PURPOSE: Despite decades of clinical success with microrough implant surfaces, persistent challenges-particularly the biological trade-off between osteoblast proliferation and differentiation-highlight the need for novel surface design strategies. This review investigates the potential of meso-scale topography (10-500 μm) as a promising and underexplored dimension in implant surface engineering, situated between macro-level implant geometry and conventional microroughness. METHODS: A systematic review, supplemented by a targeted literature search, was conducted to evaluate the biological and m

BACKGROUND: There are no validated tools for the clinical neurological assessment of patients with leptomeningeal metastases (LM). However, clinical examination during the course of the disease guides medical management and is part of response assessment in clinical trials. Because neuroimaging may not always be obtained owing to rapid clinical deterioration, clinical neurological assessment of LM is essential, and standardization is important to minimize rater disagreement. METHODS: The Response Assessment in Neuro-oncology-LM group launched a 2-step process, aiming at improving and standardi

Purpose: To investigate the prognostic value of the index of cardio-electrophysiological balance (ICEB) and its association with major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and cardiovascular death in diabetic patients complicated with coronary heart disease. Methods: A total of 920 diabetic patients were enrolled in this longitudinal study. Participants were categorized into three groups based on their ICEB levels: normal ICEB, low ICEB, and high ICEB. The primary outcome was the occurrence of MACE, and secondary outcomes included cardiovascular death, coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure (HF)

The accurate and efficient calculation of protein-protein binding affinities is an essential component in antibody and antigen design and optimization, and in computer modeling of antibody affinity maturation. Such calculations remain challenging despite advances in computer hardware and algorithms, primarily because proteins are flexible molecules, and thus, require explicit or implicit incorporation of multiple conformational states into the computational procedure. The astronomical size of the amino acid sequence space further compounds the challenge by requiring predictions to be computed
