The neglected barrier to medication use: a systematic review of difficulties associated with opening medication packaging.

Difficulty opening medication packaging can have serious consequences that can lead to patient harm via medication mismanagement or poor adherence. However, the quality of literature pertaining to these issues has yet to be collated and critiqued. This systematic review examined cross-sectional studies that objectively examined the ability of participants to open different medication packaging.

The excellent biocompatibility and negligible immune response of the titanium heterometallic MOF MUV-10.

The Ti-Ca heterometallic MOF MUV-10 exhibits good dispersibility in phosphate buffer and low phosphate-induced degradation in comparison to other MOF systems. It induces no cytotoxicity towards cells of the immune system and no inmune response, making it an attractive candidate for biomedical applications and demonstrating its safe use for other applications.

[Thrombolysis with Tenecteplase in a stroke with a long time window after onset of symptoms. Report of one case].

We report a 78-year-old man with a basal Rankin score of 2 points, last seen 10 hours before in good conditions, who arrived at the emergency department with left hemiparesis, hypoesthesia, and spacial neglect. Neuroimaging was compatible with stroke in the territory of the right middle cerebral artery. Due to the evolution time of the stroke, usual thrombolysis was contraindicated.

Strategies discussed at the XIIth international conference on Kangaroo mother care for implementation on a countrywide scale.

Aim: Building strategies for the country-level dissemination of Kangaroo mother care (KMC) to reduce the mortality rate in preterm and low birth weight babies and improve quality of life. KMC is an evidence-based healthcare method for these infants. However, KMC implementation at the global level remains low.

Melanoma cancer stem-like cells: Optimization method for culture, enrichment and maintenance.

Malignant Melanoma is known for being one of the most aggressive cancers with an incidence that increases every year. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are involved in the resistance to therapeutic treatments, the metastatic process, and the patient's relapses. Thus, it is of vital importance for researchers to find the methodology that allows us to obtain enriched subpopulations that maintain their stem-like properties without differentiating over time.
