Successful multimodal management of central nervous system solitary fibrous tumor: A case report.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare neoplasms that can occur in various locations, including the central nervous system (CNS). We present a case report of a 47-year-old male patient with an intracranial SFT who underwent subtotal resection followed by adjuvant radiotherapy. The patient initially presented with chronic left temporal headache and was diagnosed with an intra-axial double-component mass in the left temporoparietal lobe.

Dielectric heating for controlling field and storage insect pests in host plants and food products with varying moisture content.

At the intersection of insect control and sustainability goals, dielectric heating emerges as a promising solution. In agriculture, where insect pests can reduce agricultural yields and the nutritional quality of crops under field and storage conditions. Chemical pesticides are often used to manage pests but owing to their deleterious consequences on humans and the environment, chemical-free treatments have become the preferred option.

Unusual location of myxopapillary ependymoma in the sacrum: Case report and review of the literature.

Myxopapillary ependymoma, a rare variant of ependymoma, commonly occurs in the conus medullaris or filum terminale. The rarity of these tumors can make their diagnosis and treatment challenging. This case report presents an atypical occurrence of myxopapillary ependymoma within the sacrum in a 68-year-old patient presented with a 3-month history of persistent left-sided low back pain radiating to the legs and fecal dysfunction.

The quality monitoring of paracetamol medicament using a noninvasive microwave sensor.

Environmental conditions, including temperature, humidity, and light, can impact the quality of drugs. Microwave-based approaches offer a fast and cost-effective way to detect quality variations, providing an alternative to traditional techniques in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. This article proposes the use of a microwave sensor for monitoring the quality of pharmaceutical drugs at distinct temperature levels.
