Highlights

●Three electrodes with the structure of oncave-convex, rail coupled concave-convex, and cross rail coupled concave-convex feature were designed for radiofrequency-induced colonic anastomoses.

●The electrode with concave-convex design produced similar temperature between ‘gap’ and ‘compressed’ areas,whereas the rail coupled concave-convex exhibited the highest temperature at 'gap' and 'compressed' areas.

●The cross rail coupled concave-convex electrode, by tightly occluding upper and lower electrodes, could create uniform compression and temperature variation.

Highlights

● Candidiasis is a substantial cause of perioperative mortality in immunocompromised and immunodeficient patients. 

● β-glucan and α-mannan are two major pathogen-associated molecular patterns in the Candida albicans cell walls recognized by C-type lectin receptors (CLRs). 

● CLRs, such as Dectin-1 and Dectin-2, as β-glucan and α-mannan receptors, are essentially involved in recogni tion of Candida albicans. 

● CLRs are promising drug targets for treating chronic candidiasis.
