We present a patient with Hodgkin's disease in whom computed tomography suggested focal lesions in the liver. As no lesions were detected by diagnostic ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with iron oxide as contrast medium was performed for verification. MRI confirmed at least 3 small lesions. The ultrasound study performed immediately after this MRI scan easily detected these lesions. A biopsy was taken and histology showed infiltrates of Hodgkin's disease. The change in echogenicity of the liver and/or the lymphomatous tissue may be an effect of iron oxide. This observation has not been reported before.

FeO nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as pioneering nanozymes with applications in clinical diagnosis, environmental protection and biosensing. However, it is currently limited by insufficient catalytic activity due to poor electron transfer. In this study, we synthesized electron-rich-Zr-doped defect-rich FeO NPs (ZrFeO) using a one-pot solvothermal method.

Municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills represent underexplored microbial ecosystems. Landfills contain variable amounts of antibiotic and construction and demolition (C&D) wastes, which have the potential to alter microbial metabolism due to biocidal or redox active components, and these effects are largely underexplored. To circumvent the challenge of MSW heterogeneity, we conducted a 65-day time series study on simulated MSW microcosms to assess microbiome changes using 16S rRNA sequencing in response to 1) Fe(OH)3 and 2) Na2SO4 to represent redox active components of C&D waste as well as 3) antibiotics.

Background And Aims: Ferroptosis, a novel concept of programmed cell death proposed in 2012, in kidney disease, has garnered significant attention based on evidence of abnormal iron deposition and lipid peroxidation damage in the kidney. Our study aim to examine the trends and future research directions in the field of ferroptosis in kidney disease, so as to further explore the target or treatment strategy for clinical treatment of kidney disease.
Material And Methods: A thorough survey using the Web of Science Core Collection, focusing on literature published between 2012 and 2024 examining the interaction between kidney disease and ferroptosis was conducted.

Capacitive-based radiofrequency (Rf) radiation at 27 MHz offers a non-invasive approach for inducing hyperthermia, making it a promising technique for thermal cancer therapy applications. To achieve focused and site-specific hyperthermia, external material is required that efficiently convert Rf radiation into localized heat. Nanomaterials capable of absorbing Rf energy and convert into heat for targeted ablation are of critical importance.

Monodisperse and colloidally stable magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles have been developed for diverse biotechnology applications. Although promising for the adsorption of organic molecules, the low density of adsorption sites in these nanoparticles has been a significant challenge. In this study, an optimized factorial design with response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to produce small Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) stabilized with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS).
