Introduction: The Trilife study describes the real-life use, in France, of the beclomethasone/formoterol/glycopyrronium triple fixed-dose combination in solution for inhalation, which is indicated as continuous treatment for moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Methods: This prospective, non-interventional, multicentric study, involving hospital and office-based pulmonologists, evaluates the proportion of patients for whom the triple fixed combination was prescribed in compliance with the indication and dosage specified in the summary of product characteristics (SPC). Patients were followed for six months.

Biofilm formation on food packaging surfaces is a major issue in the industry, as it leads to contamination, reduces shelf life, and poses risks to human health. To mitigate these effects, developing smart coatings that can actively sense and combat microbial growth has become a critical research focus. This study is motivated by the need for intelligent packaging solutions that integrate antimicrobial agents and sensors for real-time contamination detection.

Self-propelled collective motion is a highly complex phenomenon, necessitating advanced practical and theoretical tools for comprehension. The significance of studying collective motion becomes apparent in its diverse applications. For instance, addressing evacuation challenges in scenarios with multiple agents can be achieved through an examination of collective motion.

This study describes the effect of heat treatment on some physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of Eucalyptus Camaldulensis (EC) wood at different temperatures and treatment times (200 °C-260 °C for 5, 60, and 90 min). The evaluation of hygroscopic properties was determined by relative humidity, mass loss, dimensional stability tests, and density. The results showed that the heat treatment leads to an increase in mass loss of 5.
