Article Abstract
Few people have a lasting impact after their death. There are artists whose images resonate for generations, writers whose words continue to speak beyond a lifetime. Scientists too achieve that distinction, not in their creative appeal but in the living legacy they leave to the people behind. Professor Sir Robert Edwards was one such scientist, an inspiration in reproductive medicine whose achievements today may surely be marked by at least 20 million children conceived by IVF since the first 47 years ago. As we celebrate the centenary of his birth, this paper sees Bob Edwards, as can be seen in history's other great men of science, as a polymath, a scientist whose work and creativity spread beyond the learning of a single discipline and into a labyrinth of connected human interests fused by a panoramic vision and rigorous intellect.

Background: Interpretive descriptive design is a well-established methodology in healthcare research, offering novel insights into complex phenomena that may elude other qualitative methods. Although interpretive descriptive is effective in translating findings into clinical practice, its application to intensive care unit interventions remains limited. The intricate nature of the intensive care unit environment and the vulnerability of this patient group, necessitates methodologies that delve deeply into interactions and translate them into practical solutions.

Herpesviruses are ubiquitous pathogens that cause a wide range of disease. Upon nuclear entry, their genomes associate with histones and chromatin modifying enzymes that regulate the progression of viral transcription and outcome of infection. While the composition and modification of viral chromatin has been extensively studied on bulk populations of infected cells by chromatin immunoprecipitation, this key regulatory process remains poorly defined at single-genome resolution.

Background And Purpose: 3D-FLAIR sequence has an important contribution to the display of endolymphatic hydrops (EH) in Meniere disease (MD), but its clinical application is limited because of the long acquisition time. We investigated whether 3D-FLAIR combined with compressed sensing (CS) technology (3D-FLAIR-CS) can shorten the scan time while maintaining the image quality and diagnostic efficiency for EH.
Materials And Methods: This prospective study included 50 patients with unilateral definite MD who underwent 3T MR imaging 4 hours after gadolinium injection using traditional 3D-FLAIR (10 minutes 35 seconds) and 3D-FLAIR-CS (5 minutes 25 seconds).
