To evaluate the impact of perioperative comprehensive nursing intervention on postoperative urinary incontinence, various aspects of patient well-being were assessed. The comprehensive group, that received the nursing intervention, demonstrated significant improvements in self-care skills, health knowledge level, self-care responsibility, and self-concept compared to the standard group. The findings indicate that perioperative comprehensive nursing intervention has a remarkable effect on patients undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how oxidative stress controls natamycin production in Streptomyces, revealing that cholesterol oxidase SgnE plays a crucial role in this process.
  • It demonstrates that the enzyme SgnE produces hydroxycholesterol (HO), which initiates a cascade of redox-dependent interactions that regulate the expression of genes involved in natamycin biosynthesis.
  • The protein OxyR acts as a redox switch, working with another regulator, SgnR, to adjust the transcription of natamycin-related genes depending on the oxidative state, ultimately providing insights for enhancing antibiotic production by managing intracellular redox levels.

Streptomyces gilvosporeus F607 produces large amounts of natamycin in a process regulated by multiple networks, including two-component systems (TCSs). The macR and macS genes, which are annotated as rs12540 and rs12545, respectively, in S. gilvosporeus F607, affect natamycin biosynthesis and sporulation.
