BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis is a significant cause of disability, resulting in increased joint replacement surgeries and health care costs. Establishing benchmarks that more accurately predict surgical duration could help to decrease costs, maximize efficiency, and improve patient experience. We compared the anesthesia-controlled time (ACT) and surgery-controlled time (SCT) of primary total knee (TKA) and total hip arthroplasties (THA) between an academic medical center (AMC) and a community hospital (CH) for 2 orthopedic surgeons...

Due to increasing urbanization and population growth, municipal solid waste management (MSWM) is a significant environmental concern in developing countries. Inadequate waste management systems lead to environmental pollution, health hazards, and economic losses. While considering the challenges and limitations, policymakers and authorities need to opt for such waste management scenarios that are environmentally friendly and resolve energy issues. Ten MSWM scenarios were developed and evaluated using seven different criteria...

BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that there is an influence of socioeconomic status (SES) on association between pregnancy complications and premature coronary artery disease (PCAD) risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This project involved a data linkage approach merging three databases of South Australian cohorts using retrospective, age-matched case-control study design. Cases ( n  = 721), that is, women aged <60 years from Coronary Angiogram Database of South Australia (CADOSA) were linked to South Australian Perinatal Statistics Collection (SAPSC) to ascertain prior pregnancy outcomes and SES...

Eating disorders are on the rise with a significant impact on mental health. Misuse of social media platforms is likely a significant contributing factor. This trend is especially pronounced among adolescents, who are increasingly using social media platforms for communications, building relationships, learning and entertainment. The unsupervised sharing of social media content can have drastic consequences on the physical and psychological wellbeing of youth, which often takes the form of "thinspiration" or "fitspiration"...

BACKGROUND: Maintenance after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) with hypomethylating agents has yielded conflicting results. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a single center retrospective matched-control analysis with the study group (5-azacitidine [AZA] group) including adults with FLT3-negative acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who received post-transplant AZA maintenance off clinical trial (n = 93). A matched control group was comprised of contemporaneous AML/MDS patients who did not receive any maintenance (n = 357)...

CONTEXT: The purpose of the S01-S05 series of end-capped modified donor chromophores is to amplify the energy conversion efficiency of organic solar cells. Using quantum chemical modeling, the photophysical and photoelectric characteristics of the S01-S05 geometries are examined. METHOD: The influence of side chain replacement on multiple parameters, including the density of states (DOS), molecular orbital analysis (FMOS ), exciton-binding energy (Eb ), molecular electrostatic potential analysis, dipole moment (μ), and photovoltaic characteristics including open circuit voltage (VOC ), and PCE at minimal energy state geometries, has been investigated employing density functional theory along with TD-DFT analysis...

Invasive methods such as blood collection and biopsy are commonly used for testing liver and kidney function, which are painful, time-consuming, require trained personnel, and may not be easily accessible to people for their routine checkup. Early diagnosis of liver and kidney diseases can prevent severe symptoms and ensure better management of these patients. Emerging approaches such as breath and sweat analysis have shown potential as non-invasive methods for disease diagnosis. Among the many markers, ammonia is often used as a biomarker for the monitoring of liver and kidney functions...

UNLABELLED: A 52-year-old female with a history of chronic lymphoedema and untreated deep vein thrombosis, presented with non-specific right-sided chest pain. A CT angiogram confirmed bilateral inferior pulmonary vein thromboses (PVT). A comprehensive hypercoagulable workup and age-appropriate cancer screening were unremarkable; the lack of associated risk factors confirmed idiopathic PVT. The management strategy of systemic anticoagulation with apixaban and multidisciplinary follow-up underscores the treatment challenges of rare presentations...

OBJECTIVE: Successful total hip arthroplasty relies on accurate preoperative planning. However, the conventional preoperative planning, a two-dimensional method using X-ray template, has shown poor reliability of predicting component size. To our knowledge, artificial intelligence technology assisted three-dimensional preoperative planning is promising to improve the accuracy of preoperative planning but there is a dearth of clinical evidence. Therefore, in this study we compared the prediction accuracy of these two maneuvers...

Background: Small, randomized trials of cervical artery dissection (CAD) patients showed conflicting results regarding optimal stroke prevention strategies. We aimed to compare outcomes in patients with CAD treated with antiplatelets versus anticoagulation. Methods: This is a multi-center observational retrospective international study (16 countries, 63 sites) that included CAD patients without major trauma. The exposure was antithrombotic treatment type (anticoagulation vs. antiplatelets) and outcomes were subsequent ischemic stroke and major hemorrhage (intracranial or extracranial hemorrhage)...

BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation-induced joint damage, which can cause lasting disability. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment of RA are crucial. Herein, we evaluated whether exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) could be served as promising biomarkers that can accelerate the diagnosis of RA and development of therapies for RA. METHODS: First, we performed small RNA sequencing to determine the miRNA profiles of serum exosomes within a screening cohort comprised of 18 untreated active RA patients, along with 18 age and gender-matched healthy controls (HCs)...

Pro-Ictal State in Human Temporal Lobe EpilepsyThe presence of pathologic pro-ictal states among a plethora of otherwise physiologic (e.g., sleep-wake cycle) states has not been established. In this series of 15 temporal lobe epilepsy patients, 1800 patient-hours of continuous thalamocortical electroencephalography data were analyzed. Distinct pro-ictal states were detected in each participant.

The development of environmentally friendly and safe chemical processes using renewable energy sources is important. In this study, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell was used for the tandem bromination of sp 3 carbon within a unique two-phase electrolyte system. By incorporation of a RuO x cocatalyst, the Ta3 N5 photoelectrode demonstrated a remarkable selectivity for Br2 close to 100%. The kinetic study for charge carriers of photoelectrodes reveals that the improved charge transfer at Ta3 N5 /RuO x interfaces contributed to excellent photoelectrochemical Br2 evolution activity...

In recent decades, microscopic colitis (MC) has become increasingly recognized as a common contributor to diarrhea and lower gastrointestinal symptoms, particularly among the older demographic. The condition is distinguished by persistent diarrhea with loose watery stools, and endoscopic examination is typically normal with characteristic histopathologic findings. MC is rarely seen under 30 years of age and is less common in males. Our case highlights an exceedingly uncommon clinical setting as it involves a young male who was diagnosed with collagenous colitis...

This study reports for the first time the adsorption capacity of a novel adsorbent Croton bonplandianus Baill. biochar. Its adsorption capacity was further enhanced by loading magnetic composites on it, which makes it an efficient medium for the adsorption of dyes. Two azo dyes, Basic Brown 1 (BB1 ) and Basic Orange 2 (BO2 ), were studied for their effective adsorption from aqueous media. A comprehensive characterization was performed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to study the properties of Fe2 O3 -loaded C...
