Emergence of ADM-mediated bioconjugate to enhance longevity and catalytic efficiency of urease.

The versatile nature of the urease enzyme makes it a valuable asset in biological and industrial contexts. The creation of bioconjugates using enzyme-polymer combinations has extended the shelf life and stability of urease. A triblock copolymer, PAM-co-PDPA-co-PMAA@urease (ADM@urease), was synthesized using acrylamide (AM), 2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-ylacrylate (DPA), methacrylic acid (MAA), and urease via the RAFT-Grafting-To polymerization method.

Feasibility of a randomized controlled trial of enteral vs intravenous resuscitation for adults with major burn injuries in Nepal.

Introduction: Enterally-based resuscitation (EResus) is safe, efficacious, and has operational advantages, particularly in low-resource settings. However, there is a lack of real-world effectiveness studies and evidence-based protocols, which hinders implementation. To address this gap, we conducted a feasibility study ahead of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of enterally based versus usual resuscitation at a tertiary burn center in Nepal which had no prior clinical trial experience.

Microsurgical preservation of lenticulostriate artery perforators in insular glioma: the two point antegrade skeletonization technique.

Background: Reaching parenchymal segments of the lateral lenticulostriate artery (LSA) perforators, which represent the medial resection limit in insular gliomas (IG), remains a challenge. The currently described methods are indirect and sometimes, imprecise.

Methods: We report an antegrade direct skeletonization technique to identify these tiny arteries at the medial end of IGs with an illustrative case of grade 2 astrocytoma.

The Role of Environmental Exposures on Survival After Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Resection.

Background: Socioeconomic status and pollution exposure have been described as risk factors for poor survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the relationship between these factors is complex and inadequately studied. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between environmental and social factors and their impact on survival after NSCLC resection.
