Shock wave focusing using geometrical shock dynamics [PDF]
A finite-difference numerical method for geometrical shock dynamics has been developed based on the analogy between the nonlinear ray equations and the supersonic potential equation.

Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gallbladder drainage using a double‐pigtail plastic stent (DPPS) harbors the risk of bile leakage and pneumoperitoneum through the anastomosis site. When the inner sheath of the DPPS system is retracted halfway back into the stent, multiple side holes emerge on the stent end, which accelerates the active gallbladder lavage.

Eulerian-Lagrangian method for simulation of cloud cavitation [PDF]
We present a coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian method to simulate cloud cavitation in a compressible liquid. The method is designed to capture the strong, volumetric oscillations of each bubble and the bubble-scattered acoustics.

ABSTRACT Objectives Post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) is an adverse event of ERCP‐related procedures. The present study aimed to evaluate the incidence of PEP in patients with an intact papilla who underwent ERCP for common bile duct stones and identify risk factors and preventive measures for PEP.

Effective conservative therapy of acute anal fissure
An acute anal fissure causes sharp pains during stool and after defecation. The disease is often accompanied by exacerbation of hemorrhoid, which is often observed in women at late pregnancy terms and after difficult delivery.

Ferroptosis-associated genes and compounds in renal cell carcinoma
As the main type of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), clear cell RCC (ccRCC) is often associated with the deletion or mutation of the von Hippel Lindau (VHL) gene, enhancement of glucose and lipid metabolism, and heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment ...

Computational Models of Material Interfaces for the Study of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a noninvasive treatment for a variety of musculoskeletal ailments. A shock wave is generated in water and then focused using an acoustic lens or reflector so the energy of the wave is concentrated in a small ...
