Recent advancements in nanoscience underscore the transformative potential of nanomaterials in environmental and biological applications. In this study, we synthesized gold nanoparticles (Au@ NPs) using an eco-friendly and cost-effective approach, leveraging peel extract as both a capping and reducing agent. This method presents a sustainable alternative to traditional chemical agents.

Article Synopsis
  • Toxoplasma gondii is a parasitic protozoan that can infect warm-blooded animals, including humans, and wild boars serve as a reservoir for this pathogen, potentially leading to toxoplasmosis in humans.
  • In a study conducted in Khuzestan Province, Iran, serological testing revealed an 83.3% prevalence of T. gondii antibodies in wild boars, while molecular testing identified the parasite's DNA in 46.7% of tissue samples, particularly in the tongue.
  • The findings emphasize the public health risk associated with the illegal hunting and consumption of wild boar meat, highlighting the need for measures to control this illegal trade and reduce the risk of transmission of toxoplasmosis.

Article Synopsis
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a prevalent issue resulting from median nerve pressure, impacting 1% to 5% of individuals, and various treatment options exist, including medications, rest, splints, and therapies like ultrasound and nerve-gliding exercises.
  • This study aimed to evaluate how effective ultrasound therapy is compared to nerve-gliding exercises in alleviating symptoms, enhancing hand functionality, and improving electrodiagnostic results for those with CTS.
  • Results showed that both treatments significantly improved symptom severity and function, but ultrasound therapy had a notable impact on reducing nerve latency and pain, indicating both methods are beneficial in the short term.
