Lupus nephritis: Biomarkers.

Lupus nephritis (LN) or renal involvement of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), is a common manifestation occurring in at least 50 % of SLE patients. LN remains a significant source of morbidity, often leading to progressive renal dysfunction and is a major cause of death in SLE. Despite these challenges, advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis and genetic underpinnings of LN have led to a commendable expansion in available treatments over the past decade.

Enhanced Simulation of Complicated MXene Materials with Graph Convolutional Neural Networks.

MXene, a notable two-dimensional transition metal carbide, has attracted increasing attention in materials science due to its unique attributes, driving innovations in energy storage, sensors, catalysts, and electromagnetic shielding. The property and application performance are determined by the electronic structure, which can be described based on the density of states (DOS). The conventional density functional theory (DFT) calculation is able to provide the DOS spectrum of a specific atomic structure.

Endodontic Microsurgery with the Aid of Dynamic Navigation System Using Minimally Invasive Incision Approach in Anatomically Complex Scenarios: A Case Series.

Endodontic microsurgery (EMS) is an alternative treatment option for previously treated teeth with persistent periapical disease, offering a favorable prognosis. However, it can be particularly challenging in anatomically complex cases, risking unintentional damage to adjacent critical structures. Dynamic navigation (DN), a computer-aided technique, facilitates precise presurgical planning and provides real-time guidance during operation.
