Purpose: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptoms in peripheral artery disease (PAD) patients, correlating these symptoms with clinical parameters and examining affective temperaments within the study group.
Material And Methods: A total of 159 PAD patients, predominantly male, admitted for vascular surgery due to lower limb atherosclerosis, participated in this cross-sectional study. Various assessments were conducted, including the Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris, and San Diego-Autoquestionnaire (TEMPS-A) for affective temperaments, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) for anxiety and depression symptoms, and the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) for pain intensity.

In 2023, significant advances were made in various areas of kidney transplantation. Firstly, the use of a balanced crystalloid solution in the recipient appears to prevent the delay in graft function, unlike hypothermia in the donor and normothermic pulsatile perfusion. Understanding the pathophysiology of humoral rejection has progressed, highlighting the major role of HLA class II molecules and innate immune cells (NK and monocytes expressing FCGR3A).

For trace gas sensing and precision spectroscopy, optical cavities incorporating low-loss mirrors are indispensable for path length and optical intensity enhancement. Optical interference coatings in the visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectral regions have achieved total optical losses below 2 parts per million (ppm), enabling a cavity finesse in excess of 1 million. However, such advancements have been lacking in the mid-infrared (MIR), despite substantial scientific interest.

Nowadays, climate change and atmospheric pollution are two of humanity's most significant challenges. Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are responsible for climate change, and they create effects that are mostly irreversible. Therefore, monitoring and reducing such emissions are compulsory for the preservation of the environment for future generations.

An optical sensor based on external-cavity quantum cascade laser (EC-QCL) was developed for simultaneous triple-species monitoring of CH, NO, and HO vapor using off-beam quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (OB-QEPAS). The EC-QCL wavelength was scanned over three neighboring absorption lines of CH (1260.81 cm), NO (1261.
