Harnessing Next‐Generation 3D Cancer Models to Elucidate Tumor‐Microbiome Crosstalk

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Centralizes the microbiome within 3D tumor‐microbiome model platforms, including spheroids, organoids, 3D‐bioprinted constructs, and microfluidic chips, each enabling structured host‐tumor‐microbe studies. These systems support bacterial colonization, facilitating investigation of microbial impacts on tumor growth, immunity, and therapy. The microbiome

Translation, Linguistic Validation, and Cultural Adaptation of the Bladder Cancer Index (BCI) Questionnaire Into the Persian (Farsi) Language and Comparing it With WHO Quality of Life Questionnaire: An Observational Study

Journal of Family and Reproductive Health, 2023
Objective: Whether ileal conduit diversion (ICD) or orthotopic neobladder (ONB) urinary diversion provides better quality of life (QoL) is still under debate. The Bladder Cancer Index (BCI) is a specific tool for bladder cancer (BCa) patients, providing

Developmental Hypoxia Enhances Kidney Organoid Complexity and Maturity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The current bottleneck in metanephric mesenchyme (MM)‐derived nephron organoid development is the absence of a connected network of collecting ducts (CD) derived from the ureteric bud (UB). To address this limitation, this study proposes a hypoxia‐based differentiation method that mimics the natural renal developmental environment, enabling the ...

Evaluation of silk fibroin-based urinary conduits in a porcine model of urinary diversion

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Background: The primary strategy for urinary diversion in radical cystectomy patients involves incorporation of autologous gastrointestinal conduits into the urinary tract which leads to deleterious consequences including chronic infections and metabolic

Studer Orthotopic Neobladder: A Modified Surgical Technique [PDF]

, 2016
OBJECTIVE: A modified technique for orthotopic ileal neobladder preparation is described. The Studer technique is the method most frequently used worldwide and seems to be an ideal reconstructive solution after radical cystectomy.

Ultrafine Molybdenum Wire Braided Neurointerventional Implants: Bridging Biodegradability and Neurovascular Safety for Stroke Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Molybdenum (Mo), with its unique strength, uniform corrosion, and radiopacity, enables innovative biodegradable implants for transformative stroke therapy. Abstract Neurovascular implants for stroke intervention face a critical dilemma: permanent devices (e.g., nitinol stents, platinum coils) often trigger chronic inflammation and recurrence, whereas ...
