Background: Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is a systemic condition that might lead to dysphagia because of massive osteophytes that may be present at multiple levels. Confirming the symptomatic level to guide surgical management and avoid extensive surgery is important, however, there is no globally accepted consensus on the topic.
Case Description: We report the case of a 51-year-old man, with no specific past medical history, who has been complaining of a 3-months pain in the left side of the tongue base with sensation of a lump in the throat and dysphagia.

Isothermal nucleic acid amplification techniques are promising alternatives to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for amplifying and detecting nucleic acids under resource-limited conditions. While many isothermal amplification strategies, such as recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), offer comparable sensitivity to PCR, they often lack the specificity and robustness for discriminating single nucleotide variants (SNVs), mainly due to the uncontrolled production of massive amplicons. Herein, we introduce a mismatch-guided DNA assembly (MGDA) approach capable of discriminating SNVs in the presence of high concentrations of wild-type (WT) interferences.

The rapid increase of novel per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) raises concerns, while their identification remains challenging. Here, we develop a two-layer homolog network approach for PFAS nontarget screening using mass spectrometry. The first layer constructs networks between homologs, with evaluation showing that it filters 94% of false candidates.

Introduction: Hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable deaths in trauma patients, resulting in 1.5 million deaths annually worldwide. Traditional trauma assessment follows the ABC (airway, breathing, circulation) sequence; evidence suggests the CAB (circulation, airway, breathing) approach to maintain perfusion and prevent hypotension.
