Wearable forehead patch tracks brain-water shifts during sleep at home
A soft, wireless NIRS forehead patch tracked water-sensitive brain signals during 16 overnight home sleep recordings in four healthy men. The signals changed with EEG/EOG-defined sleep stages, suggesting a new way to study sleep-linked brain-fluid dynamics, although the device did not directly measure CSF flow or glymphatic clearance.

New microparticles improve biofilm removal from wounds and surgical instruments
Newly developed microparticles can infiltrate stubborn bacterial matrices and release tiny oxygen bubbles to clean surfaces and wounds more efficiently than hydrogen peroxide or other cleaning agents alone, researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign report.
