Compressive Behavior of Novel Additively Manufactured Ti-6Al-4V Lattice Structures: Experimental and Numerical Studies.

This paper presents novel configurations for additively manufactured lattice structures, including helical and elliptic designs, in addition to the pyramid base model. Functionally graded versions of the pyramid and elliptic lattice structures are developed by considering desirable relative densities in each layer. The lattice structures were manufactured using Ti-6Al-4V powder in a three-dimensional selective laser melting printer.

Phenotype and genotype analysis for antibiotic resistance in outpatients: a retrospective study.

To investigate the antibiotic resistance of () in outpatients and to explore the consistency between genotype and phenotype of antibiotic resistance. A retrospective study on outpatients screened with urea breath test for infection in Nanjing First Hospital from April 2018 to January 2022. Patients who tested positive underwent a consented upper endoscopy, and the infection was confirmed by rapid urease test (RUT) and culture.

Prominent F-FDG Uptake in the Adrenal Gland after Contralateral Adrenalectomy in a Known Case of Adrenocortical Oncocytic Carcinoma.

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare type of cancer that is associated with a high rate of recurrence and poor prognosis. The main diagnostic approaches to adrenocortical cancer include CT scan, MRI and the promising role of F-FDG PET/CT. The main therapeutic approaches include radical surgery of local disease and recurrences, as well as adjuvant mitotane therapy.

Failure of tandem flow diversion for intracranial aneurysms: Literature review and illustrative case.

Background: Flow diverters are becoming one of the main endovascular procedures used to treat aneurysms. Flow diverter devices (FDDs) have multiple types approved for endovascular procedure use. Although their indications are not well described, they are usually used for large or giant, wide-necked, and recurrent aneurysms.
