The Gender Disparity in Operative Opportunities for Trainee Surgeons: A Review.

Introduction: Assessing gender disparity in surgical trainees' operative opportunities and experience quantifies implicit gender bias and reflects a summation of many smaller biased interactions within the operating room environment. Highlighting gender disparity in surgery informs a platform for advocacy.

Methods: A systematic literature search was performed using Medline, Web of Science, OpenMD and Science Direct consistent with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Metanalysis guidelines.

Electroacupuncture effects on trigeminal neuralgia with comorbid anxiety and depression: The role of frequency and acupoint specificity.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) at specific acupoints (DU20 and ST36) and different frequencies (2 and 100 Hz) on brain regions associated with trigeminal neuralgia, anxiety, and depression. Chronic trigeminal neuralgia was induced by the chronic constriction of the infraorbital nerve (CION). Anxiety and depression were assessed through behavioral tests.

A Highly Bioactive Organic-Inorganic Nanoparticle for Activating Wnt10b Mediated Osteogenesis by Specifically Anchor CCN3 Protein.

The rapid and efficient bone regeneration is still in unsatisfactory outcomes, demonstrating alternative strategy and molecular mechanism is necessary. Nanoscale biomaterials have shown some promising results in enhancing bone regeneration, however, the detailed interaction mechanism between nanomaterial and cells/tissue formation is not clear. Herein, a molecular-based inorganic-organic nanomaterial poly(citrate-siloxane) (PCS) is reported which can rapidly enhance osteogenic differentiation and bone formation through a special interaction with the cellular surface communication network factor 3 (CCN3), further activating the Wnt10b/β-catenin signaling pathway.

CAMKIIδ Reinforces Lipid Metabolism and Promotes the Development of B Cell Lymphoma.

The most prevalent types of lymphomas are B cell lymphomas (BCL). Newer therapies for BCL have improved the prognosis for many patients. However, approximately 30% with aggressive BCL either remain refractory or ultimately relapse.

New horizons in smart plant sensors: key technologies, applications, and prospects.

As the source of data acquisition, sensors provide basic data support for crop planting decision management and play a foundational role in developing smart planting. Accurate, stable, and deployable on-site sensors make intelligent monitoring of various planting scenarios possible. Recent breakthroughs in plant advanced sensors and the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing and artificial intelligence (AI) have driven sensors towards miniaturization, intelligence, and multi-modality.
