A standardized polyphenol-enriched fraction (IPHRFPPEF) was formulated into a phospholipid complex (IPHRFPPEF-PC) to enhance oral bioavailability and evaluate stability, toxicity, and in vivo anti-inflammatory activity in Sprague Dawley rats. IPHRFPPEF was prepared from crude extract using XAD-HP7/Diaion-HP20 resin column chromatography and analyzed via HPLC and NMR. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents were quantified, with IPHRFPPEF showing higher values than the crude fraction.

This is particularly the case for relatively small-scale but intensive agricultural operations such as plant production nurseries that often rely on recycled irrigation water. The increasing global demand for plants requires improved water quality and more certainty around water availability, which may be difficult to predict and deliver due to variable and changing climate regimes.

Methods: Retrospective case notes review with prospective patient-reported outcome measures for all patients who had undergone PTK for RCES at a single tertiary referral unit.
Introduction Refractive error is the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness globally. Increasingly, patients are exposed to information about refractive surgery through social media advertisements. While national guidelines specify how refractive surgery should be advertised in traditional media, it is unclear to what extent these standards are adhered to in the emerging commercial arena of social media.

- - The study examined anal cancer screening practices among high-risk populations, including people living with HIV, those with HPV-related issues, and organ transplant recipients, using clinical data from an academic medical system between 2015 and 2022.
- - Results showed that only 6.3% of the 7,654 patients had anal cytology screening, with significantly lower rates among women and Black patients, who were 73% and 46% less likely to be screened respectively.
- - The findings highlight the need for improved and equitable screening strategies, as only 21.7% of people living with HIV received screening, while other high-risk groups had even lower rates.
