Background: Health education about is one of the most effective methods to prevent infection and standardize eradication treatment. Short videos enable people to absorb and remember information more easily and are an important source of health education. This study aimed to assess the information quality of -related videos on Chinese short video-sharing platforms.

The optimal number of examined lymph nodes (ELNs) for gastric signet ring cell carcinoma recommended by National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the optimal number of ELNs and investigate its prognostic significance. In this study, we included 1723 patients diagnosed with gastric signet ring cell carcinoma in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database.

Cases of arthroscopic surgery have increased over the past two decades, and arthroscopic shaver systems have become a commonly used orthopedic tool. Nevertheless, most shavers generally have problems such as the cutting edge is not sharp enough and easy to wear. This paper aims to discuss the structural characteristics of BJKMC's (Bojin Kinetic Medical) novel arthroscopic shaver, the double serrated blade.
