Dose‐Dependent Efficacy of Radioiodine Therapy in Pediatric Graves’ Disease: A Retrospective Study of Hypothyroidism Risk and the Predictive Role of Thyroid Hormone Parameters

iRADIOLOGY, EarlyView.
RAI therapy demonstrated time‐dependent efficacy in pediatric Graves' disease, with gradually increasing treatment success and hypothyroidism incidence during follow‐up. Higher planned activity (≥ 0.15 mCi/g) was associated with a higher successful rate than lower planned activity (< 0.15 mCi/g), and LASSO analysis identified FT3 and TSH as candidate ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
