Purpose Cervical total disc replacement (TDR) is commonly performed to treat degenerative cervical spondylosis, but it often faces challenges such as implant wear and migration. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a novel 3D-printed TDR featuring a titanium endplate and a lattice-structured poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) design. The primary objective was to replicate the natural motion of the cervical disc while addressin...

Mosquito‐borne diseases affect millions and cause numerous deaths annually. Effective vector control, which hinges on understanding their dispersal, is vital for reducing infection rates. Given the variability in study results, likely due to environmental and human factors, gathering local dispersal data is critical for targeted disease control. To analyse the spread and differentiation of Aedes aegypti in southern Taiwan, we...
