Comparative analysis of backbone atom cross-correlation matrices and folding dynamics of amyloid fibril and its complexes with novel biosurfactants isolated from Bacillus strain: a binding free energy calculation (mM-PBSA) and MD simulation approach.

In the relentless pursuit of unraveling the intricate pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyloid β (Aβ) proteins emerge as focal points due to their pivotal role in disease progression. The pathological hallmark of AD involves the aberrant aggregation of Aβ peptides into amyloid fibrils, precipitating a cascade of neurodegenerative events culminating in cognitive decline and neuronal loss. This study adopts a computational framework to investigate the potential therapeutic efficacy of novel biosurfactants (BS) in mitigating Aβ fibril formation.

A Qualitative Study of Barriers and Facilitators to the Uptake of Cardiac Rehabilitation in Octogenarians.

Despite an established evidence-base for cardiac rehabilitation (CR) improving functional outcomes and quality of life and reducing re-hospitalisation, there is limited research on CR for older cardiac patients, who require rehabilitation the most, as they are often very deconditioned due to aortic stenosis (AS). CR uptake in the UK is limited to 52% with national variability of provision and accessibility, and it is a national priority to increase uptake to 85%. Frequently, research has excluded older populations as they are deemed to be too frail or generally not suitable for inclusion.

Mobile health teleconsultation and telemedicine in operating outpatient departments during COVID-19 pandemic at a hospital in Eastern Nepal.

Background: Telemedicine provides a means to deliver healthcare across distances, enhancing efficiency and accessibility, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted its importance by reducing the risk of virus transmission while maintaining healthcare delivery. This study evaluates the telemedicine program implemented at B.

Clinical profile, histopathology, and management of caruncular lesions; a systematic review.

Background: The lacrimal caruncle, a nodular structure located at the inner canthus, contains a variety of tissue types, leading to diverse clinical manifestations of its lesions. Caruncular lesions, though rare, may be benign or malignant, complicating diagnosis and treatment. This systematic review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the clinical profiles, histopathological features, and management strategies for caruncular lesions.
