Developing a core outcome set for paediatric wrist fractures: a systematic review of prior outcomes.

Objectives: This review aims to summarize the outcomes used to describe effectiveness of treatments for paediatric wrist fractures within existing literature.

Method: We searched the Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Ovid Medline for studies pertaining to paediatric wrist fractures. Three authors independently identified and reviewed eligible studies.

STING expression and response to treatment with STING ligands in premalignant and malignant disease.

Human papilloma virus positive (HPV+) tumors represent a large proportion of anal, vulvar, vaginal, cervical and head and neck squamous carcinomas (HNSCC) and late stage invasive disease is thought to originate from a premalignant state. Cyclic dinucleotides that activate STimulator of INterferon Genes (STING) have been shown to cause rapid regression of a range of advanced tumors. We aimed to investigate STING ligands as a novel treatment for papilloma.

Circulating and intratumoral macrophages in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma: correlation with therapeutic approach.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma arises in an environment of chronic injury, and wound-healing responses may vary by treatment.

Methods: Peripheral blood myeloid populations were quantified in 39 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with surgical or endoluminal therapy. Macrophages were quantified in tissue when available.

Synthesis of oriented arrays of TiO2 nanorods via a high temperature conversion of carbon nanotubes.

Oriented arrays of both rutile and anatase nanorods have been synthesised in a two-stage process, employing multi-walled carbon nanotubes as the initial structural template.

Accelerated synthesis of titanium oxide nanostructures using microfluidic chips.

The synthesis of one-dimensional titanium oxide nanostructures has been accelerated by performing the reaction in a microfluidic environment as opposed to a classical batch process.

Removal of oxidation debris from multi-walled carbon nanotubes.

Conventional liquid phase oxidation of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) using concentrated acids generates contaminating debris that should be removed using aqueous base before further reaction.
