Medical instruments for newborns and infants are newly developed the dimensions of which carefully follow infantile anatomic and physiologic features. Instruments are characterized by small weight, flexibility, and small dimensions of working parts. This reduces tissue injuries, makes better view of the operative field and optimizes working conditions during surgery.

Ann Med
December 2024
Department of Nephrology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan, China.
Background: A series of cases have reported graft delamination as a rare complication of early-cannulation arteriovenous graft (ecAVG). The unique multilayer structure of ecAVGs contributes to the property of cannulation as early as hours after implantation, but on other hand it takes the risk of graft delamination. However, the underlying mechanism and management of graft delamination as well as its effects on the long-term patency of ecAVGs have not been systemically analyzed.

Crafting and Authenticating Prognostic Nomograms for Overall and Cancer-specific Survival in Pediatric Small Renal Masses: A Comprehensive Two-Decade Cohort Study.
Technol Cancer Res Treat
October 2024
Department of Urology, Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, P. R. China.
Background: The intricate task of diagnosing and managing small renal masses (SRMs) has become progressively convoluted within the realm of clinical practice. Contemporary clinical prediction instruments may succumb to a gradual decay in precision, coupled with an absence of unambiguous guidelines to navigate patient management.
Methods: This investigation was devised to formulate and authenticate nomograms for the overall survival (OS) and cancer- specific survival (CSS) among patients afflicted with SRMs.
