It has been experimentally observed that moth-eye antireflective microstructures at the end of As2S3 fibers have an increased laser damage threshold relative to thin-film antireflective coatings. In this work, we computationally study the irradiance enhancement in As2S3 moth-eye antireflective microstructures in order to explain the increased damage threshold. We show that the irradiance enhancement occurs mostly on the air side of the interfaces and is minimal in the As2S3 material. We give a physical explanation for this behavior.

Background: Nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is a common head and neck malignant tumor, which is difficult to treat at the advanced NPC due to its occult and high metastatic potential to the cervical lymph nodes and distant organs. Low-dose radiotherapy (LDRT) is increasingly being investigated for potential cancer treatment. When combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors, LDRT has been shown to significantly improve the immune microenvironment of tumors, thereby promote the immune attack on tumor cells.

Purpose: This study aimed to describe the incidence, clinical and pathological features, and outcomes of H3 K27M- mutant Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) patients with leptomeningeal dissemination (LMD) and systematically investigate the predictive and prognostic factors to clarify the response to treatment after the onset of LMD.
Methods: A total of 304 patients diagnosed with DMG from October 17, 2017, to October 17, 2023, were enrolled in this study, of which 32 patients were diagnosed with LMD. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the predictors of LMD, including clinical, molecular, and imaging data.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, with over 1 million new cases and around 400,000 deaths annually worldwide. This makes it a significant and costly global health challenge. Standard treatments like chemotherapy and radiotherapy, often used after mastectomy, show varying effectiveness based on the cancer subtype.

Photoactive complexes of bioessential 3d metals, activable within the phototherapeutic window (650-900 nm), have gained widespread interest due to their therapeutic potential. Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, and light-enhanced anticancer and antibacterial properties of four new dinuclear Co(II) complexes: [Co(phen)(cat)] (Co-1), [Co(dppz)(cat)] (Co-2), [Co(phen)(esc)] (Co-3), and [Co(dppz)(esc)] (Co-4). In these complexes, phen (1,10-phenanthroline) and dppz (dipyrido[3,2-:2',3'-]phenazine) act as neutral N,N-donor ligands, while cat and esc serve as O,O-donor catecholate ligands derived from catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene) and esculetin (6,7-dihydroxy coumarin).

Introduction: Glioblastomas (GBM) are aggressive tumors that make up about 7% of central nervous system tumors in children. Spinal GBMs (sGBMs) are extremely rare, accounting for less than 1% of pediatric spinal tumors. sGBMs are difficult to treat due to their infiltrative nature and cause significant morbidity.
