The global energy crisis, characterized by shortages of fossil fuels, increasing energy needs, and climate change, requires sustainable energy solutions. Renewable energy technologies provide important options to reduce GHG emission and improve energy security. In developing nations, the use of traditional biomass-fueled cooking stoves contributes to environmental damage, deforestation, and health problems.

Article Synopsis
  • Plexiform schwannoma is a rare benign tumor that usually appears in young adults, affecting areas like the trunk, head, neck, and extremities, and is typically under 2 cm in size.
  • * The tumor is characterized by a plexiform growth pattern and multinodularity, which can make it look similar to plexiform neurofibroma, a tumor with higher risks of recurrence and malignancy.
  • * A case study discusses a 14-year-old girl with an 11 cm mass on her foot that was diagnosed as plexiform schwannoma through histological evaluation and strong S-100 immunostaining.

Background: Viral load assessment is the preferred method for diagnosing and confirming virologic failure for patients on antiretroviral therapy. This study aimed to assess the proportion of viral load suppression and identify associated factors among HIV-positive patients receiving antiretroviral therapy at the Pokhara academy of health science in Nepal.

Methods: This institution-based retrospective cohort study was conducted at Pokhara academy of health science in Pokhara, Nepal.

Introduction And Importance: Cutaneous Squamous cell carcinoma(cSCC) represents approximately 16% of scalp tumors. Overall, cSCC is significantly more common in the oropharyngeal mucosa than the skin. Smoking is a risk factor for mucosal lesions, risk factors for developing cutaneous SCC include age, ultraviolet light exposure, chronic scarring, history of ionizing radiation, androgenetic alopecia (in men), and immunosuppression.

Fluorescence microscopy assays enable the investigation of endogenous biomolecular condensates directly in their cellular context. With appropriate experimental designs, these assays yield quantitative information on condensate material properties and inform on biophysical mechanisms of condensate formation. Single-molecule super-resolution and tracking experiments grant access to the smallest condensates and early condensation stages not resolved by conventional imaging approaches.
