Fabrication and In Vivo Testing of a Sub-mm Duckbill Valve for Hydrocephalus Treatment

Fabrication and In Vivo Testing of a Sub-mm Duckbill Valve for Hydrocephalus Treatment Academic Background Hydrocephalus is a complex pathological condition characterized by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the cranium due to an imbalance between CSF production and absorption. This accumulation leads to increased intracranial pressu...

Single-cell atlas reveals the immunosuppressive microenvironment and Treg cells landscapes in recurrent glioblastoma

Single-Cell Atlas Reveals Immunosuppressive Microenvironment and Treg Cell Distribution in Recurrent Glioblastoma Glioblastoma is the most aggressive brain tumor, with a very high recurrence rate and poor prognosis. Although many studies have explored the tumor microenvironment of this disease, the understanding of the immune microenvironment in re...

Routine CSF parameters as predictors of disease course in multiple sclerosis: an MSBase cohort study
