We have attempted to clarify the clinicopathologic features of advanced gastric cancers that were detected in periodic mass screening by comparing them with those of cancers detected by an initial mass screening. The macroscopic type of the cancers detected by periodic mass screening included Borrmann's type 3 in 47% of cases but was an unclassifiable type because of its resemblance to early cancer in gross appearance in another 47% of cases. The predominant histologic type of the cancers was found to be poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with scirrhous growth. From these results, advanced gastric cancers that resemble early cancers of the depressed type, in gross morphology, and which are histologically diagnosed as poorly differentiated scirrhous carcinoma, are assumed to be rapidly growing tumors. Therefore, some of the cases that have these characteristics may, in fact, represent early-phase scirrhous carcinoma, diffuse carcinoma classified as Borrmann's type 4, of the stomach.

Measuring lower extremity impact acceleration is a common strategy to identify runners with increased injury risk. However, existing axial peak tibial acceleration (PTA) thresholds for determining high-impact runners typically rely on small samples or fixed running speeds. This study aimed to describe the distribution of axial PTA among runners at their preferred running speed, determine an appropriate adjustment for investigating impact magnitude at different speeds, and compare biomechanics between runners classified by impact magnitude.

The increasing global demand for plastic has raised the need for effective waste plastic management due to its long lifetime and resistance to environmental degradation. There is a need for rapid plastic identification to improve the mechanical waste plastic sorting process. This study presents a novel application of Temperature-Programmed Desorption-Direct Analysis in Real Time-High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (TPD-DART-HRMS) that enables rapid characterization of various plastics.

Dynamic covalent polymers (DCPs) recently emerged as smart siRNA delivery vectors, which dynamically self-assemble through siRNA templating and depolymerize in a controlled manner. Herein, we report the dynamic combinatorial screening of cationic and amphiphilic peptide-based monomers. We provide experimental evidence, by mass spectrometry analyses, of the siRNA-templated formation of DCPs, and show that amphiphilic DCPs display superior activity in terms of siRNA complexation and delivery in cells.

Background: The objective of this study was to investigate whether lung cancer screening low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) can be used to identify features associated with increased risk of hospitalization during the subsequent year.

Methods: Patients who underwent lung cancer screening between 2015 and 2020 with at least 1-year follow-up were identified. Patient charts were examined and LDCT scans were analyzed using body segmentation software to identify characteristics potentially associated with frailty and injury.
