The meniscus plays a crucial role in the proper functioning of the knee joint, and when it becomes damaged, partial removal or replacement is necessary to restore proper function. Understanding the stress and deformation of the meniscus during various movements is essential for developing effective materials for meniscus repair. However, accurately estimating the contact mechanics of the knee joint can be challenging due to its complex shape and the dynamic changes it undergoes during movement.

The hydrogel possessed a reversible and dynamic double network based on dynamic covalent bonds and ionic interactions, which also contributed to excellent capability in viscosity and injectability. Moreover, it was also biodegradable with a suitable speed, giving off active ingredients during the degradation process and eventually disappearing completely.

Combination of rituximab and cladribine (R-2CdA) is a potential option for indolent NHL (iNHL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients. The goal of this multicenter retrospective study was to assess the efficacy and safety of R-2CdA in MZL to support consensus-reaching in first-line therapy in advanced-stage patients.

Herein, we report the design and synthesis of a series of Co@NC trifunctional electrocatalysts derived from rationally designed cobalt-added anion MOF precursors and preliminarily reveal the relationship between the precursor and corresponding efficient electrocatalysts. Benefiting from the special composition of Co-doped anion MOFs involving Co chelates as the Co sources, the resulting CoT@NC electrocatalyst possesses abundant Co/Co-N/Co-O and multiple active nitrogen sites that are evenly distributed.

Current chemotherapy regimens have limited effect on relapse MM patients. As a new histone deacetylase inhibitor, chidamide has been used in malignancy treatment.
