Introduction: Black pepper () is a rich source of natural and bioactive components such as N-trans-feruloyltyramine (NFT). In this paper, we discuss the results of the subchronic toxicity and mutagenicity studies conducted to understand the potential for adverse effects if any, of Black Pepper Extract Preparation (BPE).
Methods: To evaluate mutagenicity, an Ames test was conducted with BPE in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation.
Article Synopsis
- ICU patients transitioning to different care settings are at higher risk for negative outcomes, prompting the need for effective transitions in care tools centered around patients and families.
- A mixed methods study involved 29 stakeholders assessing and discussing 18 transitions in care tools, where 39% of the tools were accepted with modifications while 6% were rejected.
- Participants noted that factors like language accessibility, comprehensiveness, individualization, and clinical impact influenced their evaluations of these care tools.
