In the fast-paced quest for early cancer detection, noninvasive screening techniques have emerged as game-changers, offering simple and accessible avenues for precession diagnostics. In line with this, our study highlights the potential of silver nanoparticle-decorated titanium carbide MXene nanosheets (TiC_AgNPs) as an electroactive interface for the noninvasive diagnosis of oral carcinoma based on the prevalence of the salivary biomarker, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). An in situ reduction was utilized to synthesize the TiC_AgNPs nanohybrid, wherein TiC acts as the reducing agent, and the resulting nanohybrid was subjected to various characterization techniques to examine the optical, structural, and morphological attributes.

Background: Current outcomes from catheter ablation for scar-dependent ventricular tachycardia (VT) are limited by high recurrence rates and long procedure durations. Personalized heart digital twin technology presents a noninvasive method of predicting critical substrate in VT, and its integration into clinical VT ablation offers a promising solution. The accuracy of the predictions of digital twins to detect invasive substrate abnormalities is unknown.

Background: Electrocardiographic imaging (ECGi) is a non-invasive technique for ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation planning. However, it is limited to reconstructing epicardial surface activation. In-silico pace mapping combines a personalized computational model with clinical electrocardiograms (ECGs) to generate a virtual 3D pace map.

Background: Socioeconomic inequality in infant mortality in the UK is rising. This study aims to identify contributory maternal and pregnancy factors that can explain the known association between area deprivation and infant mortality.
Methods: A cohort study was conducted using Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) primary care data between 2004 and 2019 linked to the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD), and infant mortality from the Office for National Statistics death data.

Background: Preterm infants face challenges in their suck-swallow-breathe coordination leading to an increased risk of aspiration. Key components of the swallowing process are present around 34 to 35 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA), but preterm infants fatigue early affecting timing, quality and efficiency in swallowing and prolonging breathing pauses. Feeding strategies need to address these specific challenges in suck-swallow-breathe coordination.
