Patient position management is an important work in clinical treatment. In clinic, it is necessary to adjust the corresponding patient's position according to the characteristics of the patient's condition. The appropriate patient's position plays an important role in treating the disease, alleviating the severity of symptoms and preventing the complications in the critical patients. A medical bedside angle measuring device and medical bed was designed. The measuring device was convenient for the clinicians to read the raised angle in time, improving the working efficiency, and the structure was simple and the operation was convenient. The whole device mainly included panel, unfolding device and medical bed with bed angle measuring device on the panel. There was an angle display area, with the range of display angle was 0 degree angle to 75 degree angle which was adjusted to the corresponding angle according to the needs of the patient's condition under usage. The angle corresponding to the horizontal measurement line was the angle of elevating the head of the bed. The newly invented medical bedside angle measuring device and the medical bed could help the clinical medical staff know the patient's position at a glance, raising the bed head accurately, and making it convenient to use. It provided a good solution for clinical application and it was worth to popularize.

Background And Purpose: Compare breast cancer tumour bed (TB) delineation using stabilised hyaluronic acid (sHA) gel and MRI-simulation versus surgical clips and CT-simulation within same patient cohort.
Materials And Methods: Prospective single arm study of patients undergoing breast conserving surgery. Patients had both clips (≥5) and sHA gel markers inserted to define the TB and underwent MRI and CT simulation scans.

Tumor microenvironment governs various therapeutic tolerability of cancer such as ferroptosis and immunotherapy through rewiring tumor metabolic reprogramming like Warburg metabolism. Highly expressed carbonic anhydrases (CA) in tumor that maintaining the delicate metabolic homeostasis is thus the most potential target to be modulated to resolve the therapeutic tolerability. Hence, in this article, a self-healable and pH-responsive spermidine/ferrous ion hydrogel loaded with CA inhibitor (acetazolamide, ACZ) and glucose oxidase (ACZ/GOx@SPM-HA Gel) was fabricated through the Schiff-base reaction between spermidine-dextran and oxidized hyaluronic acid, along with ferrous coordination.

Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a non-atherosclerotic, non-inflammatory vascular disease of medium-sized arteries that causes abnormal cellular growth in arterial walls and most commonly affects young to middle-aged women (20-50 years of age). While FMD often involves the renal arteries, it can affect any arterial bed. FMD has a characteristic angiographic appearance of a "string of beads.

Nitrous oxide (NO) abuse is becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Moreover, the use of NO combined with other substances, such as alcohol, is also common. Accidental deaths associated with NO abuse are rare in forensic practice, with most fatal cases involving continuous inhalation equipment or exposure in a confined space.

Objective: Common examinations for diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are polysomnography (PSG) and home sleep apnea testing (HSAT). However, both PSG and HSAT require that sensors be attached to a subject, which may disturb their sleep and affect the results. Hence, in this study, we aimed to verify a wireless radar framework combined with deep learning techniques to screen for the risk of OSA in home-based environments.
