Green synthesis of gold nanoparticles via seed extract: antioxidant, antibacterial and anticarcinogenic activity on lung cancer.

Plant-mediated biosynthesis of nanoparticles is a green method that allows synthesis in one-pot process. Synthesis of gold nanoparticles with plant extracts has gained interest in the field of biomedicine due to its variety of applications. This study presents the synthesis green chemistry of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using the methanol extract of seeds.

Risk of blood transfusion following total hip arthroplasty: A national database study from 367,894 patients.

Purpose: A growing elderly population in the United States coupled with improvement in surgical techniques have resulted in more elderly individuals undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). As such, risk factors associated with increased risk of blood transfusion following THA, which has been linked to various detrimental outcomes, must be better understood. This study aims to identify co-morbidities associated with blood transfusion following THA.

Antiproliferative activity of standardized herbal phytopreparation from .

Several studies have shown that active compounds of (cardenolides) have antiproliferative effect on human cancer cells. Cardenolides isolated from can be used as active chemical markers to elaborate phytopharmaceutical preparations. The aim of this work was to evaluate the antiproliferative effect of a standardized extract of the aerial parts, based on cardenolides.

Teleneuropsychology during the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico: the perspective from a middle-income country.

Introduction: The use of teleneuropsychology (TeleNP) increased as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; however, there have been no studies of the benefits and difficulties with this modality in middle-income countries. This study aimed to assess the current use of TeleNP in Mexico.

Method: Mexican neuropsychologists were invited to participate in an online survey regarding the use of TeleNP during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A Systematic Review and a Latin American Clinical Model for Teleneuropsychological Assessment.

Objective: The objective of this study is to propose a TeleNP model for remote assessment and offer practical recommendations for clinical practice with patients in Mexico and Latin America, based on a systematic literature review and clinical experience.

Method: A systematic review of studies from 2011 to 2021 in English and Spanish used TeleNP, teleneuropsychology, telepsychology, online, assessment, teleneuropsicología, and evaluación for the search; the databases examined included PubMed, BiDi UNAM, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Wiley One Library; the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine system was used to grade the levels of evidence. The experience of the last two years of students and faculty in the Master's and Doctoral Programs in Psychology, Clinical Neuropsychology Residency Program, was also used as a basis for this guide.
