Target populationAdults with imaging suggestive of a WHO grade II diffuse gliomas (oligodendrogliomas or astrocytomas)QuestionIn adults with imaging suggestive of a WHO grade II diffuse gliomas (oligodendrogliomas or astrocytomas), does surgical resection improve overall survival compared to observation or biopsy?Updated Recommendation from the Prior Version of These Guidelines:Level III: In adults with imaging suggestive of a WHO grade II diffuse gliomas (oligodendrogliomas or astrocytomas), surgical resection is suggested over observation or biopsy to improve overall survival.Question Q2In adults with imaging suggestive of a WHO grade II diffuse gliomas (oligodendrogliomas or astrocytomas), does maximal surgical resection improve progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to subtotal resection/biopsy?Unchanged Recommendations from the Prior Version of These GuidelinesLevel II It is recommended that GTR or STR be accomplished instead of biopsy alone when safe and feasible so as to decrease the frequency of tumor progression recognizing that the rate of progression after GTR is fairly high.Level III Greater extent of resection can improve OS in WHO grade II diffuse gliomas patients.

The application of nanotechnology in medical biology has seen a significant rise in recent years because of the introduction of novel tools that include supramolecular systems, complexes, and composites. Dendrimers are one of the remarkable examples of such tools. These spherical, regularly branching structures with enhanced cell compatibility and bioavailability have shown to be an excellent option for gene or drug administration.

Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
January 2025
From the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine in Saint Louis, St. Louis, MO.
We present an approach for evaluating abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans that generates reproducible measures relevant to donor site morbidity after abdominally based breast reconstruction. Seventeen preoperative CT metrics were measured in 20 patients with software: interanterior superior iliac spine distance; abdominal wall protrusion; interrectus distance; rectus abdominis width, thickness, and width-to-thickness ratio; abdominal wall thickness; subcutaneous fat volume; visceral fat volume; right/left psoas volumes and densities; and right/left rectus abdominis volumes and densities. Two operators performed measures to determine interrater reliability (n = 10).

Objective: Adolescents are meant to spend a large part of their time practicing a hobby or sport, but currently there is a decline in their level of physical activity and sport both inside and outside schools, which can lead to a risk of obesity. The objective of the present study was to examine physical activity in obese adolescents within the school establishments of the province of Bejaia (northeastern Algeria).
Method: To determine the physical activity level (PAL) in the school population, a sample of 3,038 students with obesity comprising 1,635 girls and 1,403 boys was selected.
Magnetic Induction Phase Difference for Cerebral Hemorrhage Detection.
Sensors (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Army Medical University, The Third Military Medical University, Chongqing 400038, China.
Magnetic induction phase shift is a promising technology for the detection of cerebral hemorrhage, owing to its nonradioactive, noninvasive, and real-time detection properties. To enhance the detection sensitivity and linearity, a zero-flow sensor was proposed. The uniform primary magnetic field and its counteraction were achieved.
