: Tumor organoid and tumor-on-chip (ToC) platforms replicate aspects of the anatomical and physiological states of tumors. They, therefore, serve as models for investigating tumor microenvironments, metastasis, and immune interactions, especially for precision drug testing. To map the changing research diversity and focus in this field, we performed a quality-controlled text analysis of categorized academic publications and clinical studies.

This study aims to determine whether PLD and PLFD yield different radiological outcomes following surgical treatment while identifying prognostic factors for worse outcomes.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 51 patients treated for perilunate injuries between 2000 and 2022.
Introduction: Hypoxia can drive tumor progression, suppress anti-tumor immunity, and reduce the effectiveness of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This study aimed to assess the impact of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) on tumor oxygenation (sO2) and the anti-tumor immune response.
Material And Methods: Fourteen B16-Ova tumor-bearing C57BL/6N mice received six 5-minute RIC cycles, while another fourteen underwent anesthesia only.
Huntington's disease (HD) is a devastating, incurable condition whose pathophysiological mechanism relies on mutant RNA CAG repeat expansions. Aberrant recruitment of RNA-binding proteins by mutant CAG hairpins contributes to the progress of neurodegeneration. In this work, we identified a novel binder based on an aurone scaffold that reduces the level of binding of HTT mRNA to the MID1 protein .
