Objectives: This study evaluated the clinical impact of the Sim&Size® simulation software on the endovascular treatment with flow-diverter stents of patients with unruptured saccular intracranial aneurysms.
Methods: This monocentric retrospective study evaluated a cohort of patients treated with flow-divert stents between June 1, 2014, and December 31, 2019, for cerebral aneurysms. Patients belonged to two groups, patients treated with and without the Sim&Size® simulation software. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses were used to evaluate the clinical impact of simulation software.
Results: Out of the 73 interventions involving 68 patients analyzed by the study, 76.7% were simulated using the Sim&Size® simulation software, and 23.3% were not. Patients treated with the simulation software had shorter stent lengths (16.00 mm vs. 20.00 mm -value = 0.001) and surgical time (100.00 min vs. 118.00 min -value = 0.496). Also, fewer of them required more than one stent (3.6% vs. 17.6% -value = 0.079). Three patients belonging to the non-stimulated group presented hemorrhagic complications.
Conclusions: Using the Sim&Size® simulation software for the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms with pipeline flow-diverter stents reduces the stent length.

Shallow whole-genome sequencing (sWGS) offers a cost-effective approach to detect copy number alterations (CNAs). However, there remains a gap for a standardized workflow specifically designed for sWGS analysis. To address this need, in this work we present SAMURAI, a bioinformatics pipeline specifically designed for analyzing CNAs from sWGS data in a standardized and reproducible manner.

Background: Tranexamic acid is an anti-fibrinolytic agent routinely used during hip and knee joint replacement surgery to minimize bleeding. Chronic kidney disease is a common chronic health problem seen among adults requiring major arthroplasty surgery. Tranexamic acid is renally cleared and may accumulate in chronic kidney disease.

A scheme for constructing models of the 'structure-glass transition temperature of a polymer' is proposed. It involves the representation of the molecular structure of a polymer through the architecture of monomer units represented through a simplified molecular input-line entry system (SMILES) and the fragments of local symmetry (FLS). The statistical quality of such models is quite good: the determination coefficient values for active training set, passive training set, calibration set, and validation set are 0.
