Interventional occlusion of Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is generally efficacious and complications such as delayed occluder displacement are infrequent. Herein, we report a case of 24-year-old female with a history of unsuccessful PDA closures, who subsequently experienced delayed occluder displacement into the left main pulmonary artery. Despite numerous unsuccessful catheter-based interventions, thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) was successfully executed. This procedure effectively resolved the PDA without any postprocedural complications. This case highlights the efficacy and safety of TEVAR as a viable alternative for managing complex PDA cases involving occluder displacement.

Statement Of Problem: Three-dimensional (3D) printing and milling technologies have been increasingly used in prosthodontic practice for fabricating digital prostheses. Nevertheless, evidence relating to the wear resistance of denture teeth fabricated using these methods is lacking.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the wear resistance exhibited by denture teeth fabricated using 3D printing and milling technologies with prefabricated denture teeth.

The efficiency and accuracy of CRISPR-Cas9 targeting varies considerably across genomic targets and remains a persistent issue for using this system in cells. Studies have shown that the use of 5' truncated single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) can reduce the rate of unwanted off-target recognition while still maintaining on-target specificity. However, it is not well-understood how reducing target complementarity enhances specificity or how truncation past 15 nucleotides (nts) prevents full Cas9 activation without compromising on-target binding.

Article Synopsis
- * A case is presented where a patient experienced occluder loss during ASD closure, but the detached device was successfully recovered using catheter intervention, allowing for a second closure attempt.
- * The case underscores the need for clinicians to be aware of potential complications in routine ASD procedures, emphasizing the importance of careful evaluation, standardized treatment protocols, and follow-up care.
A 'twice closed' patent foramen ovale: a case report of percutaneous management of a residual interatrial shunt in a patient with persistent migraine symptoms.

Article Synopsis
- A 32-year-old woman experienced recurring migraines after having a percutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure, which was initially done due to a previous embolism.
- Transoesophageal echocardiography revealed that the original PFO closure device was partially displaced, leading to a residual interatrial shunt.
- After successfully placing a second occluder to overlap with the first, the patient reported no migraines during a 6-month follow-up, suggesting this approach effectively managed her condition.
