That's where multimodal large language models (MLLMs) come in. They're supposed to help us make sense of these things, but they've been falling short, es
These tiny packages, called extracellular vesicles (EVs), are making waves in medicine. They come from brain cells and are being studied as a treatment option. Scientists want to make sure they can collect lots of these EVs safely and effectively. One method they're looking at is monolith chromatogr
Laryngeal chondrosarcoma, a rare and slow-growing cancer, comes in different forms. Three types—high-grade, dedifferentiated, and myxoid—are known for being more aggressive. They can spread and have worse outcomes. This review looks at how these tougher types are treated and how patients fare. It's
Doctors used a special kind of CT scan to look at the hearts of kids with a condition called double inlet right ventricle (DIRV). This condition is a bit like having one strong chamber in the heart instead of two. They wanted to see what the inside of these hearts looked like and if there were any o
Patellar instability, where the kneecap slides out of place, is a common problem orthopedic surgeons face. One big reason for this is an unusual shape of the thighbone's groove, called trochlear dysplasia (TD). Doctors have been trying different operations to fix this. Two common ones are rebuilding
