Department of Joint and Sports Medicine, Chaoyang Central Hospital, Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province, China.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) represents a major global health challenge with no ideal treatment options available. Early-stage treatment typically focuses on symptomatic relief of pain and stiffness; while late-stage patients can only opt for surgical interventions such as joint replacement to improve quality of life. Cell-free therapy based on extracellular vesicles (EVs) has offered a novel therapeutic approach for regulating bone metabolism and repairing cartilage, demonstrating emerging potential.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a major global health burden, necessitating more effective and selective therapeutic approaches. Nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems offer significant advantages by enhancing drug accumulation in tumors, reducing off-target toxicity, and overcoming resistance mechanisms. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in nanocarriers for CRC therapy, including passive targeting the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, and active targeting strategies that exploit specific tumor markers using ligands such as antibodies, peptides, and aptamers.

Telerobotic surgery: a comprehensive two-decade evolution and the integration of emerging technologies.

Int J Surg

September 2025

Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Xiang'an Hospital of Xiamen University, School of Medicine, Xiamen University, Xiamen, People's Republic of China.

Telerobotic surgery has undergone remarkable advances over the past two decades, driven by the integration of sophisticated robotic platforms and modern communication technologies, thereby alleviating many constraints of conventional surgical procedures. Building upon previous studies that focused on individual specialties or specific innovations, this review provides a comprehensive and integrated perspective by tracing the evolution of the field and highlighting applications in gastroenterology, urology, neurology, and cardiology. Landmark achievements include the 2001 transatlantic remote cholecystectomy and the introduction of next-generation platforms such as the Hinotori surgical robot, enabling low-latency remote interventions.
