Near‐infrared light‐activated aptamer‐based nanoprobe for spatiotemporally resolved detection of L‐lactate in colorectal cancer

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A near‐infrared (NIR) light‐activated “lock‐key” nanodevice is reported for spatiotemporally resolved detection of intratumoral L‐lactate. The system stays silent until deep‐penetrating NIR light remotely unlocks its function, allowing for precise sensing within tumors.

Utility of Fine Needle Aspiration Supernatant for Real‐Time PCR–Based Mutation Analysis in Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer

Diagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The emergence of personalized therapy and molecular sequencing has significantly transformed the management of advanced non–small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Supernatants obtained from fine needle aspiration (FNA) have been shown to be a reliable source of high‐quality nucleic acid for molecular testing.

Single‐stage orthognathic correction of campylorrhinus lateralis in foals using transection and fixation: Surgical description and outcome of four horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Campylorrhinus lateralis (‘wry nose’) is a rare congenital maxillofacial deformity of foals resulting in compromise of the airway and severe class 4 malocclusion. Various surgical techniques to correct the deformity have been described, but contemporary data on single‐stage transection and fixation, including use of a rib graft, and
