Microelectrodes offer exceptional sensitivity, rapid response, and versatility, making them ideal for real-time detection and monitoring applications. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors have shown great value in many fields due to their high sensitivity, fast response, and ease of operation. Nevertheless, conventional PEC sensing relies on cumbersome external light sources and bulky electrodes, hindering its miniaturization and implantation, thereby limiting its application in real-time disease monitoring.

Background: Hydration and urine alkalinization are the mainstays for the prevention of methotrexate-induced nephrotoxicity. Current oncology protocols recommend pediatric patients who are administered high-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) to be aggressively hydrated with an alkaline solution, which may lead to overhydration. This pilot study sought to determine whether reduced posthydration results in a shorter time to methotrexate elimination without increasing adverse effects.

Nutrition plays a central role in healthy living, however, extensive variability in individual responses to dietary interventions complicates our understanding of its effects. Here we present a comprehensive study utilizing the Genetic Reference Panel (DGRP), investigating how genetic variation influences responses to diet and aging. Quantitative genetic analyses of the impact of dietary restriction on lifespan, locomotor activity, dry weight, and heat knockdown time were performed.
