Virtual reality head-mounted displays (VR-HMDs) are crucial to Metaverse which appears to be one of the most popular terms to have been adopted over the internet recently. It provides basic infrastructure and entrance to cater for the next evolution of social interaction, and it has already been widely used in many fields. The VR-HMDs with traditional aspherical or Fresnel optics are not suitable for long-term usage because of the image quality, system size, and weight. In this study, we designed and developed a large exit pupil diameter (EPD), compact, and lightweight VR-HMD with catadioptric optics. The mathematical formula for designing the catadioptric VR optics is derived. The reason why this kind of immersive VR optics could achieve a compact size and large EPD simultaneously is answered. Various catadioptric forms are systematically proposed and compared. The design can achieve a diagonal field of view (FOV) of 96° at -1 diopter, with an EPD of 10 mm at 11 mm eye relief (ERF). The overall length (OAL) of the system was less than 20 mm. A prototype of a compact catadioptric VR-HMD system was successfully developed.

Colorectal cancer is the third most diagnosed malignancy worldwide and survival outcomes remain poor. Research is focused on the identification of novel prognostic and predictive biomarkers to improve clinical practice. There is robust evidence in the literature that inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL6) is elevated systemically in CRC patients and that this phenomenon is a predictor of poor survival outcome.

Purpose: To explore the prevalence of anhedonia (ANH) in major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment expectation and satisfaction among patients with MDD and physicians in the Asia-Pacific region.
Methods: This cross-sectional web-based survey was conducted in April-May 2023 among physicians and individuals aged ≥18 years with self-reported physician diagnosis of MDD (9-item Patient Health Questionnaire [PHQ-9] score ≥ 10) further stratified by anhedonia as measured by the Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS): MDD-ANH (SHAPS score > 2) and MDD non-ANH (SHAPS score ≤ 2). The study assessed the prevalence of anhedonia in MDD as well as the perspectives on the treatment of anhedonia in MDD in terms of expectations and satisfaction among patients and physicians.

Introduction: Biomineralization has been increasingly adopted for the synthesis of advanced materials with superior properties. Hierarchical architecture growth mimicking biomineralization has been studied using various organic molecules to template inorganic materials with controlled morphology. In our previous study, self-assembled Sr/CS/G(SrCO-chitosan-gelatin) aggregates were fabricated using electrophoretic deposition (EPD).

Objective: This study aims to explore the efficacy of Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD) for collagen type I coating on titanium implants and its subsequent mineralization to improve osseointegration and bone regeneration.
Methods: Titanium disks were prepared with a sandblasted, large grit and acid-etched (SLA) surface. EPD was employed to deposit collagen type I onto the titanium surfaces, followed by two modes of mineralization: extra-fibril mineralization (EFM) and inter-fibril mineralization (IFM).
