Article Abstract
Background: Both Accura wire and soft anchored wire strategies can be employed for the preoperative computed tomography (CT)-guided localization of pulmonary nodules (PNs). The relative outcomes associated with these two distinct localization strategies, however, remain uncertain. This study thus sought to explore the relative safety and efficacy of preoperative CT-guided Accura wire and soft anchored wire localization for PNs.
Methods: This was a retrospective study enrolling patients from two centers. Consecutive patients with PNs who underwent preoperative CT-guided Accura wire or soft anchored wire localization followed by video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) resection between January 2022 and December 2023 were enrolled in these analyses. The comparison was carried out between these two groups to evaluate the safety and efficacy.
Results: Over the course of this study, 190 patients were enrolled and classified into the Accura wire ( = 100) and soft anchored wire ( = 90) groups. One PN was localized per patient, and the respective technical success rates for these two localization strategies were 98% (98/100) and 100% ( = 0.497). Dislodgement accounted for the two technical failures in the Accura wire group. Comparison of both groups revealed a comparable median localization procedural duration (9.0 vs. 9.0 min, = 0.082), while the soft anchored wire group presented with visual analog scale scores significantly lower than those for the Accura wire group (3.0 ± 0.6 vs. 4.5 ± 0.6, = 0.001). Significantly reduced pneumothorax (16.7% vs. 41%, = 0.001) and pulmonary hemorrhage (23.3% vs. 41%, = 0.01) rates were noted for the soft anchored wire relative to the Accura wire. VATS-guided limited resection was successfully performed for all patients.
Conclusions: Both Accura wire and soft anchored wire strategies can facilitate accurate PN localization prior to VATS, although the latter strategy may be associated with a better safety profile relative to the former.

Polymer additives exhibit unique advantages in suppressing lead leaching from perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, polymers tend to excessively aggregate in the perovskite film, which hinders comprehensive encapsulation and disrupts charge transport efficiency, degrading lead leakage inhibition and device performance. Herein, a polymer dynamic soft encapsulation strategy driven by molecular extrusion is introduced to mitigate lead leakage in PSCs, achieved through the incorporation of poly(propylene adipate) (PPA) as a multifunctional additive in the perovskite formulation.

Highly effective antibacterial wound dressings are essential for improving the treatment of infected wounds. This study constructs a nitrogen-doped carbon-based silver single-atom/nanoparticle composite carrier (2% Ag-NC) and anchors it in a cationic guar matrix (CG) to develop a smart dressing with synergistic antibacterial-healing-promoting function. Benefiting from the doped Ag, the triple enzyme catalytic efficiencies of oxidase, peroxidase, and glutathione peroxidase are enhanced.

The electrochemical reduction of CO to CH offers a promising pathway for renewable energy storage, yet remains limited by sluggish kinetics, poor catalyst stability, and competing hydrogen evolution reactions (HER). Herein, a host-guest strategy is reported for engineering metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) through the encapsulation of conductive polymers to stabilize reticular skeletons and regulate interfacial water for efficient CO-to-CH conversion. Specifically, polypyrrole (PPy) and polyaniline (PANI) are confined within Cu-anchored UiO-67 frameworks, resulting in hybrid catalysts-PPy@Cu-UiO-67 and PANI@Cu-UiO-67-with preserved crystallinity and enhanced electronic conductivity.

Introduction: Patellar dislocation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an uncommon but functionally significant complication. Its management requires careful evaluation of prosthetic alignment, patellofemoral mechanics, and soft tissue integrity. The aim of this study was to describe a surgical stabilization technique using a medial retinacular flap fixed to the patella with suture anchors, combined with controlled lateral retinacular release, and to analyze its clinical and functional outcomes.

Purpose: We investigated the outcomes of an original functional reconstruction procedure for ulnar drift (UD) with extensor tendon subluxation due to rheumatoid arthritis.
Methods: From 2018 to 2022, reconstruction was performed in 10 patients (31 fingers), with UD due to rheumatoid arthritis and a minimum of 2-year follow-up. The mean age was 57 years, and the mean follow-up period was 4.
