Smart Contact Lens for Colorimetric Visualization of Glucose Levels in the Body Fluid.

Frequent blood glucose monitoring is a crucial routine for diabetic patients. Traditional invasive methods can cause discomfort and pain and even pose a risk of infection. As a result, researchers have been exploring noninvasive techniques.

[Current Status and Prospects of Liquid Biopsy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma].

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Early detection and treatment response monitoring of HCC are vital for improved outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods rely on imaging, serum tumor markers, and invasive liver tissue biopsy.

rhBMP-2-Conjugated Three-Dimensional-Printed Poly(L-lactide) Scaffold is an Effective Bone Substitute.

Background: Bone growth factors, particularly bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2), are required for effective treatment of significant bone loss. Despite the extensive development of bone substitutes, much remains to be desired for wider application in clinical settings. The currently available bone substitutes cannot sustain prolonged BMP-2 release and are inconvenient to use.
