Do Variations in Frontal Recess Anatomy Predispose to Mucocele Formation?

 Mucoceles are benign expansile cystic lesions commonly seen in the frontoethmoidal region.  To see if the distribution of frontal air cells predisposes to mucocele formation.  Retrospective review of all cases of paranasal sinus mucocele from 2011 to 2021.

Advances in microfluidic platforms for tumor cell phenotyping: from bench to bedside.

Heterogeneities among tumor cells significantly contribute towards cancer progression and therapeutic inefficiency. Hence, understanding the nature of cancer through liquid biopsies and isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) has gained considerable interest over the years. Microfluidics has emerged as one of the most popular platforms for performing liquid biopsy applications.

Adjusted Donor Age: A Clinical Score to Support Organ Acceptance Decisions in Deceased-Donor Kidney Transplantation.

As transplant programmes have evolved to allow a wider donor pool, organ acceptance decisions have become increasingly complex and lack transparency and equality. Clinical scoring tools exist but there is limited consensus on their use. From a prospective observation of consecutive deceased-donor kidney offers in a large urban transplant centre, a simple score was developed based on donor age and other risk characteristics, excluding ischemia time and graft histology.
