and polymer-assisted strategies. The implications of MOF-based flexible electrochemical sensors are examined in the context of wearable devices, environmental monitoring, and healthcare diagnostics. Future research is anticipated to shift from traditional microcrystalline powder synthesis to MOF thin-film deposition, which is expected to not only enhance the performance of MOFs in flexible electronics but also improve sensing efficiency and reliability, paving the way for more robust and versatile sensor technologies.

Abstract
Effective continuous glucose monitoring solutions require consistent sensor performance over the lifetime of the device, a manageable variance between devices, and the capability of high volume, low cost production. Here we present a novel and microfabrication-compatible method of depositing and stabilizing enzyme layers on top of planar electrodes that can aid in the mass production of sensors while also improving their consistency. This work is focused on the fragile biorecognition layer as that has been a critical difficulty in the development of microfabricated sensors. We test this approach with glucose oxidase (GOx) and evaluate the sensor performance with amperometric measurements of in vitro glucose concentrations. Spincoating was used to deposit a uniform enzyme layer across a wafer, which was subsequently immobilized via glutaraldehyde vapor crosslinking and patterned via liftoff. This yielded an approximately 300 nm thick sensing layer which was applied to arrays of microfabricated platinum electrodes built on blank wafers. Taking advantage of their planar array format, measurements were then performed in high-throughput parallel instrumentation. Due to their thin structure, the coated electrodes exhibited subsecond stabilization times after the bias potential was applied. The deposited enzyme layers were measured to provide a sensitivity of 2.3 ± 0.2 μA mM-1 mm-2 with suitable saturation behavior and minimal performance shift observed over extended use. The same methodology was then demonstrated directly on top of wireless CMOS potentiostats to build a monolithic sensor with similar measured performance. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of the combination of spincoating and vapor stabilization processes for wafer scale enzymatic sensor functionalization and the potential for scalable fabrication of monolithic sensor-on-CMOS devices.

Abstract
This study introduces the development of a photothermal-based microfluidic paper analytical device (PT-µPAD) integrated with near-field communication (NFC) technology and smartphone readout for enzyme-free glucose quantification in human samples. With the properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) both as a nanozyme and as a photothermal substrate, there is no need for costly reagents like enzymes or a readout instrumentation for the selective and sensitive detection of glucose. In PT-µPADs, AuNPs are etched by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generated from glucose catalysis. Photothermal detection from the plasmonic heating of these AuNPs when illuminated by a 533nm LED light source is achieved by inserting the PT-µPAD sensor into a portable NFC platform suitable for smartphone readout. Temperature variation is directly proportional to the glucose concentration. After optimization, we acquired a linear range between 5.0 and 20.0 µmol L-1 (R2 = 0.9967) and a limit of detection (LOD) of 25.0 nmol L-1 for glucose. Additionally, while our sensor does not utilize any enzyme, it is remarkably selective to glucose with no effects from interferences. Recovery studies in various human control samples indicated a range of 99.73-102.66% with the highest RSD of 3.53%, making it highly accurate and precise. Moreover, our method is more sensitive than other methods relying on conventional µPADs for glucose sensing. By integrating the potential benefits of microfluidics, nanomaterials as nanozymes, and NFC technology for wireless readout, our sensor demonstrates great promise as an accessible, affordable, and shelf-stable device for glucose quantification. Moreover, this concept can be extended to detect other molecules of interest as a point-of-care (POC) diagnostics device.

Abstract
Continuous glucose monitoring is very important to daily blood glucose control in diabetic patients, but its accuracy is limited by the narrow linear range of the response of biosensor to the glucose concentration because of the oxygen starvation in tissue and the limited maximum conversion rate of glucose oxidase. In this work, a biocompatible diffusion limiting membrane based on two medical-grade polyurethanes is developed via blending modification to restrict the diffusion flux of glucose to match the oxygen concentration and the maximum conversion rate. The expansiveness of the linear range for the nanomaterials-modified electrode in the glucose biosensor can be achieved through the regulation of two polyurethanes, the solvent, and the thickness of the membrane. In addition, the mass transport of hydrogen peroxide and interfering substances is also limited of the membrane. The in vitro experiments demonstrated that the membrane-modified microneedle biosensor exhibited a rapid response to the concentration variation of glucose, a wide linear range that is sufficient to cover the blood concentration of healthy and diabetic people, the ability to resist the oxygen concentration fluctuation and interfering substances, good reproducibility and long-term stability. The custom wearable electrochemical system, possessing these characteristics, has been proven to accurately monitor the blood concentration in a living rat in real time. This demonstrates a significant potential for application in both daily and clinical blood glucose monitoring.

Abstract
This work demonstrates the use of jute stick extract as a reducing and stabilizing agent for the synthesis of spherical gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). In UV-Vis spectroscopy, peak at 550 nm was used to confirm the formation of AuNPs. The spherical surface morphology of AuNPs was determined through SEM and TEM analysis. While XRD investigation revealed the crystallinity of the prepared AuNPs. To ensure the biocompatibility of synthesized AuNPs, a bacterial investigation was conducted with negative results towards bacterial strain. The, modified FTO with AuNPs were able to detect glucose in CV analysis and the constructed sensor displayed a wide linear range of 50 μM to 40 mM with a detection limit of 20 μM. Scan rate analysis was performed to determine the charge transfer coefficient (0.42) and Tafel slope (102 mV/decade). Furthermore, the interfacial surface mechanism is illustrated to understand the interaction of glucose with the electrode surface in an alkaline medium and the product formation through the dehydrogenation and hydrolysis process. The prepared sensor also showed good stability, reproducibility, and anti-interference capabilities. In the case of real sample analysis, we used a blood serum sample. A low RSD value (<10 %) suggests the practical use of AuNPs/FTO in real-life applications.

Abstract
Managing diabetes is a chronic challenge today, requiring monitoring and timely insulin injections to maintain stable blood glucose levels. Traditional clinical testing relies on fingertip or venous blood collection, which has facilitated the emergence of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology to address data limitations. Continuous glucose monitoring technology is recognized for tracking long-term blood glucose fluctuations, and its development, particularly in wearable devices, has given rise to compact and portable continuous glucose monitoring devices, which facilitates the measurement of blood glucose and adjustment of medication. This review introduces the development of wearable CGM-based technologies, including noninvasive methods using body fluids and invasive methods using implantable electrodes. The advantages and disadvantages of these approaches are discussed as well as the use of microneedle arrays in minimally invasive CGM. Microneedle arrays allow for painless transdermal puncture and are expected to facilitate the development of wearable CGM devices. Finally, we discuss the challenges and opportunities and look forward to the biomedical applications and future directions of wearable CGM-based technologies in biological research.

Abstract
Wearable microneedle sensors for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) have great potential for clinical impact by allowing access to large data sets to provide individualized treatment plans. To date, their development has been challenged by the accurate wide linear range tracking of interstitial fluid (ISF) glucose (Glu) levels. Here, we present a CGM platform consisting of a three-electrode microneedle electrochemical biosensor and a fully integrated radio-chemical analysis system. The long-term performance of the robust CGM on diabetic rats was achieved by electrodepositing Prussian blue (PB), and crosslinking glucose oxidase (GOx) and chitosan to form a 3D network using glutaraldehyde (GA). After redox by GOx, PB rapidly decomposes hydrogen peroxide and mediates charge transfer, while the 3D network and graphite powder provide enrichment and release sites for Glu and catalytic products, enabling a sensing range of 0.25-35 mM. Microneedle CGM has high sensitivity, good stability, and anti-interference ability. In diabetic rats, CGM can accurately monitor Glu levels in the ISF in real-time, which are highly consistent with levels measured by commercial Glu meters. These results indicate the feasibility and application prospects of the PB-based CGM for the clinical management of diabetes. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This study addresses the challenge of continuous glucose monitoring system design where the narrow linear range of sensing due to the miniaturization of sensors fails to meet the monitoring needs of clinical diabetic patients. This was achieved by utilizing a three-dimensional network of glutaraldehyde cross-linked glucose oxidase and chitosan. The unique topology of the 3D network provides a large number of sites for glucose enrichment and anchors the enzyme to the sensing medium and the conductive substrate through covalent bonding, successfully blocking the escape of the enzyme and the sensing medium and shortening the electron transfer and transmission path.

Abstract
Millions of people worldwide are affected by diabetes, a chronic disease that continuously grows due to abnormal glucose concentration levels present in the blood. Monitoring blood glucose concentrations is therefore an essential diabetes indicator to aid in the management of the disease. Enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensors presently account for the bulk of glucose sensors on the market. However, their disadvantages are that they are expensive and dependent on environmental conditions, hence affecting their performance and sensitivity. To meet the increasing demand, non-enzymatic glucose sensors based on chemically modified electrodes for the direct electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose are a good alternative to the costly enzymatic-based sensors currently on the market, and the research thereof continues to grow. Nanotechnology-based biosensors have been explored for their electronic and mechanical properties, resulting in enhanced biological signaling through the direct oxidation of glucose. Copper oxide and copper sulfide exhibit attractive attributes for sensor applications, due to their non-toxic nature, abundance, and unique properties. Thus, in this review, copper oxide and copper sulfide-based materials are evaluated based on their chemical structure, morphology, and fast electron mobility as suitable electrode materials for non-enzymatic glucose sensors. The review highlights the present challenges of non-enzymatic glucose sensors that have limited their deployment into the market.

Abstract
The present study illustrates the fabrication of a glucose sensing electrode based upon binary composite of copper oxide and mesoporous titanium dioxide on glassy carbon (CuO/TiO2/GCE). The X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray analysis evidently showed the phase pure monoclinic CuO nanoparticles and anatase TiO2. N2 adsorption-desorption analysis verified the mesoporosity in TiO2 with specific surface area greater than 105 m2 g-1. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic analysis proved the remarkable decrease in the charge transfer resistance and facilitation of electron transfer process on the fabricated electrode. The optimum weight ratio of CuO to TiO2 was 1 : 1, and the optimum potential was 0.6 V vs. saturated calomel electrode. The chronoamperometric measurements displayed a detection limit of 1.9 μM, and sensitivities of 186.67 μA mM-1 cm-2 and 90.53 μA mM-1 cm-2 in two linear ranges of 0.05 to 5.2 mM and 5.2 to 20 mM, respectively. The amperometric analysis further showed good reproducibility, high specificity and outstanding stability of the modified electrode.

Abstract
Blood glucose (BG) monitoring is critical for diabetes management. In recent years, microneedle (MN)-based technology has attracted emerging attention in glucose sensing and detection. In this review, we summarized MN-based sampling for glucose collection and glucose analysis in detail. First, different principles of MN-based biofluid extraction were elaborated, including external negative pressure, capillary force, swelling force and iontophoresis, which would guide the shape design and material optimization of MNs. Second, MNs coupled with different analysis approaches, including Raman methods, colorimetry, fluorescence, and electrochemical sensing, were emphasized to exhibit the trend towards highly integrated wearable sensors. Finally, the future development prospects of MN-based devices were discussed.

Abstract
Flexible and stretchable wearable electronic devices have received tremendous attention for their non-invasive and personal health monitoring applications. These devices have been fabricated by integrating flexible substrates and graphene nanostructures for non-invasive detection of physiological risk biomarkers from human bodily fluids, such as sweat, and monitoring of human physical motion tracking parameters. The extraordinary properties of graphene nanostructures in fully integrated wearable devices have enabled improved sensitivity, electronic readouts, signal conditioning and communication, energy harvesting from power sources through electrode design and patterning, and graphene surface modification or treatment. This review explores advances made toward the fabrication of graphene-interfaced wearable sensors, flexible and stretchable conductive graphene electrodes, as well as their potential applications in electrochemical sensors and field-effect-transistors (FETs) with special emphasis on monitoring sweat biomarkers, mainly in glucose-sensing applications. The review emphasizes flexible wearable sweat sensors and provides various approaches thus far employed for the fabrication of graphene-enabled conductive and stretchable micro-nano electrodes, such as photolithography, electron-beam evaporation, laser-induced graphene designing, ink printing, chemical-synthesis and graphene surface modification. It further explores existing graphene-interfaced flexible wearable electronic devices utilized for sweat glucose sensing, and their technological potential for non-invasive health monitoring applications.

Abstract
In this study, nanomaterials capable of enzyme-free glucose quantification and colorimetric readout are integrated into a microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs). Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were utilized as a peroxidase-like nanozyme and a colorimetric probe to achieve glucose monitoring. In this developed device, glucose is oxidized by AuNPs to generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which flows in the paper microchannels toward detection zones. H2O2 then etches the immobilized AgNPs to induce a color change. The intensity of color change is easily monitored using a smartphone application. Following method optimization, we obtained a linear range from 0.50 to 10.0 mmol L-1 (R2 = 0.9921) and a detection limit (LOD) of 340.0 μmol L-1. This falls in the clinically relevant range for glucose monitoring and diabetes diagnosis in humans. In addition, the total analysis time is just 20 min, which is significantly less than the same experiment performed in the solution phase. Also, our method is markedly selective; other substrates do not interfere. The recovery test in human control samples was in the range of 98.47-102.34% and the highest relative standard deviation (RSD) was 3.58%. The enzyme-free approach for glucose sensing is highly desirable for diabetes diagnosis as it replaces the more expensive enzyme with cheaper nanomaterials. Furthermore, since nanomaterials are more environmentally stable compared to enzymes, it has the potential for widespread deployment as point-of-care diagnostics (POC) in resource-limited settings.

Abstract
Continuous monitoring of glucose allows diabetic patients to better maintain blood glucose level by altering insulin dosage or diet according to prevailing glucose values and thus to prevent potential hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia. However, current continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) relies mostly on enzyme electrodes or micro-dialysis probes, which suffer from insufficient stability, susceptibility to corrosion of electrodes, weak or inconsistent correlation, and inevitable interference. A fluorescence-based glucose sensor in the skin will likely be more stable, have improved sensitivity, and can resolve the issues of electrochemical interference from the tissue. This study develops a fluorescent nanodiamond boronic hydrogel system in porous microneedles for CGM. Fluorescent nanodiamond is one of the most photostable fluorophores with superior biocompatibility. When surface functionalized, the fluorescent nanodiamond can integrate with boronic polymer and form a hydrogel, which can produce fluorescent signals in response to environmental glucose concentration. In this proof-of-concept study, the strategy for building a miniatured device with fluorescent nanodiamond hydrogel is developed. The device demonstrates remarkable long-term photo and signal stability in vivo with both small and large animal models. This study presents a new strategy of fluorescence based CGM toward treatment and control of diabetes.

Electrochemical biosensors incorporate a recognition element and an electronic transducer for the highly sensitive detection of analytes in body fluids. Importantly, they can provide rapid readouts and they can be integrated into portable, wearable and implantable devices for point-of-care diagnostics; for example, the personal glucose meter enables at-home assessment of blood glucose levels, greatly improving the management of diabetes. In this Review, we discuss the principles of electrochemical biosensing and the design of electrochemical biosensor devices for health monitoring and disease diagnostics, with a particular focus on device integration into wearable, portable and implantable systems. Finally, we outline the key engineering challenges that need to be addressed to improve sensing accuracy, enable multiplexing and one-step processes, and integrate electrochemical biosensing devices in digital health-care pathways.

Abstract
It is significant for people with diabetes to know their body's real-time glucose level, which can guide the diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to research continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) as it gives us real-time information about our health condition and its dynamic changes. Here, we report a novel hydrogel optical fiber fluorescence sensor segmentally functionalized with fluorescein derivative and CdTe QDs/3-APBA, which can continuously monitor pH and glucose simultaneously. In the glucose detection section, the complexation of PBA and glucose will expand the local hydrogel and decrease the fluorescence of the quantum dots. The fluorescence can be transmitted to the detector by the hydrogel optical fiber in real time. As the complexation reaction and the swelling-deswelling of the hydrogel are all reversible, the dynamic change of glucose concentration can be monitored. For pH detection, the fluorescein attached to another segment of the hydrogel exhibits different protolytic forms when pH changes and the fluorescence changes correspondingly. The significance of pH detection is compensation for pH errors in glucose detection because the reaction between PBA and glucose is sensitive to pH. The emission peaks of the two detection units are 517 nm and 594 nm, respectively, so there is no signal interference between them. The sensor can continuously monitor glucose in 0-20 mM and pH in 5.4-7.8. The advantages of this sensor are multi-parameter simultaneous detection, transmission-detection integration, real-time dynamic detection, and good biocompatibility.

The development of fiber materials has accompanied the evolution of human civilization for centuries. Recent advances in materials science and chemistry offered fibers new applications with various functions, including energy harvesting, energy storing, displaying, health monitoring and treating, and computing. The unique one-dimensional shape of fiber devices endows them advantages to work as human-interfaced electronics due to the small size, lightweight, flexibility, and feasibility for integration into large-scale textile systems. In this review, we first present a discussion of the basics of fiber materials and the design principles of fiber devices, followed by a comprehensive analysis on recently developed fiber devices. Finally, we provide the current challenges facing this field and give an outlook on future research directions. With novel fiber devices and new applications continuing to be discovered after two decades of research, we envision that new fiber devices could have an important impact on our life in the near future.

Abstract
In recent years, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) received huge attention due to their unique properties and potential applicability in different area. Here, we report simple and facile method for the synthesis of GQDs and their functionalization by doping and co-doping using different heteroatom under the optimized conditions. The doping and co-doping of GQDs using boron and nitrogen have been confirmed by FTIR and TEM. The UV-visible and fluorescence techniques have been used to study the optical properties and stability of functionalized GQDs. Further, the screening for enhancement of quantum yields of all GQDs were performed with fluorescence and UV-visible spectra under the optimized conditions. The average QY was obtained as 16.0%, 83.6%, 18.2% and 29.6% for GQDs, B-GQDs, N-GQDs and B,N-GQDs, respectively. The sensor was used to determine paraoxon in water samples. The LOD was observed to be 1.0 × 10-4 M with linearity range of 0.001 to 0.1 M. The RSD was calculated for the developed B,N-GQDs based sensor and observed to be 2.99% with the regression coefficient as 0.997. All the doped, co-doped and un-doped GQDs possess remarkable properties as a fluorescent probe.

Abstract
With the growing need for portable, compact, low-cost, and efficient biosensors, plasmonic materials hold the promise to meet this need owing to their label-free sensitivity and deep light-matter interaction that can go beyond the diffraction limit of light. In this review, we shed light on the main physical aspects of plasmonic interactions, highlight mainstream and future plasmonic materials including their merits and shortcomings, describe the backbone substrates for building plasmonic biosensors, and conclude with a brief discussion of the factors affecting plasmonic biosensing mechanisms. To do so, we first observe that 2D materials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides play a major role in enhancing the sensitivity of nanoparticle-based plasmonic biosensors. Then, we identify that titanium nitride is a promising candidate for integrated applications with performance comparable to that of gold. Our study highlights the emerging role of polymer substrates in the design of future wearable and point-of-care devices. Finally, we summarize some technical and economic challenges that should be addressed for the mass adoption of plasmonic biosensors. We believe this review will be a guide in advancing the implementation of plasmonics-based integrated biosensors.

Abstract
Continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGMS) are becoming increasingly popular in diabetes management compared to conventional methods of self-blood glucose monitoring systems. They help understanding physiological responses towards nutrition intake, physical activities in everyday life and glucose control. CGMS available in market are of two types based on their working principle. Needle type systems with few weeks lifespan (e.g., enzyme-based Freestyle Libre) and implant type system (e.g., fluorescence-based Senseonics) with few months of lifespan are commercially available. An alternate to both working methods, herein, we propose electromagnetic-based sensor that can be subcutaneously implanted and capable of tracking minute changes in dielectric permittivity owing to changes in blood glucose level (BGL). Proof-of-concept of proposed electromagnetic-based implant sensor has been validated in intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) conducted on swine and beagle in a controlled environment. Sensor interface modules, mobile applications, and glucose mapping algorithms are also developed for continuous measurement in a freely moving beagle during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The results of the short-term (1 h, IVGTT) and long-term (52 h, OGTT) test are summarized in this work. A close trend is observed between sensor frequency and BGL during GTT experiments on both animal species.

Abstract
Implantable glucose biosensors provide real-time information about blood glucose fluctuations, but their utility and accuracy are time-limited due to the foreign body response (FBR) following their insertion beneath the skin. The slow release of nitric oxide (NO), a gasotransmitter with inflammation regulatory properties, from a sensor surface has been shown to dramatically improve sensors' analytical biocompatibility by reducing the overall FBR response. Indeed, work in a porcine model suggests that as long as the implants (sensors) continue to release NO, even at low levels, the inflammatory cell infiltration and resulting collagen density are lessened. While these studies strongly support the benefits of NO release in mitigating the FBR, the mechanisms through which exogenous NO acts on the surrounding tissue, especially under the condition of hyperglycemia, remain vague. Such knowledge would inform strategies to refine appropriate NO dosage and release kinetics for optimal therapeutic activity. In this study, we evaluated mediator, immune cell, and mRNA expression profiles in the local tissue microenvironment surrounding implanted sensors as a function of NO release, diabetes, and implantation duration. A custom porcine wound healing-centric multiplex gene array was developed for nanoString barcoding analysis. Tissues adjacent to sensors with sustained NO release abrogated the implant-induced acute and chronic FBR through modulation of the tissue-specific immune chemokine and cytokine microenvironment, resulting in decreased cellular recruitment, proliferation, and activation at both the acute (7-d) and chronic (14-d) phases of the FBR. Further, we found that sustained NO release abrogated the implant-induced acute and chronic foreign body response through modulation of mRNA encoding for key immunological signaling molecules and pathways, including STAT1 and multiple STAT1 targets including MAPK14, IRAK4, MMP2, and CXCL10. The condition of diabetes promoted a more robust FBR to the implants, which was also controlled by sustained NO release.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Sympathetic stimulation is known to be associated with transient alterations of blood glucose (BG) concentration; spaceflight acceleration may be similarly associated with alterations of BG, potentially posing a risk to diabetic individuals engaging in future spaceflight
activities. Despite prior studies demonstrating diabetic subjects’ tolerance to centrifuge-simulated spaceflight, data are lacking regarding blood glucose response to hypergravity. It remains unclear whether hypergravity or associated physiological response may pose a risk to diabetics.
Continuous glucose monitors (CGM) offer a means of noninvasive glucose monitoring and may be useful in spaceflight and analog environments. Here, we describe the results of continuous glucose monitoring during centrifuge-simulated spaceflight.METHODS: Subjects participated in 1–5
centrifuge-simulated spaceflight profiles (maximum +4.0 Gz, +6.0 Gx, 6.1 G resultant). Data collection included heart rate, blood pressure, electrocardiogram, continuous glucose via CGM, intermittent fingerstick BG, and postrun questionnaires regarding symptoms related
to hypergravity exposure.RESULTS: CGM data were collected from 26 subjects, including 4 diabetics. While diabetic subjects had significantly higher BG compared to nondiabetics, this was not associated with any difference in symptoms or tolerance. Transient hypergravity-associated
CGM glucose alterations did not affect tolerance of the centrifuge experience. CGM data were found to be reliable with occasional exceptions, including four instances of false critical low glucose alarms.DISCUSSION: While further study is necessary to better characterize CGM fidelity
during hypergravity and other spaceflight-related stressors, CGM may be a feasible option for spaceflight and analog settings. As in prior studies, individuals with well-controlled diabetes appear able to tolerate the accelerations anticipated for commercial spaceflight.Ong KM, Rossitto

Abstract
Traditional bone replacement materials have been developed with the goal of directing the osteogenesis of osteoblastic cell lines toward differentiation and therefore achieving biomaterial-mediated osteogenesis, but the osteogenic effect has been disappointing. With advances in bone biology, it has been revealed that the local immune microenvironment has an important role in regulating the bone formation process. According to the bone immunology hypothesis, the immune system and the skeletal system are inextricably linked, with many cytokines and regulatory factors in common, and immune cells play an essential role in bone-related physiopathological processes. This review combines advances in bone immunology with biomaterial immunomodulatory properties to provide an overview of biomaterials-mediated immune responses to regulate bone regeneration, as well as methods to assess the bone immunomodulatory properties of bone biomaterials and how these strategies can be used for future bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Developing techniques to effectively and real-time monitor and regulate the interior environment of biological objects is significantly important for many biomedical engineering and scientific applications, including drug delivery, electrophysiological recording and regulation of intracellular activities. Semi-implantable bioelectronics is currently a hot spot in biomedical engineering research area, because it not only meets the increasing technical demands for precise detection or regulation of biological activities, but also provides a desirable platform for externally incorporating complex functionalities and electronic integration. Although there is less definition and summary to distinguish it from the well-reviewed non-invasive bioelectronics and fully implantable bioelectronics, semi-implantable bioelectronics have emerged as highly unique technology to boost the development of biochips and smart wearable device. Here, we reviewed the recent progress in this field and raised the concept of "Semi-implantable bioelectronics", summarizing the principle and strategies of semi-implantable device for cell applications and in vivo applications, discussing the typical methodologies to access to intracellular environment or in vivo environment, biosafety aspects and typical applications. This review is meaningful for understanding in-depth the design principles, materials fabrication techniques, device integration processes, cell/tissue penetration methodologies, biosafety aspects, and applications strategies that are essential to the development of future minimally invasive bioelectronics.

Functional Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Composites for Ligament Reconstructions and Their Targeted Applications in the Restoration of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14112189. [PMID: 35683861 PMCID: PMC9182730 DOI: 10.3390/polym14112189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2022] [Revised: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The selection of biomaterials as biomedical implants is a significant challenge. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and composites of such kind have been extensively used in medical implants, notably in the bearings of the hip, knee, and other joint prostheses, owing to its biocompatibility and high wear resistance. For the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) graft, synthetic UHMWPE is an ideal candidate due to its biocompatibility and extremely high tensile strength. However, significant problems are observed in UHMWPE based implants, such as wear debris and oxidative degradation. To resolve the issue of wear and to enhance the life of UHMWPE as an implant, in recent years, this field has witnessed numerous innovative methodologies such as biofunctionalization or high temperature melting of UHMWPE to enhance its toughness and strength. The surface functionalization/modification/treatment of UHMWPE is very challenging as it requires optimizing many variables, such as surface tension and wettability, active functional groups on the surface, irradiation, and protein immobilization to successfully improve the mechanical properties of UHMWPE and reduce or eliminate the wear or osteolysis of the UHMWPE implant. Despite these difficulties, several surface roughening, functionalization, and irradiation processing technologies have been developed and applied in the recent past. The basic research and direct industrial applications of such material improvement technology are very significant, as evidenced by the significant number of published papers and patents. However, the available literature on research methodology and techniques related to material property enhancement and protection from wear of UHMWPE is disseminated, and there is a lack of a comprehensive source for the research community to access information on the subject matter. Here we provide an overview of recent developments and core challenges in the surface modification/functionalization/irradiation of UHMWPE and apply these findings to the case study of UHMWPE for ACL repair.

Abstract
In this study, Ag@In2O3 modified nickel foam (NF) was reported for its role as a non-enzymatic glucose sensor. Ag@In2O3 was prepared by a simple two-step method; preparation of a metal-organic framework (MOF) MIL-68(In) by solvothermal method, entrapment of Ag + by adding AgNO3 then drying it for 2 h to complete the entrapment process and subsequent calcination at 650°C for 3 h. The Ag@In2O3 modified NF was employed as a non-enzymatic glucose sensor to determine glucose concentrations in an alkaline medium. Two linear ranges were obtained from Ag@In2O3 modified electrode, i.e., 10 μM to 0.8 mM and 0.8–2.16 mM with a sensitivity of 3.31 mA mM−1 cm−2 and 1.51 mA mM−1 cm−2 respectively, with a detection limit of 0.49 µM. Ag@In2O3 modified NF exhibited high selectivity for glucose, among other interfering agents.

Abstract
Biofuel cell (BFC) that transfers chemical energy into electricity is a promising candidate as an energy-harvesting device for implantable electronics. However, there still remain major challenges for implantable BFCs, including bulky and rigid device structure mismatching with soft tissues such as the brain, and the power output decreases due to the fouling process in a biological environment. Here, a flexible and anti-biofouling fiber BFC working in the brain chronically is developed. The fiber BFC is based on a carbon nanotube fiber electrode to possess small size and flexibility. A hydrophilic zwitterionic anti-biofouling polydopamine-2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine layer is designed on the surface of fiber BFC to resist the nonspecific protein adsorption in a complex biological environment. After implantation, the fiber BFC can achieve a stable device/tissue interface, along with a negligible immune response. The fiber BFC has first realized power generation in the mouse brain for over a month, exhibiting its promising prospect as an energy-harvesting device in vivo.

Abstract
Flexible implantable medical devices (IMDs) are an emerging technology that may substantially improve the disease treatment efficacy and quality of life of patients. While many advancements have been achieved in IMDs, the constantly straining application conditions impose extra requirements for the packaging material, which needs to retain both high stretchability and high water resistivity under dynamic strains in a physiological environment. This work reports a polyisobutylene (PIB) blend-based elastomer that simultaneously offers a tissue-like elastic modulus and excellent water resistivity under dynamic strains. The PIB blend is a homogeneous mixture of two types of PIB molecules with distinct molecular weights. The blend achieved an optimal Young's modulus of 62 kPa, matching those of soft biological tissues. The PIB blend film also exhibited an extremely low water permittivity of 1.6-2.9 g m-2 day-1, from unstrained to 50% strain states. The combination of high flexibility and dynamic water resistivity was tested using triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs). The PIB blend-packaged TENG was able to stably operate in water for 2 weeks, substantially surpassing the protection offered by Ecoflex. This work offered a promising material solution for packaging flexible IMDs to achieve stable performance in a strained physiological environment.

Abstract
Glucose-sensing photonic crystals are promising for the significant advance of continuous glucose monitoring systems due to the naked-eye colorimetric readouts and noninvasive detection of diabetes, but the long response time hampers their practical applications. Here, for the first time probes of photonic nanochains (PNCs) are demonstrated that are capable of continuously and reversibly sensing glucose concentration ([glucose]) variation within seconds by color change without power consumption, much faster by 2-3 orders of magnitude than previous ones. They are comprised of 1D equidistant arrays of magnetic nanoparticles enveloped by tens-of-nanometer-thick phenylboronic acid-functionalized hydrogels, and fabricated by developing selective concentration polymerization of monomers in binary microheterogeneous solvents of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and H2 O. In this process, both 3-acrylamido phenylboronic acid (AAPBA) and N-2-hydroxyethyl acrylamide (HEAAm) are preferentially dissolved in the small volume of free DMSO concentrated in the vicinity of poly vinylpyrrolidone coated Fe3 O4 colloidal nanoparticles (Fe3 O4 @PVP), yielding Fe3 O4 @PVP@poly(AAPBA-co-HEAAm) PNCs after UV irradiation under magnetic field. The PNCs in phosphate buffered solution have a wavelength-shift range up to 130 nm when [glucose] changes from 0 to 20 × 10-3 m. The results can facilitate real-time glucose monitoring and provide an alternative to produce functional organic-inorganic nanostructures.

Abstract
Sensors capable of accurate, continuous monitoring of biochemistry are crucial to the realization of personalized medicine on a large scale. Great strides have been made to enhance tissue compatibility of long-term in vivo biosensors using biomaterials strategies such as tissue-integrating hydrogels. However, the low level of oxygen in tissue presents a challenge for implanted devices, especially when the biosensing function relies on oxygen as a measure-either as a primary analyte or as an indirect marker to transduce levels of other biomolecules. This work presents a method of fabricating inorganic-organic interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogels to optimize the oxygen transport through injectable biosensors. Capitalizing on the synergy between the two networks, various physicochemical properties (e.g., swelling, glass transition temperature, and mechanical properties) are shown to be independently adjustable while maintaining a 250% increase in oxygen permeability relative to poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) controls. Finally, these gels, when functionalized with a Pd(II) benzoporphyrin phosphor, track tissue oxygen in real time for 76 days as subcutaneous implants in a porcine model while promoting tissue ingrowth and minimizing fibrosis around the implant. These findings support IPN networks for fine-tuned design of implantable biomaterials in personalized medicine and other biomedical applications.

Abstract
Capsule and capsule contracture around implants are important concerns in a clinic. The physical topology of the material surface regulates the formation of the capsule, but the specific regulatory mechanism is unclear. In this study, four types of silicone implant materials with different microgroove structures (groove depths of 10 and 50 μm and widths of 50 and 200 μm) were constructed using lithography to form different gradient surface topologies. Mass spectrometry, Cell Counting Kit-8, 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxycytidine (EdU), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, western blot, immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry were used to explore the changes in protein adsorption, cell adhesion, cell proliferation, and collagen deposition on the surface of the materials. At the same time, RNA-seq was used to detect transcriptome differences caused by different structures. Furthermore, collagen deposition and capsule formation were observed in the rats. The groove structure was observed to significantly increase the surface roughness of the material. The deeper groove and the narrower width of the polydimethylsiloxane would increase the surface roughness of the material and the surface water contact angle but reduce the total amount of adsorbed protein in the first two hours. In vitro cell experiments revealed that microtopology affected cell proliferation and adhesion and regulated collagen secretion. Further analysis indicated the deeper and narrower groove (group 50–50) on the surface of the material caused more evident collagen deposition around the material, forming a thicker envelope. Surface roughness of the material was thus related to collagen deposition and envelope thickness. The thickness of the envelope tissue around smooth materials does not exceed that of the materials with surface roughness. In conclusion, the narrower and deeper grooves in the micron range exhibited poor histocompatibility and led to formation of thicker envelopes around the materials. The appropriate grooves can reduce envelope thickness.

Abstract
Herein, state-of-the-art research advances in South Korea regarding the development of chemical sensing materials and fully integrated Internet of Things (IoT) sensing platforms were comprehensively reviewed for verifying the applicability of such sensing systems in point-of-care testing (POCT). Various organic/inorganic nanomaterials were synthesized and characterized to understand their fundamental chemical sensing mechanisms upon exposure to target analytes. Moreover, the applicability of nanomaterials integrated with IoT-based signal transducers for the real-time and on-site analysis of chemical species was verified. In this review, we focused on the development of noble nanostructures and signal transduction techniques for use in IoT sensing platforms, and based on their applications, such systems were classified into gas sensors, ion sensors, and biosensors. A future perspective for the development of chemical sensors was discussed for application to next-generation POCT systems that facilitate rapid and multiplexed screening of various analytes.

Abstract
The demand of glucose monitoring devices and even of updated guidelines for the management of diabetic patients is dramatically increasing due to the progressive rise in the prevalence of diabetes mellitus and the need to prevent its complications. Even though the introduction of the first glucose sensor occurred decades ago, important advances both from the technological and clinical point of view have contributed to a substantial improvement in quality healthcare. This review aims to bring together purely technological and clinical aspects of interest in the field of glucose devices by proposing a roadmap in glucose monitoring and management of patients with diabetes. Also, it prospects other biological fluids to be examined as further options in diabetes care, and suggests, throughout the technology innovation process, future directions to improve the follow-up, treatment, and clinical outcomes of patients.

Abstract
As diabetes prevalence is continuously increasing, better management is needed to achieve blood glucose control, in order to prevent complications and lessen the burden of this disease. Since the first measurement of glycosuria at the beginning of the 1900s', huge advances were made in monitoring glycemia. Continuous glucose monitoring systems revolutionized diabetes management, especially for patients with type 1 diabetes. Avoiding glycemic variability and maintaining optimal glycemic control is crucial for the evolution of patients with type 1 diabetes. The usefulness of glycemic monitoring devices can be extended to patients with type 2 diabetes. It is also important to note that in those patients at risk of developing high glycemic variability (e.g. patients with advanced chronic kidney disease), continuous glycemic monitoring may improve their prognosis. These monitoring systems can be classified according to the analytical method, the degree of invasiveness, the data availability and the mode of usage. The technology is constantly improving in bioanalytical performance, biocompatibility, length of wearing time, safety and clinical features. The aim of this review was to briefly present the main characteristics of glucose biosensors, glucose monitoring systems and their clinically utility.

Abstract
![]()
Glucose bio-sensing
technologies have received increasing attention
in the last few decades, primarily due to the fundamental role that
glucose metabolism plays in diseases (e.g., diabetes). Molecularly
imprinted polymers (MIPs) could offer an alternative means of analysis
to a field that is traditionally dominated by enzyme-based devices,
posing superior chemical stability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of
fabrication. Their integration into sensing devices as recognition
elements has been extensively studied with different readout methods
such as quartz-crystal microbalance or impedance spectroscopy. In
this work, a dummy imprinting approach is introduced, describing the
synthesis
and optimization of a MIP toward the sensing of glucose. Integration
of this polymer into a thermally conductive receptor layer was achieved
by micro-contact deposition. In essence, the MIP particles are pressed
into a polyvinyl chloride adhesive layer using a polydimethylsiloxane
stamp. The prepared layer is then evaluated with the so-called heat-transfer
method, allowing the determination of the specificity and the sensitivity
of the receptor layer. Furthermore, the selectivity was assessed by
analyzing the thermal response after infusion with increasing concentrations
of different saccharide analogues in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS).
The obtained results show a linear range of the sensor of 0.0194–0.3300
mM for the detection of glucose in PBS. Finally, a potential application
of the sensor was demonstrated by exposing the receptor layer to increasing
concentrations of glucose in human urine samples, demonstrating a
linear range of 0.0444–0.3300 mM. The results obtained in this
paper highlight the applicability of the sensor both in terms of non-invasive
glucose monitoring and for the analysis of food samples.

Abstract
There is a growing demand to realize low-cost miniaturized point-of-care testing diagnostic devices capable of performing many analytical assays. To fabricate such devices, three-dimensional printing (3DP) based fabrication technique provides a turnkey approach with remarkable precision and accuracy. Herein, 3DP fabrication technique was successfully utilized to fabricate closed bipolar electrode-based Electrochemiluminescence devices using conductive graphene filament. Further, using these ECL devices, Ru (bpy)3 2+ /TPrA and Luminol/H2 O2 based electrochemistry was leveraged to sense dopamine and choline respectively. For ECL signal capturing, two distinct approaches were used, first a smartphone-based miniaturized platform and the second with a photomultiplier tube (PMT) embedded with the Internet of Things technology. Choline sensing led to a linear range 5 μM to 700 μM and 30 μM to 700 μM with limit of detection (LOD) of 1.25 μM (R2 = 0.98, N = 3) and 3.27 μM (R2 = 0.97, N = 3). Further, dopamine sensing was achieved in a linear range of 0.5 μM to 100 μM with LOD = 2 μM (R2 = 0.99, N = 3) and LOD = 0.33 μM (R2 = 0.98, N = 3). Overall, the fabricated devices have the potential to be utilized effectively in real-time applications such as point-of-care testing.

Abstract
Implantable insulin infusion systems using the intra-peritoneal route have dramatically changed the management of diabetes paving the way toward the realization of the potential "holy grail" of a fully implantable artificial pancreas. However, the wear duration of delivery catheters is compromised by the foreign body-mediated immune response. Both occlusion material present at the distal catheter tip end and fibrotic encapsulation surrounding the catheters influence the controlled and precise delivery of insulin, which eventually leads to the need for surgical intervention. The novel part of the current work is the investigation of the roles of implant physical properties (catheter size and tip configuration), as well as local inflammation control (through utilization of an anti-inflammatory agent) on the host fibrotic response using a previously developed animal model. The cellular and molecular response, the medication delivery efficacy as well as the ability to flush the catheters were examined and further compared among the different mitigation strategies. Reduction in catheter size as well as tuning the tip configuration from a cone shape to a round shape showed delayed host recognition and delayed propagation of the fibrotic response. However, the round shaped tips had an increased occurrence of lumen occlusion as a result of flow change. It became apparent that changing the physical properties of the catheters was not a long-term solution to catheter obstructions caused by the foreign body reaction. In comparison, control of the local inflammatory response through the use of an anti-inflammatory agent demonstrated a promising strategy for maintenance of catheter functionality without any type of obstructions. These finding will have a large impact toward the development of long-term use catheters for continuous intraperitoneal insulin infusion.

Abstract
Enzymes have been incorporated into a wide variety of fields and industries as they catalyze many biochemical and chemical reactions. The immobilization of enzymes on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for generating nano biocatalysts with high stability and reusability is gaining great attention among researchers. Functionalized CNTs act as excellent support for effective enzyme immobilization. Depending on the application, the enzymes can be tailored using the various surface functionalization techniques on the CNTs to extricate the desirable characteristics. Aiming at the preparation of efficient, stable, and recyclable nanobiocatalysts, this review provides an overview of the methods developed to immobilize the various enzymes. Various applications of carbon nanotube-based biocatalysts in water purification, bioremediation, biosensors, and biofuel cells have been comprehensively reviewed.

Abstract
Imbalance of oxidants is a universal contributor to the failure of implanted devices and tissues. A sustained oxidative environment leads to cytotoxicity, prolonged inflammation, and ultimately host rejection of implanted devices/grafts. The incorporation of antioxidant materials can inhibit this redox/inflammatory cycle and enhance implant efficacy. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CONP) is a highly promising agent that exhibits potent, ubiquitous, and self-renewable antioxidant properties. Integrating CONP as surface coatings provides ease in translating antioxidant properties to various implants/grafts. Herein, we describe the formation of CONP coatings, generated via the sequential deposition of CONP and alginate, and the impact of coating properties, pH, and polymer molecular weight, on their resulting redox profile. Investigation of CONP deposition, layer formation, and coating uniformity/thickness on their resulting oxidant scavenging activity identified key parameters for customizing global antioxidant properties. Results found lower molecular weight alginates and physiological pH shift CONP activity to a higher H2O2 to O2 --scavenging capability. The antioxidant properties measured for these various coatings translated to distinct antioxidant protection to the underlying encapsulated cells. Information gained from this work can be leveraged to tailor coatings towards specific oxidant-scavenging applications and prolong the function of medical devices and cellular implants.

Abstract
An electrochemical non-enzymatic sensor based on a NiVP/Pi material was developed for the selective and sensitive determination of glucose. The novel sensor showed a high sensitivity of 6.04 mA μM-1 cm-2 with a lowest detection limit of 3.7 nM in a wide detection range of 100 nM-10 mM. The proposed sensor exhibited a superior selectivity without any interference from the oxygen evolution reaction during glucose sensing. We also found that this glucose sensor showed negligible interference from various interferents, such as ascorbic acid, uric acid, dopamine and sodium chloride. Additionally, a novel flexible sensor was developed by coating the NiVP/Pi over Whatman filter paper, which exhibited two linear ranges of 100 nM to 1 μM and 100 μM to 10 mM with an ultra-sensitivity of 1.130 mA μM-1 cm-2 and 0.746 mA μM-1 cm-2, respectively, in 0.1 M NaOH. The proposed sensor was tested with human blood serum samples demonstrating its practical application. Our findings provide a new route by fine tuning the composition of nickel and vanadium that sheds new light on better understanding the processes. This NiVP/Pi-based sensor offers a new approach towards the electrochemical detection of glucose, enabling glucose monitoring in a convenient way.

Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus is a group of diseases characterized by high blood glucose levels due to patients' inability to produce sufficient insulin. Current interventions often require implants that can detect and correct high blood glucose levels with minimal patient intervention. However, these implantable technologies have not reached their full potential in vivo due to the foreign body response and subsequent development of fibrosis. Therefore, for long-term function of implants, modulating the initial immune response is crucial in preventing the activation and progression of the immune cascade. This review discusses the different molecular mechanisms and cellular interactions involved in the activation and progression of foreign body response (FBR) and fibrosis, specifically for implants used in diabetes. We also highlight the various strategies and techniques that have been used for immunomodulation and prevention of fibrosis. We investigate how these general strategies have been applied to implants used for the treatment of diabetes, offering insights on how these devices can be further modified to circumvent FBR and fibrosis.
