Total resection of glioblastoma (GB) tumors is nearly impossible, and systemic administration of temozolomide (TMZ) is often inadequate. This study presents a hybrid layered composite nanofiber mesh (LHN) designed for localized treatment in GB tumor bed. The LHN, consisting of polyvinyl alcohol and core-shell polylactic acid layers, was loaded with TMZ and rutin.

Article Synopsis
  • Single incision laparoscopic liver resection (SILLR) is a new technique for liver surgery that has been slower to adopt for treating liver tumors compared to traditional multiport methods.
  • A review of existing literature was conducted on SILLR's application specifically for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), involving data from 195 patients who underwent this procedure.
  • The paper examines the feasibility of SILLR, its perioperative and postoperative outcomes, guidelines for selecting appropriate patients, and whether it adheres to important cancer treatment principles.

Article Synopsis
  • Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is a significant global health issue, and rising drug resistance highlights the urgent need for new treatments.
  • Computer-aided drug design (CADD) is being utilized to create more effective and less toxic drugs for tuberculosis.
  • The study focused on two synthetic peptides, AKVUAM-1 and AKVUAM-2, which were designed to block interactions crucial for M. tuberculosis infection, showing promise without harming normal lung tissue and having varied minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) against different bacterial strains.
