The change of treatment modality in osteosynthesis is based on two principles. On one hand, one can exchange the implant as part of a two step procedure to reduce side effects of stabilizing fractures. On the other hand, a reosteosynthesis may be required for treatment of complications. A retrospective analysis was undertaken to differentiate the situation of indication, technique and results of patients with fractures of the femur. Indications for two step procedure of therapy at the femur are limited to fractures of polytraumatized patients and fractures with severe soft tissue damage. External fixator devices have been used for stabilization of long bone fractures with severe soft tissue damage using the two step procedure in the past decades; nowadays unreamed nailing is commonly preferred. Reosteosynthesis may be appropriate for the treatment of failing of osteosynthesis; they can also be used due to delayed union or nonunion of fractures, osseous deficiency or infection. In the case of failing osteosynthesis, the reasons for failing have to be studied thoroughly and a variety of subsequent procedures has to be taken into consideration for successful treatment.

Building a faculty job application package is a crucial step for academic career advancement, yet early career researchers (ECRs) often face significant time and emotional challenges during this process. The varying application systems across institutions create unnecessary complexity and waste time. Standardizing these procedures would save time, reduce burdens, and enhance fairness in recruitment.

Endoscopic spinal surgery has gained increasing popularity over the past 10 years. Its muscle-preserving nature, reduction in postoperative pain, and lower complication rates have contributed to the growing number of surgeons adopting this technique year after year. This same progression has led to the application of the technique in oncological pathology, primarily for separation surgeries and biopsies of extradural lesions.

Magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) has been widely employed in the isolation and enrichment of antibiotics in complex matrices because it presents various unique advantages over traditional SPE including simple operation, fast extraction procedure, low cost and eco-friendliness. In recently years, magnetic molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (MMINs) containing highly specific recognition performance have been widely used to specific extraction of antibiotics under the format of MSPE. In this connection, recent advances of MMINs in the analysis of antibiotic residues are reviewed.

Background: The causal relationship between PM (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 μm) and common mental disorders, along with its neuropathological mechanisms, remains unclear.
Methods: We used genome-wide association study datasets from the UK Biobank and Psychiatric Genomics Consortium to systematically investigate the causal relationship between PM and nine common psychiatric disorders using two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) methods.

Medial capsulorrhaphy is an important step in hallux valgus correction surgery; however, studies on this technique are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the viability and efficacy of modified medial capsulorrhaphy using figure-of-eight sutures for hallux valgus compared to the conventional technique. Retrospective analysis was performed on patients with hallux valgus, comparing a group receiving standard longitudinal capsulorrhaphy (Group 1) and a group that underwent modified capsulorrhaphy using figure-of-eight sutures (Group 2).
