Article Synopsis
  • A new type of current collector for Li-ion batteries, made from woven ultra-light glass threads, is introduced, saving over 90% of the required metals like copper and aluminum.
  • The design leads to significant weight reduction (over 80%) and improved battery performance, with increases in anode and cathode capacity, enhancing specific energy by 25%.
  • The fabrication process is fully demonstrated in coin cell format, showing impressive cycling durability (300 cycles, 93% capacity retention) and high efficiency (>99.9%), paving the way for innovative battery designs.

Clear visualization during transnasal endoscopic surgery (TNES) is crucial for safe, efficient surgery. The endoscopic surgical field clarity index (ESFCI) is an artificial intelligence-enabled measure of surgical field quality. The ESFCI allows researchers to evaluate interventions to improve visualization during TNES.

Background: Granular cell tumors occur in all ages and many anatomic sites. In the craniofacial region, they typically arise in soft tissue, not bone. We present a primary intra-osseous granular cell tumor of the sphenoid and central skull base arising in a 12- year- old girl.

Article Synopsis
  • Sinonasal neoplasms (both benign and malignant) are complex issues for clinicians, highlighting the need for collaboration to improve patient care, as presented in the International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors (ICSNT).
  • The ICSNT document organizes findings into four main sections: general principles, benign neoplasms, malignant neoplasms, and quality of life, covering 48 specific topics and providing evidence-based recommendations and summaries based on their rigor.
  • This comprehensive document reflects a collective effort from an international team to advance understanding and intervention methods for sinonasal neoplasms, while also identifying future research opportunities.
