Herein, we have presented the results of Density Functional Theory (DFT) based calculations of inclusion complexes of lapatinib and dasatinib with calix[n]arene macrocycles. A total of 48 calix [n]arene complexes were modeled via considering varied ring sizes (n = 4,5,6,8) and upper-rim functionalization viz. SOH, tert-Butyl, iso-Propyl, COOH, CHOH, and CHNH. From the results of multilevel molecular docking, DFT energetics, and reactivity descriptors; it has been demonstrated that dasatinib form optimal complexes with calix 4f, 3f (-35 to -40 kcal/mol). Moreover, for lapatinib, hosts 3f, 4a, 1f, 3d have the capability to generate promising complexes (>35 kcal/mol). Based on counterpoise corrected binding energies (E) and global reactivity descriptors, we anticipate that the proposed complexes can vitally be used as analogous to carrier-mediated-drug-delivery.

Background: Dialysis in neonates with ESKD is often associated with multiple comorbidities and the need for more intensified dialysis regimens. With recent advances in prenatal interventions and infant specific KRT, survival of neonates with ESKD has improved over the last decade. Little is known however about the impact on the health care system of improved survival in this population.

Wrist biomechanics remain incompletely understood due to the complexity of experimental measurements in this multi-bone joint system. Finite element analysis provides a powerful alternative for investigating internal variables such as carpal kinematics and displacement patterns. This technical brief compares two bone representation approaches, all-cortical versus cortical-trabecular, using two distinct finite element models developed from the same wrist CT dataset.

Introduction: Three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology has increasingly gained attention in orthopedic oncology, where complex tumor resections and reconstructions demand high precision. 3DP enables the creation of patient-specific models and prostheses, which can improve postoperative quality of life for patients while assisting surgeons in preoperative planning, enhancing surgical accuracy, and improving outcomes in complex oncologic cases. Despite its potential, comprehensive data on the effectiveness and applications of 3DP in orthopedic oncology are limited.

Objectives: Primary repair of the common arterial trunk is still burdened by high mortality rates. Because of the low incidence and complexity of common arterial trunk, evidence is limited to reports with small sample sizes, and issues such as the ideal surgical timing to address the primary repair are still debated. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the pooled mortality, morbidity, and reoperation rates after common arterial trunk primary repair.
