Emerging technologies are changing hand surgery by improving surgical precision, minimizing tissue disruption, and expediting patient recovery. These advancements have the potential to revolutionize surgical procedures, patient outcomes, and rehabilitation processes. However, there are still challenges that need to be addressed before these technologies can be widely adopted. These challenges include the learning curve for surgeons, high costs, and ethical considerations. Future research should focus on addressing the limitations of these technologies, exploring their long-term effects, and evaluating their cost-effectiveness. To successfully implement them, a collaborative approach involving clinicians, researchers, engineers, and policymakers is necessary. This review provides an overview of current and future trends in emerging technologies for hand orthopedic surgery.

Water pollution is a significant worldwide problem, and research studies in this field are still in progress to find strategies for removing pollutants from water. Among the others, adsorption process seems to exhibit several advantages, especially when biomasses are in use. This work proposes biochar from olive pomace pyrolysis for adsorbing contaminants from water, in synergistic combination with TiO, for constituting water-stable and recyclable composite chitosan-based sponges.

The size of InGaN micro-LEDs is continuously decreasing to meet the demands of various emerging applications, especially in tiny micro-displays such as AR/VR. However, the conventional pixel definition based on plasma etching significantly damages the mesa sidewalls, leading to a severe reduction in efficiency as the micro-LED size decreases. This seriously impedes the development and application of micro-LEDs.
