Background And Aims: Invasive fungal diseases (IFD) in children with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) are poorly characterized, especially in lower-middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aims to identify the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of IFD in a pediatric cohort with ALL/LBL.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed pediatric patients diagnosed with ALL/LBL between January and December 2023 at a tertiary cancer center in India.

Background: Physician attire on social media impacts patient perceptions of professionalism, competency, and trustworthiness. Plastic surgeons have rapidly adopted social media for educating and recruiting patients. Although social media is increasingly integrated into plastic surgery practice, there is little data on the attire surgeons portray themselves in online.

We conducted a comprehensive study of the non-equilibrium dynamics of Cooper pair breaking, quasiparticle (QP) generation, and relaxation in niobium (Nb) cut from superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities, as well as various Nb resonator films from transmon qubits. Using ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy, we were able to isolate the superconducting coherence and pair-breaking responses. Our results reveal both similarities and notable differences in the temperature- and magnetic-field-dependent dynamics of the SRF cavity and thin-film resonator samples.

Background: Nonthermal, pulsed shortwave (radiofrequency) therapy (PSWT) is a nonpharmacologic, noninvasive modality that limited evidence suggests provides analgesia. Its potential favorable risk-benefit ratio stems from its lack of side effects and significant medical risks, applicability to any anatomic location, long treatment duration, and ease of application by simply affixing it with tape. Even with a relatively small treatment effect, PSWT might contribute to a multimodal analgesic regimen, similar to acetaminophen.
