Abdominal hernias are common issues in the clinical setting, burdening millions of patients worldwide. Associated with pain, decreased quality life, and severe potential complications, abdominal wall should be treated as soon possible. Whether an open repair or laparoscopic surgical approach is tackled, mesh reinforcement generally required to ensure a durable hernia repair. Over years, numerous products have been made available on market settings, yet each currently used meshes presents certain limitations that reflect treatment outcomes. Thus, development still ongoing, emerging solutions reached various testing stages. In this regard, paper aims establish up-to-date framework meshes, briefly overviewing for discussing detail most recent advances field. Particularly, there presented developments lightweight materials, improved attachment, antimicrobial fabrics, composite hybrid textiles, performant designs, followed by systematic review recently completed trials.

The traditional biocatalytic precipitation (BCP) strategy often required the participation of H2O2, but H2O2 had problem self-decomposition, which prevented its application in quantitative analysis. This work first found that a bimetallic single-atom catalyst (Co/Zn–N–C SAC) could effectively activate dissolved O2 to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) due superior oxidase (OXD)-like activity. Experimental investigations demonstrated Co/Zn–N–C SAC preferred highly active hydroxyl radicals (•OH), oxidized 3-amino-9-ethyl carbazole (AEC) reddish-brown insoluble precipitates. Based on this property, unique oxygen-activated photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor was developed for chloramphenicol (CAP) detection. Cesium platinum bromide nanocrystals (Cs2PtBr6 NCs) were new type halide perovskite with lead-free, narrow band gaps, and water-oxygen resistance. Cs2PtBr6 NCs showed excellent cathodal PEC performance without an exogenous coreactant used As "proof-of-concept application", introduced onto surface by using CAP dual-aptamer sandwich strategy. activated ROS, AEC precipitates, quenching signal In summary, overcome restriction enzymatic BCP requiring improved stability accuracy analysis, also broadened range coreactant-free perovskite-type biosensors.
