Evaluating the Impact of Multimodal Prehabilitation with High Protein Oral Nutritional Supplementation (HP ONS) with Beta-Hydroxy Beta-Methylbutyrate (HMB) on Sarcopenic Surgical Patients-Interim Analysis of the HEROS Study.

Background: Multimodal prehabilitation programs, which may incorporate nutritional supplementation and exercise, have been developed to combat sarcopenia in surgical patients to enhance post-operative outcomes. However, the optimal regime remains unknown. The use of beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) has beneficial effects on muscle mass and strength.

Targeting Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 pathogenicity: The role of Glycyrrhiza glabra in inhibiting virulence factors and biofilms.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen posing serious risks to immunocompromised individuals due to its virulence factors and biofilm formation. This study evaluated the efficacy of methanol extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra (G.

A case of assisted reproductive technology-induced maternal alloimmunization: an emerging sensitizing factor to consider?

Red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization can occur because of exposure to various sensitizing factors and poses a constant threat in transfusion. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) involves manipulation of sperm, ova, or embryos with the goal of producing a pregnancy. We present an interesting case of ART-induced maternal alloimmunization (AIMA) due to anti-c in a woman carrying a twin pregnancy.
