Light‐Triggered CRISPR/Cas12a for Genomic Editing and Tumor Regression
A photo‐triggered CRISPR/Cas12a machinery for gene editing is introduced. The machinery is applied for endogenous DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) gene editing and for in vitro disruption of the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) gene. The machinery is used for in vivo knockout and disruption of the HGF gene in HepG2 tumors, resulting in effective apoptosis

Real-time Surgical Tools Recognition in Total Knee Arthroplasty Using Deep Neural Networks [PDF]
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a commonly performed surgical procedure to mitigate knee pain and improve functions for people with knee arthritis. The procedure is complicated due to the different surgical tools used in the stages of surgery. The recognition of surgical tools in real-time can be a solution to simplify surgical procedures for the ...

IGF‐1 levels above 174.9 ng/mL were associated with better wound healing and lower postoperative inflammation. Higher IGF‐1 levels correlated with improved anal function at 7 and 14 days post‐surgery. ABSTRACT Background Anal fistula is a chronic condition characterized by an abnormal tract between the anal canal and perianal skin, often leading to ...
