The Role of Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Evaluating Prostate Adenocarcinoma: A Partially-Blinded Retrospective Study of a Prostatectomy Patient Cohort With Whole Gland Histopathology Correlation and Application of PI-RADS or TNM Staging.

Background: Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the current Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System version 2.1 (PI-RADS v2.1) is considered optional, with primary scoring based on T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI).

Methodology of cfHPV-DNA Detection in Head and Neck Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Objective: We aim to compare the diagnostic accuracy of the different methodologies used in the detection of cell-free human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA in HPV-associated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma detection using bivariate analysis methods.

Data Sources: Pubmed, Embase, and Scopus were queried using a broad search strategy to search for relevant studies.

Review Methods: Test characteristics were extracted from 33 studies following literature screening, and underwent analyses utilizing a bivariate approach.

Supra-particle formation by evaporation of aerosol droplets containing binary mixtures of colloidal particles: Controlling the final morphology.

Hypothesis: Supra-particle formation by evaporation of an aqueous aerosol droplet containing nano-colloidal particles is challenging to investigate but has significant applications. We hypothesise that the Peclet number, Pe, which compares the effectiveness of evaporation-induced advection to that of colloidal diffusion, is critical in determining supra-particle morphology and can be used to predict the dried morphology for droplet containing polydisperse nanoparticles.

Experiments: Sterically-stabilized diblock copolymer nanoparticles were prepared via polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA).

Dental Rehabilitation in Maxillomandibular Free Flap Reconstruction.

Microvascular free-flaps have changed reconstructive surgery. For patients undergoing maxillomandibular resections, free-flap surgery, especially use of the osseocutaneous fibula free-flap (FFF) has dramatically altered the ability to provide patients with good functional and aesthetic outcomes despite a large resection. The use of endosseous dental implants along with free-flaps has helped patients return to eating and speaking relatively quickly postoperatively.
