Takayasu Arteritis (TA) is a chronic idiopathic granulomatous pan-arteritis affecting the pulmonary artery, the aorta, and its principal derived branches. The majority of TA patients are female (82.9%-97.0%). Due to the inflammatory character of the illness, arterial stenosis therapy must be treated differently than the atherosclerosis process. In this review paper, we outline a strategy using real-world challenging cases.

Temporomandibular disorders are a group of craniomaxillofacial disorders mainly characterized by pain and motor dysfunction of the temporomandibular joints and surrounding masticatory muscles. Clinically, patients with temporomandibular disorders often display central nervous system dysfunction, such as negative mood disorders, but the underlying cause remains unclear. Recent developments in neuroimaging techniques have facilitated new understanding.

Cryopreservation, the use of very low temperatures to preserve structurally intact living cells and tissues, has seen exponential growth in the field of fertilization (IVF). In the last decade, cryopreservation of embryos and freeze-all protocols have become an essential aspect and a prerequisite for a successful IVF outcome. Moreover, vitrification, which is a fast and safe cryopreservation method, has proved to be an effective choice for cryopreserving gametes and embryos.

Objective: One technique for tailoring interventions and matching evidence-based procedures to idiographic problems is just-in-time adaptive approaches, also referred to as ecological momentary intervention. These technology-based approaches involve real-time delivery of evidence-based skills when most needed, which can be tailored to individual data inputs. The current article reviews just-in-time adaptive ecological momentary assessment (JITA-EMA; Schneider et al.
