Aims: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have both been shown to be effective treatments for osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. Many studies have compared the outcomes of the two treatments, but less so with the use of robotics, or individualized TKA alignment techniques. Functional alignment (FA) is a novel technique for performing a TKA and shares many principles with UKA.

Background And Purpose: The indications of prophylactic extended-field radiotherapy (EFRT) remain uncertain. This study aims to identify the risk factors for para-aortic lymph node (PALN) metastases in locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) and determine which part of patients may benefit from prophylactic EFRT.
Materials And Methods: Between January 2015 and July 2023, a single-center retrospective analysis was performed on patients with stages IB3 and IIA2-IVA cervical cancer.

We discuss the outcomes of our 16th horizon scan of issues that are novel or represent a considerable step-change and have the potential to substantially affect conservation of biological diversity in the coming decade. From an initial 96 topics, our international panel of 32 scientists and practitioners prioritised 15 issues. Technological advances are prominent, including metal and non-metal organic frameworks, deriving rare earth elements from macroalgae, synthetic gene drives in plants, and low-emission cement.

Purpose: The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing and CKD often goes undiagnosed and untreated until its later stages when irreversible damage has occurred. Patients with CKD have been reported to have lower quality of life than the general population, but the patient-reported outcome data on CKD patients in Finland are limited.
Patients And Methods: The primary outcome of this structural, multiple-choice survey study was to assess life satisfaction and experienced health status in Finnish patients with CKD.

To alleviate situation caused by azo dyestuff and antibiotics, a series of CdS/sulfur doped carbon nitride (GCNS) S-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts have been successfully fabricated by a pretty facile solid-state diffusion (SSD) method,. Under visible light, the optimal sample called CdS/GCNS-1:2 presented the best photodegradation rate of nearly 100% over methyl orange (MO), of which the reaction constant k was about 9.67 and 5.
