Article Synopsis
- The study focused on creating and testing Cobalt-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles as a photocatalyst for degrading the antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIPF) under visible LED light.
- It was found that 10% Cobalt-doped ZnO nanoparticles were the most effective, achieving over 99% degradation of CIPF in just 90 minutes, and maintained their efficiency across three cycles of use.
- The research also optimized the conditions for maximum degradation efficiency using statistical methods and simulated data using Artificial Neural Networks, achieving a strong correlation for the model’s accuracy.
Unlabelled: The study investigated the resistome, virulome and mobilome of multidrug resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae and Klebsiella oxytoca clinical isolates.
Methods: A total of 46 suspected Klebsiella species (spp.) were collected from blood cultures within the uMgungundlovu District in the KwaZulu-Natal Province.
Background: The increasing global and national prevalence of childhood obesity particularly among schoolchildren has warranted a more viable school-based obesity intervention. Apart from physical activity, nutrition is important in any obesity intervention package. This study examined the effects of the MyBFF@school program with nutrition education intervention (NEI) on nutrition knowledge and attitude of overweight and obese secondary schoolchildren.

The study aimed to evaluate atopic dermatitis (AD) disease control in adult and adolescent patients (≥12 years) treated with dupilumab in Gulf countries.
Materials And Methods: This observational study included patients with moderate-to-severe AD who initiated dupilumab within 30 days.
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are revolutionizing the field of interventional surgeries in the medical industry. Their high biocompatibility, biodegradability, and a similar elastic modulus to natural bone make porous Mg-based structures potential candidates for orthopedic implants and tissue engineering scaffolding. However, fabricating and machining porous Mg-based structures is challenging due to their complexity and difficulties in achieving uniform or gradient porosity.
