With the increasing incidence of thyroid cancer worldwide and the increasing demand for surgery, the risk of parathyroid injury is also increasing, which will lead to postoperative hypoparathyroidism (HP) and hypocalcemia. In order to improve the quality of life of patients after surgery, there is an urgent need to develop a novel platform that can identify the parathyroid gland immediately during surgery. The parathyroid gland promotes the increase of blood calcium concentration by secreting parathyroid hormone (PTH).

The mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus is widely produced in Brazil and its stipes are discarded before commercialization. In the present study, this agricultural fungal waste (mushroom stipes), was analyzed by preparing an aqueous extract and obtaining the polysaccharides by ethanol precipitation (POS-extract). The fraction presented 37 % of carbohydrates and small amounts of proteins and phenolic compounds.

Marine forests support coastal biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Nonetheless, how their productivity and carbon uptake might be affected by extreme events, such as marine heatwaves (MHWs), is yet to be explored. We experimentally evaluated the changes in oxygen and carbon budgets of the benthic community formed by the fucoid Ericaria brachycarpa induced by the exposure to a MHW.

Objectives: Mesothelin (MSLN) is an antigen that is overexpressed in various cancers, and its interaction with tumor-associated cancer antigen 125 plays a multifaceted role in tumor metastasis. The serum MSLN expression level can be detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; however, non-invasive visualization of its expression at the tumor site is currently lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a molecular probe for imaging MSLN expression through positron emission tomography (PET).

Label-free surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) combined with machine learning (ML) techniques presents a promising approach for rapid pathogen identification. Previous studies have demonstrated that purine degradation metabolites are the primary contributors to SERS spectra; however, generating these distinguishable spectra typically requires a long incubation time (>10 h) at room temperature. Moreover, the lack of attention to spectral variations between strains of the same bacterial species has limited the generalizability of ML models in real-world applications.
