The multi-sector reconstruction (MSR) algorithm and cardiac half-reconstruction (CHR) algorithm are the main algorithms used in cardiac reconstruction. Analysis of effective temporal resolution (TR) confirmed that optimal rotation speed depends on different heart rates when using MSR. During visualization (3D/MPR image) and quantitative (EF: ejection fraction) evaluations, it was found that image quality and measurement accuracy are well correlated with effective temporal resolution (TR) by the different algorithms. The CHR algorithm resulted in less desirable image quality at TR 250 ms than that from MSR at high heart rates (>75 bpm) in the phantom experiment. We determined that the combination of the MSR algorithm and the optimal selection of gantry rotation speed is important for obtaining high-quality cardiac imaging in the high heart rate region.

Mitochondrial endonuclease G (EndoG) contributes to chromosomal degradation when it is released from mitochondria during apoptosis. It is presumed to also have a mitochondrial function because EndoG deficiency causes mitochondrial dysfunction. However, the mechanism by which EndoG regulates mitochondrial function is not known.

Implantable systems with chronic stability, high sensing performance, and extensive spatial-temporal resolution are a growing focus for monitoring and treating several diseases such as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, chronic pain, and cardiac arrhythmias. These systems demand exceptional bendability, scalable size, durable electrode materials, and well-encapsulated metal interconnects. However, existing chronic implantable bioelectronic systems largely rely on materials prone to corrosion in biofluids, such as silicon nanomembranes or metals.

Background: 22q11 deletion syndrome consists of a variable grouping of phenotypic features and immunological defects secondary to the loss of genetic material located in the 22q11.2 band. The 22q11 deletion spectrum encompasses different syndromes related to the same etiology and with overlapping anomalies, including DiGeorge syndrome, velocardiofacial syndrome, among others.

The combined use of tocilizumab (TCZ) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in cancer treatment is gaining attention, but preclinical studies are lacking. Our study aims to investigate the synergistic anti-tumor effect of TCZ combined with ICIs and its role in treating immune-related adverse events (irAEs). The clinical significance of high interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression in tumor patients was analyzed from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.
