Objective: To assess and report clinical data from patients with syndactyly.
Methods: A retrospective review of 47 patients treated between April 2002 and April 2012.
Results: Among the 47 analyzed patients, 33 (70%) were male and 14 (30%) female. The total number of syndactylies was 116. The right hand was affected in 19 patients (40%), the left hand in 12 (24%) and 31 (36%) were bilaterally compromise. Sixteen patients (34%) also presented genetic syndromes. Among the 31 (66%) patients without syndromes, 12 (39%) had isolated syndactyly and 19 (61%) presented association with other hand anomalies. The third web space was affected 45 (39%) times; the fourth, 35 (30%) times; the second, 22 (19%) times and the first web space 14 (22%) times. Simple syndactyly was found 68 (59%) times, complete syndactyly in 44 (65%) and incomplete in 24 (55%). Complex syndactyly was found 48 (41%) times.
Conclusion: The results in this study are similar to the literature. Epidemiological Study .

The lung tumor microenvironment (TME) or stroma is a dynamic space of numerous cells and their released molecules. This complicated web regulates tumor progression and resistance to different modalities. Lung cancer cells in conjunction with their stroma liberate a wide range of factors that dampen antitumor attacks by innate immunity cells like natural killer (NK) cells and also adaptive responses by effector T cells.

Green walls for greywater treatment have emerged as a solution to increase green spaces in densely urbanized areas while providing treated greywater for reuse. Over the past decade, numerous studies have focused on optimizing these systems, though most address specific operational conditions and evaluate a limited set of performance parameters. This review synthesizes the existing literature using a meta-analysis to identify key operational factors and treatment performance metrics.

Advanced predictive modeling approaches have harnessed data to fuel important innovations at all stages of drug development. However, the need for a machine-readable drug product library which consolidates many aspects of formulation design and performance remains largely unmet. This study presents a scripted, reproducible approach to database curation and explores its potential to streamline oral medicine development.

As a free-ranging, social species, the housing of horses () may limit their opportunity to display natural behaviour, compromising well-being. This review records and presents studies that have investigated horse housing design, evaluates the location and number of studies carried out to date, and reports the methods used to assess impact on equine well-being. A Boolean search was conducted in two databases: Web of Science and Scopus, filtered according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol, resulting in 60 peer-reviewed papers for evaluation.

Background: This research utilized the bibliometrics method to analyze the published literature related to prostate cancer (PCa) imaging. Furthermore, current knowledge and research hotspots of radiomics in PCa diagnosis and treatment were comprehensively reviewed, as well as progress and emerging trends in field were explored.
Methods: In this investigation, the relevant literature on radiomics, and PCa was retrieved from Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) databases from 2000 and 2024.
