Objective: To determine whether using 12.5° Slocum-like triple pelvic osteotomy (TPO) plates would create sufficient femoral head coverage and lower the occurrence of overrotation compared with using 20° TPO plates in dogs with hip dysplasia.
Study Design: Prospective clinical study.
Sample Population: Thirty-five dogs with hip dysplasia (38 hips).
Methods: Nineteen hips were surgically treated with a custom-made Slocum-type 12.5° TPO plate, and these were matched to 19 hips surgically treated with a 20° commercial Slocum TPO plate. Hips were case matched according to size and breed. Ortolani sign, angles of subluxation and reduction, distraction index, and femoral head coverage (FHC) were compared between groups. Excessive coverage was defined as >80%.
Results: In the 12.5° group, FHC was ≥50% in all hips, with mean FHC (67%), gain (37%), and excessive coverage (11%) all significantly less than in the 20° group (79%, 54%, and 42%, respectively).
Conclusion: The 12.5° plate produced sufficient FHC compared with the 20° plate, with fewer hips with excessive coverage.
Clinical Significance: The 12.5° TPO plate may result in sufficient FHC with a lower occurrence of excessive coverage compared with 20° plates.

Article Synopsis
- Endotoxins (LPS) are problematic in bacterial protein production, but researchers developed a method using a special bacterium that lacks LPS.
- They successfully created endotoxin-free proteins, including functional green fluorescent protein and the cytokine TNF-α, and significantly reduced contamination levels.
- This new system also enabled the production of a specific antibody targeting the coronavirus spike protein and a rheumatoid arthritis drug, showcasing its potential for future applications in biotechnology.

ATR is a PI3K-like kinase protein, regulating checkpoint responses to DNA damage and replication stress. Apart from its checkpoint function in the nucleus, ATR actively engages in an antiapoptotic role at mitochondria following DNA damage. The different functions of ATR in the nucleus and cytoplasm are carried out by two prolyl isomeric forms of ATR: - and -ATR, respectively.

Lithium- and manganese-rich layered oxides (LMLOs, ≥ 250 mAh g ) with polycrystalline morphology always suffer from severe voltage decay upon cycling because of the anisotropic lattice strain and oxygen release induced chemo-mechanical breakdown. Herein, a Co-free single-crystalline LMLO, that is, Li[Li Ni Mn ]O (LLNMO-SC), is prepared via a Li /Na ion-exchange reaction. In situ synchrotron-based X-ray diffraction (sXRD) results demonstrate that relatively small changes in lattice parameters and reduced average micro-strain are observed in LLNMO-SC compared to its polycrystalline counterpart (LLNMO-PC) during the charge-discharge process.

Two new and efficient cationic yellow-emissive Ir (III) complexes (Ir1 and Ir2) are rationally designed by using 2-(4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-4-methylquinoline as the main ligand, and, respectively, 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridyl and 4,4'-dimethoxy-2,2'-bipyridyl as the ancillary ligands. Both complexes show enhanced phosphorescence (546 nm with 572 nm as shoulder and high phosphorescent quantum efficiency in solution, which is in favor of efficient solution-processed phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes. Compared with Ir2, the Ir1-based device displays excellent device performance, with maximum external quantum efficiency, current efficiency, and power efficiency of up to 7.

In this paper, SiO aerogels were prepared by a sol-gel method. Using Ketjen Black (KB), Super P (SP) and Acetylene Black (AB) as a conductive agent, respectively, the effects of the structure and morphology of the three conductive agents on the electrochemical performance of SiO gel anode were systematically investigated and compared. The results show that KB provides far better cycling and rate performance than SP and AB for SiO anode electrodes, with a reversible specific capacity of 351.
