Background: Nonweightbearing preoperative assessments avoid quadriceps contraction that tends to affect patellar motion and appear to be inaccurate in quantifying anatomic factors, which can lead to incorrect corrections and postoperative complications.
Questions/purposes: (1) Does the relationship of patellar axial malalignment and other anatomic factors change during weightbearing? (2) What anatomic factor was most strongly correlated with recurrent patellar dislocation during weightbearing?
Methods: This prospective, comparative, observational study recruited participants at our institution between January 2023 and September 2023. During this time, all patients with recurrent patellar dislocations received both weightbearing and nonweightbearing CT scans; control patients who received unilateral CT scans because of injuries or benign tumors received both weightbearing and nonweightbearing CT scans.

Background: This study aimed to investigate knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) toward coronary heart disease (CHD) secondary prevention among CHD patients.
Methods: This web-based cross-sectional study enrolled patients with CHD who visited the Yangpu District Central Hospital in Shanghai (China) between October 18, 2022, and March 25, 2023. The administered questionnaire assessed demographic information and KAP; factors associated with good practice were identified by multivariate logistic regression.

Background: Despite numerous operative and non-operative treatment modalities, patients with glioblastoma (GBM) have a dismal prognosis. Identifying predictors of survival and recurrence is an essential strategy for guiding treatment decisions, and existing literature demonstrates associations between hematologic data and clinical outcomes in cancer patients. As such, we provide a novel analysis that examines associations between preoperative hematologic data and postoperative outcomes following GBM resection.

To attenuate the intestinal toxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs from rectal suppositories and enhance their chemotherapeutic outcome is greatly significant, but maintains a challenge. In this work, a new strategy of local synergistic hydrogenochemotherapy is proposed to attenuate side effects and enhance therapeutic efficacy based on the anti-cancer selectivity and normal cells-protecting effect of H, and construct a novel anti-cancer formulation of rectal suppository (5-FU/CSN@FAG) by fatty acid glycerides (FAG) encapsulating 5-fluorouracil (5-FU, a first-line drug for colorectal cancer treatment) and cerium silicide nanoparticles (CSN) with a sustained hydrolytic H release behavior which is synchronous with 5-FU release. The 3-week treatment with the suppository once a day can not only completely eradicate colon tumors without tumor recurrence after suppository administration withdrawal, but also efficiently protect the intestinal tract from chemotherapeutic damage.

Background: Stargardt disease type 1 (STGD1) is a progressive retinal disorder caused by bi-allelic variants in the ABCA4 gene. A recurrent variant at the exon-intron junction of exon 6, c.768G>T, causes a 35-nt elongation of exon 6 that leads to premature termination of protein synthesis.
