Introduction: Goal-oriented practices involve practitioners working collaboratively with clients to identify, develop and focus on objectives for the therapeutic work. It has been suggested that the key mechanism underpinning goal-oriented practices with young people is the development of epistemic trust via the foundation of open communication, along with shared decision-making: including young people in decisions about their care. However, goal-oriented work in practice is variable in scope and content, with no research consensus on what it entails, the mechanisms of change and reported outcomes.

Various studies have demonstrated that directed evolution is a powerful tool in enhancing protein properties. In this study, directed evolution was used to enhance the efficacy of synthesised AtMP1 antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells. The modification of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and prediction of peptide properties using bioinformatic tools were carried out using four databases, including ADP3, CAMP-R3, AMPfun, and ANTICP.

The intestinal mucosal barrier forms a critical interface between lumen contents such as bacteria, drugs, and drug carriers and the underlying tissue. Current intestinal models, while recapitulating certain aspects of this barrier, generally present challenges with respect to imaging transport across mucus and uptake into enterocytes. A human mesofluidic small intestinal chip was designed to enable facile visualization of a mucosal interface created by growing primary human intestinal cells on a vertical hydrogel wall separating channels representing the intestinal lumen and circulatory flow.

Background: Same-day discharge (SDD) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has proven safe, and global adoption of this strategy has been increasing rapidly. These data are predominantly derived from high-volume, metropolitan centres with a relative paucity of data from regional and remote settings.

Aims: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of a same-day, criteria-led discharge strategy following elective transradial PCI in a regional setting.
