Improved positioning in robotic assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy using the EDGE MP1000 surgical robot.

This study investigated the impact of an improved body positioning on the effectiveness of EDGE MP1000 robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. We compared clinical data from 39 patients who underwent the procedure at Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University between November 2023 and May 2024. The control group (18 patients) received conventional positioning, while the experimental group (21 patients) received precise positioning, which included patient assessments, optimized positioning techniques, and enhanced nursing measures.

Sensitive phenotyping of serum extracellular vesicles on a SERS-microfluidic platform for early-stage clinical diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma.

Ovarian carcinoma (OvCa) poses a severe threat to women's health due to its high mortality rate and lack of efficient early diagnosis approach. There is evidence to suggest that nanosized small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) which carrying cell-specific components from OvCa can serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers. Herein, we reported a Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS)-multichannel microchip for sEVs (S-MMEV) assay to investigate the phenotype changes of sEVs.
