Microwave therapy is emerging as an effective, well-tolerated and safe treatment modality for cutaneous warts but there is limited data in paediatric patients. In our cohort of 35 paediatric patients with recalcitrant warts, 68.6% (24/35) demonstrated complete resolution after an average of three microwave treatment sessions. There were no reports of ulceration or blistering but 22.9% (8/35) of patients reported pain that required discontinuation of microwave therapy. This study provides evidence that microwave therapy can be used for the treatment of warts in paediatric patients.

Purpose: As microwave ablation continues to be used in patients with inoperable stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), it is particularly important to monitor efficacy. Whether plasma ctDNA detection can predict its efficacy should be illustrated.
Methods: We recruited 43 patients with inoperative stage I NSCLC, all of whom underwent biopsy-synchronous microwave ablation (MWA).

This editorial comments on a study by Zuo . The focus is on the efficacy of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with camrelizumab and apatinib (the TRIPLET regimen), alongside microwave ablation therapy, in treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The potential application of this combination therapy for patients with advanced HCC is evaluated.

The highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) virus threatens animal and human health globally. Innovative strategies are crucial for mitigating risks associated with airborne transmission and preventing outbreaks. In this study, we sought to investigate the efficacy of microwave inactivation against aerosolized A(H5N1) virus by identifying the optimal frequency band for a 10-min exposure and evaluating the impact of varying exposure times on virus inactivation.

This work reports the synthesis of a copper metal complex with the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ibuprofen, and 2,2'-dipyridylamine employing microwave-assisted synthesis (MWAS). To the best of authors knowledge, this is the first study reporting a NSAID-based complex achieved through MWAS. The coordination compound was characterised by elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry.

To predict local progression after microwave ablation (MWA) in patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we developed a CT-based radiomics model. Postoperative CT images were used. The intraclass correlation coefficients, two-sample t-test, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, and Pearson correlation analysis were applied to select radiomics features and establish radiomics score.
