Studies have shown that the school atmosphere perceived by students can play a key role in promoting their well-being and success in school. No study to date has analyzed whether the students' perceived school atmosphere might contribute to school refusal (SR), which in turn might reduce students' engagement and promote underachievement. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 528 Italian high school students (M = 16.

Theranostic Contact Lens for Ocular Cystinosis Utilizing Gold Nanoparticles.

Biosensors (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Optometry, Seoul National University of Science and Technology, 232 Gongneung-ro, Nowon-gu, Seoul 01811, Republic of Korea.

Ocular cystinosis is a disease in which accumulated cystine crystals cause damage to the eyes, necessitating timely treatment and ongoing monitoring of cystine levels. The current treatment involves frequent administration of cysteamine eye drops, which suffer from low bioavailability and can lead to drug toxicity, making it essential to prescribe an appropriate dosage based on the patient's condition. Additionally, cystine crystal levels are typically assessed subjectively via slit-lamp examination, requiring frequent clinical visits and causing discomfort for the patient.

Early esophageal cancer with mucosal bridging in the resting room: A case report.

World J Gastrointest Endosc

January 2025

Department of Gastroenterology, The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230001, Anhui Province, China.

Background: Patients diagnosed with esophageal mucosal bridges often experience symptoms such as chest pain and dysphagia, which pose considerable challenges for endoscopic surgical interventions.

Case Summary: We present a case involving early-stage esophageal cancer discovered in a resting room, notable for the rare manifestation of esophageal mucosal bridging. Following a comprehensive multidisciplinary discussion and the development of a treatment strategy, we proceeded with endoscopic submucosal dissection for the patient.

This study aimed to prepare films using Xyloglucan (Xylo) and tea extract (TE) to treat aphthous stomatitis without causing discomfort. Xylo, which gelates by adding polyphenol, was used as a gelation agent, and TE, which contains epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) with antioxidant properties, was used as an active pharmaceutical agent. Two kinds of films, hydrogel and xerogel films, were prepared by mixing various amounts of Xylo and TE.

Vision-based postural balance assessment of sit-to-stand transitions performed by younger and older adults.

Gait Posture

January 2025

Department of Industrial Engineering and Management, Yuan Ze University, 135 Yuan Tung Road, Chungli District, Taoyuan, Taiwan. Electronic address:

Background: The use of inertial measurement units (IMUs) in assessing fall risk is often limited by subject discomfort and challenges in data interpretation. Additionally, there is a scarcity of research on attitude estimation features. To address these issues, we explored novel features and representation methods in the context of sit-to-stand transitions.
