A novel star-shaped chromophore, Tr-PBI, was constructed by fusing three perylenebisimide branches and a truxene core. Tr-PBI exhibits high photostability and excellent two-photon properties: the maximum of δ(TPA) is 11,000 GM at 990 nm and fluorescence quantum efficiency Φ is 0.40 in THF.

X-ray dark-field imaging highlights sample structures through contrast generated by sub-resolution features within the inspected volume. Quantifying dark-field signals generally involves multiple exposures for phase retrieval, separating contributions from scattering, refraction, and attenuation. Here, we introduce an approach for non-interferometric X-ray dark-field imaging that presents a single-parameter representation of the sample.

A defect in the fusion of Müllerian ducts results in the uterine malformation of the bicornuate uterus. The bicornuate uterus is an uncommon condition, and it is associated with adverse early pregnancy and antenatal events, such as recurrent miscarriages, preterm labor, and delivery. The bicornuate uterus has two symmetric uterine cavities that are fused caudally and have some degree of communication between the two cavities, usually at the uterine isthmus.

Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) printing is one of the most all-purpose manufacturing techniques, allowing many complicated parts to be obtained at lower cost. This is especially important in prosthetics, where more complex prostheses, especially of a hand, can cause enormous expense. However, providing the full functionality of a prosthesis often requires combining materials with different properties, such as rigidity and flexibility.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is widely used to alleviate the syndromes of epilepsy. However, the marketed oral CBD formulation has the prominent first-pass effect. Here, a cannabidiol-loaded hollow suppository (CHS) was developed using three-dimensional (3D) printing technology.

Purpose: This retrospective study aimed to assess ossification patterns and synchondrosis fusion timelines of the C1 and C2 vertebrae in pediatric age group, to help differentiate injuries from normal variations and serve as a guide when evaluating incompletely fused synchondrosis.
Materials And Methods: The study analyzed 432 CT examinations of children aged 0-72 months, conducted at a single institution between January 2010 and January 2018. The focus was assessment of the visibility and fusion of the three ossification centers and three synchondroses of the atlas, and six ossification centers and four synchondroses of the axis, based on age.
