Microarray analysis enables the genome-wide detection of copy number variations and the investigation of chromosomal instability. Whereas array techniques have been well established for the analysis of unamplified DNA derived from many cells, it has been more challenging to enable the accurate analysis of single cell genomes. In this review, we provide an overview of single cell DNA amplification techniques, the different array approaches, and discuss their potential applications to study human embryos.

The aim of this study is to describe the management and evolution of a patient with the rare condition of double lactotroph tumors and assess the role of intraoperative ultrasonography (IOUS) for their detection and methylation-based liquid biopsy for their diagnosis and monitoring. A 29-year-old woman diagnosed with double lactotroph tumors through hormonal and MRI workup underwent surgical resection due to cabergoline intolerance. To detect a tumor missing through visual inspection, IOUS was performed.

They are a vital technology for terahertz wireless communication and radar detection systems. Compared with 1-bit coding metasurfaces, 2-bit coding metasurfaces offer significant advantages such as single beam steering and reduced quantization errors.

The core components of this method involve optimizing phase offsets and power coefficients through iterative processes to achieve precise beam shaping and efficient energy distribution among multiple beams. This approach overcomes the single-link limitation of traditional laser terminals and resolves challenges such as low radiation efficiency and substantial power loss in multi-beam generation systems utilizing passive phased array antennas.

In this work, we are concerned with zero permittivity materials and a new scheme to design metamaterials for which all components of the dielectric tensor are approximately zero. Our approach involves the alternate layering of many, very thin, slices of two constituent metamaterials, a uniaxial layered medium and a uniaxial nanowire array.
