Multiple renal arteries in living-donor kidney transplantation create technical challenges, but their effect on clinical outcomes is unclear. This review assessed whether grafts with multiple renal arteries differ in short-term outcomes compared with single renal artery grafts. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines and PROSPERO registration, a systematic [...]

Since 1894, hydrogels (HGs) have advanced from simple water-swollen colloids to poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA)-based biomedical materials introduced in 1960. Further, the journey continued towards innovative, stimuli-responsive hybrid systems in 2025. Once limited to wound dressings and contact lenses, HGs have now formed a multi-billion [...]

Pituitary adenoma (PA) is a benign tumor, accounting for the majority of pituitary tumors. While extensive epidemiological data on PA exists globally, such data is limited in Indonesia. Epidemiological insights are crucial as disease patterns, including PA, can be ethnicity-dependent, and the incidence may differ across countries. This study aimed to [...]

In this paper, a method for operating AC microgrids in both off-grid or standalone and grid-connected modes is proposed to minimize the use of energy storage by increasing the number of PV panels and curtailing their output power. When the intensity of daylight decreases, power is imported from the main grid through an AC/DC/AC converter or solid-state [...]

Small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) are rare chromosomal abnormalities with diverse outcomes and variable effects that can be detected prenatally. The clinical significance of low-level mosaic sSMCs is often uncertain, and postnatal follow-up is essential to assess phenotypic outcomes. A fetus in whom a low-level mosaic sSMC (8%) was detected [...]

The genetic hallmark of Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is the balanced reciprocal translocation t(15;17)(q24;q21), resulting in the PML::RARα fusion gene. Although the majority of APL patients carry the typical t(15;17), variant translocations involving three or more chromosomes have also been described. We report a case of a 59-year-old man showin [...]
