How do Polymer-derived Implants Influence Patient-Reported Outcomes (PRO) in Cardiovascular and Orthopaedic Procedures
Abstract: Implants derived from polymers have surfaced as adaptable substitutes for conventional metallic devices in cardiovascular and orthopedic treatments because of their adjustable mechanical characteristics, biocompatibility, radiolucency, and ability for surface alteration. This systematic review assesses the impact of polymer-based implants such as PEEK, UHMWPE, bioresorbable polymer scaffolds, and drug-eluting systems on outcomes reported by patients (PROs). Findings from 42 qualifying studies show overall positive impacts on pain alleviation, functional recovery, …

AI-Driven Inverse Design of Functionally Graded Bio-Nanocomposites for Sustainable High-Barrier Packaging
Abstract: Multilayer plastic packaging realizes high barrier performance through laminated heterogeneous structures, but the heterogeneous structure has severe end-of-life challenges caused by the interfacial incompatibility of materials and the poor recyclability. This study proposes the inverse design of functionally graded PLA-nanoclay composite films by reinforcement learning as a monolithic alternative to traditional multilayer systems. Twin-screw extrusion is designed as a continuous control Markov decision process, and proximal policy optimization (PPO) is …
