Long-term feeding outcomes after infant tracheostomy.

Objective: To characterize long-term feeding outcomes in infants who underwent tracheostomy prior to their first birthday.

Study Design: Retrospective review of feeding outcomes at initial hospital discharge and age 5 in a cohort of infants who underwent tracheostomy at a children's hospital over a 16-year period.

Results: 145 infants met inclusion criteria.

A comparative study of human amniotic membrane, tilapia skin collagen, and Centella asiatica derived gel to treat burn wound in rat model.

In the quest for an ideal wound healing material, human amniotic membrane (AM), tilapia skin collagen (TSC), and Centella asiatica (CA) have been studied separately for their healing potential. In this study, we formulated AM, TSC, and CA gel and studied their competency and wound healing efficacy in vivo. Gel was formulated using AM, TSC, CA, Carbopol 934, acrylic acid, glycerine, and triethanolamine and physicochemical properties e.

Ratiometric bioluminescent detection of Cu(II) ion based on differences in enzymatic reaction kinetics of two luciferase variants.

Heavy metal contamination in water bodies has raised global concerns due to its significant threats to both public health and ecosystem. Copper (Cu), one of the most widely used metals, is also an essential trace element in physiological systems. Excessive intake of Cu from water can cause toxicity, potentially resulting in serious health risks.

Cordycepin and Its Structural Derivatives Effectively Suppress the High Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Tyrosine Kinase in Breast Carcinomas: A Computational Drug Development Approach.

Background: Breast cancer is a frequently diagnosed malignant disease and the primary cause of mortality among women with cancer worldwide. The therapy options are influenced by the molecular subtype due to the intricate nature of the condition, which consists of various subtypes. By focusing on the activation of receptors, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase can be utilized as an effective drug target for therapeutic purposes of breast cancer.

Analysis of Food Safety Knowledge and Practices Among Food Handlers in Restaurants and Street Food Markets in Dhaka, Bangladesh: A Cross-Sectional Study.

This study is aimed at analyzing food safety knowledge and practices among food handlers in restaurants and street food markets in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Inadequate food handling practices remain a major worldwide health problem and are one of the main causes of food-related diseases. In Bangladesh, where the restaurant business is expanding quickly, food safety must be upheld to stop foodborne illness outbreaks.
