Objectives: To compare the consolidation quality between the anteromedial aspect of regenerated bone (AMRB) and other areas of regenerated bone (TORB) following the induced membrane technique (IMT) for managing critical-sized tibial shaft bone defects, and determine the factors affecting consolidation quality in the AMRB.
Methods: Design: Retrospective comparative study.
Setting: Academic Level I trauma center.

Purpose: To evaluate changes in the retinal microvasculature using widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) following three anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) loading injections for diabetic macular edema (DME).
Methods: Thirty-four treatment-naïve patients with DME received an initial three loading injections, followed by injections on an as-needed basis. Macular ischemia was evaluated based on the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, perfusion density, and vessel density on a 3 × 3-mm SS-OCTA image.

Parainfluenza virus type 5 (PIV5) can cause either persistent or acute/lytic infections in a wide range of mammalian tissue culture cells. Here, we have generated PIV5 fusion (F)-expressing helper cell lines that support the replication of F-deleted viruses. As proof of the principle that F-deleted single-cycle infectious viruses can be used as safe and efficient expression vectors, we have cloned and expressed a humanized (Hu) version of the mouse anti-V5 tag antibody (clone SV5-Pk1).

Background: This research introduces a novel method for quantifying aggregated tau in body fluids, specifically cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), aiming to enhance the diagnosis and monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases, with a focus on Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Method: By combining tau protein amplification with a highly sensitive single-molecule array (Simoa) immunoassay using an anti-tau antibody CT19.1 in a homogenous manner, the approach enables precise measurements of tau aggregates in CSF.

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a debilitating condition that affects millions of people worldwide, yet there are currently no reliable biomarkers for its diagnosis. Alpha-synuclein aggregation is a well-known hallmark of PD pathology, but the behavior and kinetics of these aggregates are poorly understood. To address this gap in knowledge, this study utilized several approaches to evaluate the potential of alpha-synuclein aggregates as potential biomarker for PD.
