Less Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery via Right Minithoracotomy
Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2006 Current trends in cardiac surgical intervention are moving toward less invasiveness, with smaller wound or sternum-sparing, less pump time or off-pump, and beating rather than arrested heart.

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.P‐ or pyrene‐type delayed fluorescence is the original name of triplet‐triplet annihilation. However, pyrene is a poor annihilator. Silylethynyl substitution improves the energetics of pyrene and prevents excimer formation, enabling red‐to‐blue photon upconversion with 29% efficiency. We find tuning substituent steric bulk is key to achieving this high

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 367, Issue 5, March 4, 2025.Abstract Mg(SPh)2 has been found to be a highly active catalyst in photocatalytic alkylation reactions of active methylene compounds with nonactivated alkenes. The desired reactions proceeded smoothly to afford the corresponding alkylated products in high yields with low catalyst loadings (0.2–0.3 mol%). This protocol is applicable to a continuous‐flow

Bilirubin Targeting WNK1 to Alleviate NLRP3‐Mediated Neuroinflammation
Advanced Science, EarlyView.At physiological concentrations, bilirubin binds to the kinase domain of WNK1, thereby augmenting its activity and facilitating the phosphorylation of downstream SPAK/OSR1. This phosphorylation inhibits KCC2 activity, leading to elevate intracellular chloride levels in neurons.

Morphogenesis of the Sternum in Quail Embryos [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The flat bone develops through intramembranous ossification, in which the mesenchymal cells are directly driven towards osteogenic lineage without the formation of cartilage template. While long bone develops through endochondral ossification, where cartilage template act as an intermediate stage between mesenchymal and bone tissues. Although the avian

Advanced Science, EarlyView.S‐ketamine binds directly to SIRT2, facilitating its interaction with NF‐κB p65. This interaction reduces the acetylation of NF‐κB p65 and inhibits its activation, thereby exerting anti‐inflammatory and antidepressant effects. Created by BioRender.

Plasmacytoma of the Sternum with Amyloid Deposition – A Cytological Diagnosis
Archives of Medicine and Health SciencesPlasmacytoma with amyloid deposition to be diagnosed on cytology is rare. In the absence of typical clinical presentation and radiological findings, the diagnosis of plasmacytoma may not be suspected.

Shear loading of costal cartilage [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 A series of tests were performed on a single post-mortem human subject at various length scales. First, tabletop tests were performed. Next, the ribs and intercostal muscles were tested with the view to characterize the load transfer between the ribs. Finally, the costal cartilage was tested under shear loading, as it plays an important in the transfer
