Modern achievements of technical progress, in particular additive technologies (ATs) and three-dimensional printing, have been increasingly introduced in neurosurgical practice. The increasing complexity of surgical interventions requires thorough planning of surgery and a high level of training of young neurosurgeons. Creation of full-scale three-dimensional models for planning of surgery enables visualization of the anatomical region of interest. Additive technologies are especially extensively used in reconstructive surgery of skull defects. ATs enable fast and efficient solving of the following tasks: - generation of accurate models of the skull and an implant; - development and fabrication of individual molds for intraoperative formation of implants from polymeric two-component materials (e.g., PMMA); - fabrication of individual implants from titanium alloys or polyetheretherketone (PEEK) for further use in surgery.

Medical College of YiChun University, Xuefu Road No 576, Yichun, 336000, Jiangxi, People's Republic of China.
Background: Artificial sweeteners (AS) have been widely utilized in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries for decades. While numerous publications have suggested a potential link between AS and diseases, particularly cancer, controversy still surrounds this issue. This study aims to investigate the association between AS consumption and cancer risk.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a globally severe cancer with an unfavorable prognosis. PANoptosis, a form of cell death regulated by PANoptosomes, plays a role in numerous cancer types. However, the specific roles of genes associated with PANoptosis in the development and advancement of ccRCC remain unclear.

State Key Laboratory of Systems Medicine for Cancer, Center for Single-Cell Omics, School of Public Health, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Background: Among hypertensive cohorts across different nations, the relationship between the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) and its conjunction with obesity metrics in relation to cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and mortality remains to be elucidated.
Methods: This study enrolled 9,283, 164,357, and 5,334 hypertensives from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), UK Biobank (UKBB), and Shanghai Pudong cohort. The related outcomes for CVD were defined by multivariate Cox proportional hazards models, Generalized Additive Models and Mendelian randomization analysis.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic entailed a global health crisis, significantly affecting medical service delivery in Germany as well as elsewhere. While intensive care capacities were overloaded by COVID cases, not only elective cases but also non-COVID cases requiring urgent treatment unexpectedly decreased, potentially leading to a deterioration in health outcomes. However, these developments were only uncovered retrospectively.

Background: Gallbladder and biliary diseases (GABD) represent prevalent disorders of the digestive system.
Methods: Data on age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rate (ASDR) were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 study. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was utilized to quantify temporal trends in GABD.
