Orbital arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are rare vascular malformations that can cause severe ocular complications. This review evaluates the effectiveness of treatment strategies, focusing on post-treatment recovery and recurrence. A systematic review was conducted using PubMed and Scopus with no date restrictions.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) is a promising electronic material owing to its excellent electrochemical features, high carrier mobility at room temperature, and widely tunable electronic properties. Here, through precursor engineering and post-treatments to tailor their phase and doping, electronic characteristics of MoS are significantly modified. It is found that 2H semiconductor phase with nitrogen doping (N-doping) in flexible gas sensors constructed with Ag electrodes exhibits the highest sensitivity of ≈2500% toward 10 ppm of NO.

Nanozymes continue to attract considerable attention to minimise the dependence on expensive enzymes in bioassays, particularly in medical diagnostics. While there has been considerable effort directed towards developing different nanozymes, there has been limited progress in fabricating composite materials based on such nanozymes. One of the biggest gaps in the field is the control, tuneability, and on-demand catalytic response.

The quantification of global 5-methylcytosine (5mC) content has emerged as a promising approach for the diagnosis and prognosis of cancers. However, conventional methods for the global 5mC analysis require large quantities of DNA and may not be useful for liquid biopsy applications, where the amount of DNA available is limited. Herein, we report magnetic nanoparticles-assisted methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (e-MagnetoMethyl IP) coupled with electrochemical quantification of global DNA methylation.
