Organ-on-a-chip culture systems using human organ tissues provide invaluable preclinical insights into systemic functions . This study aimed to develop a novel human testicular tissue chip within a microfluidic device employing computer-aided design software and photolithography technology. Polydimethylsiloxane was used as the primary material to ensure marked gas permeability and no biotoxicity, enabling effective mimicry of the testicular microenvironment.

Primary malignant bone tumors are the third highest cause of cancer-related mortality among patients under the age of 20. X-ray scan is the primary tool for detecting bone tumors. However, due to the varying morphologies of bone tumors, it is challenging for radiologists to make a definitive diagnosis based on radiographs.

Background: The wireless capsule endoscope (CE) is a valuable diagnostic tool in gastroenterology, offering a safe and minimally invasive visualization of the gastrointestinal tract. One of the few drawbacks identified by the gastroenterology community is the time-consuming task of analyzing CE videos.
Objectives: This article investigates the feasibility of a computer-aided diagnostic method to speed up CE video analysis.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a leading cause of death worldwide with over 90% of reported cases occurring in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Pre-treatment loss to follow-up (PTLFU) is a key contributor to TB mortality and infection transmission.
Objectives: We performed a scoping review to map available evidence on interventions to reduce PTLFU in adults with pulmonary TB, identify gaps in existing knowledge, and develop a conceptual framework to guide intervention implementation.
