Purpose: Although numerous studies have identified potential risk factors for ipsilateral lymphedema development in patients with breast cancer following axillary node dissection, the risk factors for lymphedema in patients undergoing sentinel node biopsy without axillary dissection remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to determine the real-world incidence and risk factors for lymphedema in such patients.
Methods: We conducted a single-center, retrospective review of medical records of patients with breast cancer who underwent sentinel node biopsy alone.

The growing interest in healthy diets has driven the demand for food ingredients with enhanced health benefits. In this study, we aimed to explore a method to enhance the bioactivity of kale using a home vertical farming appliance. Specifically, we investigated the effects of treating kale with a green tea water extract (GTE; 0.

Transplantable ready-made microvessels have therapeutic potential for tissue regeneration and cell replacement therapy. Inspired by the natural rapid angiogenic sprouting of microvessels , engineered injectable 3D microvessel networks are created using thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) microfluidic devices. The TPE material used here is flexible, optically transparent, and can be robustly yet reversibly bonded to a variety of plastic substrates, making it a versatile choice for microfluidic device fabrication because it overcomes the weak self-adhesion properties and limited manufacturing options of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS).

Background: Computed tomography (CT)-guided transthoracic needle biopsy (TNB) could damage lung structures and may disseminate tumor cells into the airway, blood vessels, and pleural cavity, affecting post-operative outcomes. Several studies have investigated the effects of TNB on the prognosis of patients, but the effects remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether TNB increases the risk of recurrence of resected stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
