Article Abstract

Chittagong Medical College and Hospital (CMCH) in Chittagong, Bangladesh, and Mahidol-Oxford Tropical Medicine Research Unit (MORU) of Bangkok, Thailand, are partners in a highly successful and productive research collaboration that is now heading into its tenth year. It produced arguably one of the most important clinical trials in tropical medicine this decade, the South-East-Asia-Quinine-Artesuante-Malaria-Trial (SEAQUAMAT) study, and has continued to evolve and grow ever since. The collaboration has successfully completed a number of significant clinical studies which have given important new insights into the management and pathogenesis of malaria and, to date, generated 14 peer-reviewed international journal publications. With each passing year, the size of the collaboration continues to increase along with the number and complexity of research studies undertaken. It has also helped to provide valuable postgraduate training to develop clinical services and increase capacity for high quality research in Bangladesh. The partners have complementary knowledge, skills and expertise and share common goals and it is hoped that this will remain a highly successful collaboration long into the future.

The Lepidosauria is the most species-rich group of land-dwelling vertebrates. The group includes around 12,000 species of lizards and snakes (Squamata) and one species of Rhynchocephalia, the tuatara Sphenodon punctatus from New Zealand. Squamates owe their success to their generally small size, but also to their highly mobile skull that enables them to manipulate large prey.

Enhancing bonding and durability of polyaryletherketone (PAEK) restorations with nonthermal plasma activation and monomer-based priming.

J Prosthet Dent

September 2025

Associate Professor, School of Dentistry, College of Oral Medicine, Taipei Medical University, Taipei, Taiwan, ROC. Electronic address:

Statement Of Problem: While valued for their durability in dental prosthetics, polyaryletherketone (PAEK) materials, known for their chemical inertness and low surface energy, pose significant challenges in achieving durable adhesion to resin cements, a critical factor for the long-term success of dental restorations.

Purpose: This study evaluates the novel application of a methyl methacrylate-urethane dimethacrylate (MMA-UDMA) bonding primer following handheld nonthermal plasma (HNP) treatment to enhance the bonding performance and aging durability of PAEK materials with varying microfiller compositions, addressing the persistent challenge of achieving long-term adhesion in dental restorations.

Material And Methods: Three PAEK types, ceramic-filled polyetheretherketone (PEEK), titanium dioxide-filled polyetherketoneketone (PEKK), and PEEK with disk shape (Ø10×2.

Age-Stratified Outcomes of Transvenous Lead Extraction: A 5,090-Patient Experience from the ExTRACT Registry.

Heart Rhythm

September 2025

Cardiac Electrophysiology Section, Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio. Electronic address:

Background: Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is increasingly performed in older adults, but literature has reported divergent outcomes in very old populations.

Objective: To investigate the impact of patient age on TLE outcomes, with an emphasis on older patients.

Methods: Using the ExTRACT registry, the largest TLE registry to date, we analyzed 5,090 patients who underwent TLE between August 1996-2022 at the Cleveland Clinic, a high-volume center.

Engineered plasmonic copper (II) sulfide-wrapped polystyrene nanoparticles for spectroscopic detection of mercury ions.

J Hazard Mater

September 2025

Key Lab of Materials Physics, Anhui Key Lab of Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology, Institute of Solid State Physics, HFIPS, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Hefei 230031, China. Electronic address:

We report a novel and highly effective UV-Vis sensing platform based on plasmonic copper (II) sulfide-capsulated polystyrene nanoparticles (PS@CuS NPs) for the rapid, ultrasensitive, and selective detection of Hg . The detection mechanism is driven by a specific anion-exchange reaction between Hg and CuS, resulting in the in-situ transformation of plasmonic CuS into non-plasmonic HgS, which induces a distinct and quantifiable shift in UV-Vis absorption. This structural and optical evolution enables the platform to achieve an exceptionally low detection limit of 20 pM within just 5 min, far below most regulatory thresholds, and a wide linear detection range from 20 pM to 30 nM.
