Article Synopsis
  • * Seven patients received autologous MSCs without any serious side effects, showing no tumors or neurological decline throughout the process.
  • * Notable functional improvements and enhanced quality of life were reported 90 and 180 days after the infusion, indicating that this treatment could be beneficial for chronic SCI, though further large-scale studies are required for conclusive results.

Unilateral spatial neglect is the failure of brain-damaged patients to report, respond, or orient to novel or meaningful stimuli presented to the contralateral side of the lesion. This usually involves the right cerebral hemisphere. Neglect presents with no restriction in gaze direction and results in difficulty across various aspects of daily activities, distinguishing it from simple homonymous hemianopia.

Clathrate hydrates continue to be the focus of active research efforts due to their use in energy resources, transportation, and storage-related applications. Therefore, it is crucial to define their essential characteristics from a molecular standpoint. Understanding molecular structure in particular is crucial because it aids in understanding the mechanisms that lead to the formation or dissociation of clathrate hydrates.

Classification of molecular structures is a crucial step in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to detect various structures and phases within systems. Molecular structures, which are commonly identified using order parameters, were recently identified using machine learning (ML), that is, the ML models acquire structural features using labeled crystals or phases via supervised learning. However, these approaches may not identify unlabeled or unknown structures, such as the imperfect crystal structures observed in nonequilibrium systems and interfaces.

Limb salvage is a common procedure after extensive osteosarcoma resection. However, the long-term outcomes after limb salvage surgery (LSS) remain unclear. In this article, the case of a 24-year-old man who underwent hip disarticulation (HD) after an uncontrollable infection is presented.
