Optimisation of the patient having oncological surgical through prehabilitation: a narrative review.

Introduction: Prehabilitation aims to improve physiological reserve and psychological resilience, enabling patients to better tolerate the physiological stress of major surgery, thereby reducing the risk of complications and improving surgical outcomes. In this review, we provide an update of the development of prehabilitation in patients having cancer surgery.

Methods: We searched databases of peer-reviewed research to identify appropriate papers.

Discovery of a potent and selective TRPC3 antagonist with neuroprotective effects.

The TRPC3 protein plays a pivotal role in calcium signaling, influencing cell function. Aberrant TRPC3 expression is implicated in various pathologies, including cardiovascular diseases, tumors, and neurodegeneration. Despite its functional similarities with TRPC6 and TRPC7, TRPC3 exhibits distinct roles in disease contexts.

Combating biofilm-associated Klebsiella pneumoniae infections using a bovine microbial enzyme.

The emergence of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae poses significant clinical challenges with limited treatment options. Biofilm is an important virulence factor of K. pneumoniae, serving as a protective barrier against antibiotics and the immune system.

Improved thermoelectric performance of PEDOT:PSS/BiTe/reduced graphene oxide ternary composite films for energy harvesting applications.

We report a significant enhancement in the thermoelectric power of PEDOT by fabricating a novel ternary composite film by incorporating BiTe and rGO. A series of five samples of PEDOT:PSS/BiTe/rGO ternary composite films were synthesized using a spin coating method and having different weight% (0.0, 0.
