Artificial intelligence of health-enabled spaces
\"Artificial Intelligence of Health-Enabled Spaces (AIoH) has made revolutionary advances in clinical studies that we know so far. Among these advances, intelligent and medical services are gaining lots of interest. Nowadays, AI-powered technologies are not only used in saving lives, but also in our daily life activities in diagnosing, controlling, and even tracking of COVID-19 patients. The AI-powered solutions are expected to communicate with cellular networks smoothly in the next generation networks (5G/6G and beyond) for more effective/critical medical applications. This will open the door for another interesting research areas. This book focuses on the development and analysis of Artificial Intelligence (AI) models applications across multi-disciplines. AI based deep learning models, fuzzy and hybrid intelligent systems, and intrinsic explainable model are also being presented in this book. Some of the fields considered in this smart health-oriented book includes AI applications in Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Computer Engineering, Education, Cyber Security, Chemistry, Pharmacy, Molecular Biology, and Tourism. This book is dedicated to addressing the major challenges in fighting diseases and psychological issues using AI. Challenges vary from cost and complexity to availability and accuracy. The aim of this book is hence to focus on both the design and implementation aspects of the AI-based approaches in proposed health-related solutions. Targeted readers are from varying disciplines who are interested in implementing the smart planet/environments vision via intelligent enabling technologies\"-- Provided by publisher.

Cellulose and its derivatives: towards biomedical applications
Cellulose is the most abundant polysaccharide on Earth. It can be obtained from a vast number of sources, e.g. cell walls of wood and plants, some species of bacteria, and algae, as well as tunicates, which are the only known cellulose-containing animals. This inherent abundance naturally paves the way for discovering new applications for this versatile material. This review provides an extensive survey on cellulose and its derivatives, their structural and biochemical properties, with an overview of applications in tissue engineering, wound dressing, and drug delivery systems. Based on the available means of selecting the physical features, dimensions, and shapes, cellulose exists in the morphological forms of fiber, microfibril/nanofibril, and micro/nanocrystalline cellulose. These different cellulosic particle types arise due to the inherent diversity among the source of organic materials or due to the specific conditions of biosynthesis and processing that determine the consequent geometry and dimension of cellulosic particles. These different cellulosic particles, as building blocks, produce materials of different microstructures and properties, which are needed for numerous biomedical applications. Despite having great potential for applications in various fields, the extensive use of cellulose has been mainly limited to industrial use, with less early interest towards the biomedical field. Therefore, this review highlights recent developments in the preparation methods of cellulose and its derivatives that create novel properties benefiting appropriate biomedical applications.

Advances in preparation and application of antibacterial hydrogels
Bacterial infections, especially those caused by drug-resistant bacteria, have seriously threatened human life and health. There is urgent to develop new antibacterial agents to reduce the problem of antibiotics. Biomedical materials with good antimicrobial properties have been widely used in antibacterial applications. Among them, hydrogels have become the focus of research in the field of biomedical materials due to their unique three-dimensional network structure, high hydrophilicity, and good biocompatibility. In this review, the latest research progresses about hydrogels in recent years were summarized, mainly including the preparation methods of hydrogels and their antibacterial applications. According to their different antibacterial mechanisms, several representative antibacterial hydrogels were introduced, such as antibiotics loaded hydrogels, antibiotic-free hydrogels including metal-based hydrogels, antibacterial peptide and antibacterial polymers, stimuli-responsive smart hydrogels, and light-mediated hydrogels. In addition, we also discussed the applications and challenges of antibacterial hydrogels in biomedicine, which are expected to provide new directions and ideas for the application of hydrogels in clinical antibacterial therapy.
