Researchers have developed two tiny magnetic robots that can work together inside the body to target dangerous heart infections. The approach is intended to avoid invasive surgery. If successful, it could offer a less disruptive way to treat these conditions.

Context

1 paragraph under 90 words measured analysis possible impact on society — who affected and how, framed reasoned perspective could/may, never fact, no political advocacy. Need no specifics beyond. We can say patients with dangerous heart infections, clinicians, caregivers. If successful, may reduce need for invasive operations, could shorten recovery? That's inventing? "less disruptive" implies maybe less recovery burden. But avoid specifics. Could say "could affect patients facing dangerous heart infections and the clinicians who treat them. If the robots work as intended, treatment may become less physically disruptive than surgery, potentially reducing some burdens on patients and health systems. However, impact depends on future evidence, safety, and access; these remain uncertain." That's under 90. No political. Good. Need output ONLY two labeled sections. Exactly format: EXPANDED: ... CONTEXT: ... No extra. Ensure no bullet. Need maybe "EXPANDED:" and "CONTEXT:" labels. Good. Ne
