Investigating orbital foreign device-associated malignancies: a scoping review.

Background: While prosthesis-associated malignancies have been acknowledged, awareness among surgeons and patients in the ophthalmologic field remains limited, despite the frequent occurrence of prosthesis-related surgeries. We aim to address this gap through a scoping review of malignancies following ophthalmologic surgeries involving various foreign device/prosthesis/implants.

Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a review using PubMed and Embase for studies on cancer and ophthalmic prostheses/implants.

Solar-Driven High-Rate Ammonia Production from Wastewater Coupled with Plastic Waste Reforming.

Solar-powered electrochemical NH synthesis offers the benefits of sustainability and absence of CO emissions but suffers from a poor solar-to-ammonia yield rate (SAY) due to a low NH selectivity, large bias caused by the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction, and low photocurrent in the corresponding photovoltaics. Herein, a highly efficient photovoltaic-electrocatalytic system enabling high-rate solar-driven NH synthesis was developed. A high-performance Ru-doped Co nanotube catalyst was used to selectively promote the nitrite reduction reaction (NORR), exhibiting a faradaic efficiency of 99.

Hydrolysate Mitigates Muscle Dysfunction and Ectopic Fat Deposition Triggered by a High-Fat Diet in Mice.

Background/objectives: Obesity is a key factor in metabolic syndrome (MetS) development. Consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) accelerates the onset of obesity and associated metabolic complications. (PB) has been traditionally utilized in Korean medicine for its antioxidant, anti-diabetic, anticancer, and hepatoprotective effects.

Graph Convolutional Network with Neural Collaborative Filtering for Predicting miRNA-Disease Association.

Over the past few decades, micro ribonucleic acids (miRNAs) have been shown to play significant roles in various biological processes, including disease incidence. Therefore, much effort has been devoted to discovering the pivotal roles of miRNAs in disease incidence to understand the underlying pathogenesis of human diseases. However, identifying miRNA-disease associations using biological experiments is inefficient in terms of cost and time.

Current Practices and Perceived Effectiveness of Clinicians Regarding Polynucleotide Injection for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Survey-Based Evaluation.

Intra-articular (IA) injection therapy, particularly IA hyaluronic acid (HA), is a common treatment for knee osteoarthritis, but it does have limitations. The injection of IA polynucleotide (PN) has emerged as an alternative, potentially offering superior clinical outcomes. This study investigates current practice patterns and the perceived effectiveness of PN among clinicians for treating knee osteoarthritis in the Republic of Korea.
