Neonates who undergo enterostomy are at risk of complications that can lead to poor growth, fluid-electrolyte imbalance, and growth abnormalities if the postoperative nutrition is not optimally managed. To address this, researchers have developed a clinical guideline for postoperative nutrition support in neonates with enterostomy (2024). This standardized evidence-based guideline for infants with enterostomy presents 22 recommendations for postoperative nutritional management in this high-risk population.

Jie Chen et al. from Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital, of Sun Yat-sen University published a paper entitled "Psychological effects of virtual reality intervention on breast cancer patients with different personalities: A randomized controlled trial" in the International Journal of Nursing Sciences. A randomized controlled trial was conducted to systematically investigate the efficiency and safety of VR intervention with natural landscape content in alleviating negative emotions, aiming to provide new ideas and empirical evidence for psychological care of breast cancer patients.

A research team from Songshan Lake Materials Laboratory introduced a new, eco-friendly method to transform carbon dioxide (CO₂, a major greenhouse gas) into useful high-performance plastics using a simple copper-based catalyst. Conducted under mild conditions at room temperature and ambient pressure, this process efficiently incorporates CO₂ into polymer materials that can be used in packaging, sensors, biomedical devices and more. The developed polymers are highly soluble, customizable, and can be quickly modified to create multifunctional materials. This innovative approach not only offers a sustainable way to recycle CO₂ but also opens new possibilities for producing advanced materials that support environmentally friendly manufacturing and help combat climate change. 

Prostate cancer remains one of the most common cancers among men, yet current screening tools often fail to distinguish between harmless and aggressive forms of the disease. 

Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs), with high gain, solution processability, tunable emission, and low cost, are promising gain media for next-generation lasers. Yet, electrical pumping—especially surface emission—faces two hurdles: insufficient carrier injection and high optical losses. Prof. Shuming Chen’s team at SUSTech introduced an “electro-thermal-optical co-design,” enabling the first electrically pumped surface-emitting ASE in CQDs, paving the way for QD-VCSELs.
