The introduction of surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology on microfluidics has shown its powerfully controlling and actuating fluid and particle capability in a micro-nano scale, such as fluid mixing, fluid translation, microfluidic pumping, microfluidic rotational motor, microfluidic atomization, particle or cell concentration, droplet or cell sorting, reorientation of nano-objects, focusing and separation of particles, and droplet jetting. The SAW-driven droplet jetting technology enjoys the advantages of simple structure to fabricate with little hindrance, compact size to integrate with other components, high biocompatibility with biological cells or other molecule samples, large force in realizing fast fluidic actuation, and contact-free manipulation with fluid. The realization of this technology can effectively overcome some bottleneck problems in the current micro-injection technology, such as mechanical swear, complicated and bulky structure, and strict limitation of requirements on fluidic characteristics. This article reviews and reorganizes SAW-microfluidic jetting technology from decades of years, referring to the interaction mechanism theory of SAW and fluid, experimental methods of SAW-microfluidic jetting, effects of related parameters on objected pinch-off droplets, and applications of individual structures. Finally, we made a summary of the research results of the current literature and look forward and appraise where this discipline of SAW-microfluidic jetting could go in the future.Novel coronavirus, COVID-19, erupted in Wuhan, China, in 2019 and has now spread to almost all countries in the world. Until the end of November 2020, there were over 50 × 106 people diagnosed with COVID-19 worldwide and it caused at least 1 × 106 deaths. These numbers are still increasing. To control the spread of the pandemic and to choose a suitable treatment plan, a fast, accurate, effective, and ready-to-use diagnostic method has become an important prerequisite. In this Review, we introduce the principles of multiple off-site and on-site detection methods for virus diagnosis, including qPCR-based, ELISA-based, CRISPR-based methods, etc. All of these methods have been successfully implanted on the microfluidic platform for rapid screening. We also summarize currently available diagnostic methods for the detection of SARS, MERS, and COVID-19. Some of them not only can be used to analyze the SARS and MERS but also have the potential for COVID-19 detection after modifications. Finally, we hope that understanding of current microfluidic-based detection approaches can help physicians and researchers to develop advanced, rapid, and appropriate clinical detection techniques that reduce the financial expenditure of the society, accelerate the examination process, increase the accuracy of diagnosis, and eventually suppress the worldwide pandemic.Meroanencephaly occurs when there is an incomplete open median calvarial defect. This condition, which is in the spectrum of anencephaly, results in ectopic brain without skin covering and a normal foramen magnum. We present a rare case of a female fetus with meroanencephaly referred to our institution at 24 weeks and imaged with both prenatal ultrasound and MRI, demonstrating an open neural tube defect in the high parietal area and lack of visualization of the supratentorial ventricular system. Postnatal the child survived and went on to require antibiotic therapy and closure of the defect without cerebral spinal fluid diversion but demonstrates severe permanent neurologic deficits.We describe a rare case of intramammary lymphadenopathy due to Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease. A 15-year old female presented to the Breast Clinic with complaints of a tender, palpable right breast lump. An ultrasound of the area of concern demonstrated an enlarged 2.9 cm intramammary lymph node with preservation of the fatty hilum. An ultrasound guided core biopsy of the lymph node confirmed the diagnosis of Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease.Traumatic, isolated oculomotor nerve palsy is a rare clinical finding and only few reports demonstrate associated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings. Here, we present the case of a 70-year-old woman with left-sided oculomotor nerve palsy following a mild head trauma due to an e-bike accident. Post-traumatic cerebral computed tomography revealed punctiform hemorrhage in the left interpeduncular cistern and the following MRI confirmed an intraneural hemorrhage of the left oculomotor nerve. Nine weeks later, the follow-up MRI showed progressive atrophy and contrast-enhancement of the left oculomotor nerve. To support functional recovery, a treatment with intravenous corticosteroids was started. Six months later, the patient presented with improved oculomotor nerve function and partial recovery of ptosis and diplopia. In accordance, MRI demonstrated recurrent contrast-enhancement of the atrophic nerve. selleck kinase inhibitor In conclusion, high-resolution MRI allows the reliable delineation of the oculomotor nerve and can support diagnosis in trauma patients with isolated oculomotor nerve palsy.The increasing prevalence of complex, chronic conditions has profound implications on the growing demand and cost of health care. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation is testing data-driven approaches to care delivery and payment that are drawn from innovative practices of health care providers and other partners in the health care community. The shift from fee-for-service to value-based care and performance-based payment places increased priority on improved outcomes at lower costs. To advance comprehensive medication management, pharmacists need to understand the opportunities in the evolving value-based payment models and align medication optimization with the specific goals and incentives of these models.Ensuring fit between a service and the implementing context is a critical but often overlooked precursor of implementation success. This commentary proposes five key considerations that should be evaluated when exploring fit alignment with needs and metrics; alignment with organizational resources and capabilities; alignment with organizational priorities and culture; alignment with reimbursement mechanisms for long-term sustainability; and alignment with the regulatory environment. Successful uptake and implementation hinges on careful planning and, most importantly, appropriate fit between the service and the implementing environment.
