Article Synopsis
- * The review aimed to evaluate discharge opioid prescribing practices for neurosurgical patients and assess whether neurosurgeons are over-prescribing opioids, as existing literature on this topic is limited.
- * A systematic review identified 23 relevant studies, revealing a mix of over-prescribing and under-prescribing of opioids, highlighting a need for individualized patient care and better quality research to help establish effective prescribing guidelines.
Article Synopsis
- Root systems in crops, like rapeseed and tomato, release Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) that impact atmospheric emissions and soil microbial activity.
- Using a specialized chamber, researchers measured VOC emissions from both the aboveground and belowground parts of the plants, finding that root emissions increased significantly—especially methanol—when soil was removed.
- The study highlights that roots are a largely overlooked source of VOCs, suggesting that soil serves as a significant sink for root-emitted methanol, and stresses the need to consider these emissions during agricultural practices involving root extraction.
Polar BODIPY-tetrazine dyes were developed and clicked in vivo to a preaccumulated -cyclooctene-modified anti-TAG72 monoclonal antibody CC49 (CC49-TCO). The in vivo click performance was evaluated using an in-house developed ex vivo blocking assay. All tested polar BODIPY structures exhibited excellent in vivo binding, confirming that the turn-on tetrazine dyes successfully clicked in vivo to pretargeted CC49-TCO.

- Temporal lobe encephaloceles (TLEN) might cause temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), and doctors are figuring out the best surgery to treat it.
- A study looked at nine patients with TLE caused by TLEN who had a special test called SEEG to find where their seizures started in the brain.
- Results showed that many patients had successful surgery, with some becoming seizure-free, but seizure activity can happen in areas beyond just the TLEN.
Article Synopsis
- Cardiac repair is super important after a heart attack to help the heart heal and work better, and scientists are studying a specific receptor called C5aR1.
- Researchers found that when the C5aR1 receptor is not present, it helps reduce the damage to the heart and improve its function after a heart attack.
- The study suggests that by blocking the C5aR1 receptor, we might be able to make the heart heal better after a heart attack, which can help save lives.
