ISOLATION AND PURIFICATION OF TRANSGLUTAMINASE 1 USING BIOCHEMICAL TECHNIQUES.

Transglutaminase 1 catalyzes the creation of covalent bonds between proteins, play an essential role in various biological processes and industrial applications. The study aims to isolate and purify transglutaminase 1 from the blood serum of healthy individuals using numerous biochemical techniques. TGMs 1 are isolated and purified from the blood serum of healthy volunteers samples who were not smokers and had not taken any medications at the time of the sample collection.

Ethnicity in neuro-oncology research: How are we doing and how can we do better?

Purpose: This study systematically reviews and meta-analyses the extent of ethnic minority representation in neuro-oncology Phase III and IV clinical trials, explores the effect of ethnicity on outcomes, and identifies predictors for the inclusion of ethnicity data in publications.

Methods: Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a comprehensive literature search across multiple databases, on Phase III and IV trials in neuro-oncology that reported on adult and/or paediatric subjects. Through meta-analysis, we synthesized information on overall survival, event-free survival, and the incidence of adverse outcomes across ethnicities.

Examining Introduction of E-consent in the Neurosurgical Caseload: Understanding the Barriers to Implementation.

Objective: To evaluate current usage and barriers of electronic consent (e-consent) implementation in neurosurgical practice. E-consent forms provide an alternative method for conducting the informed consent (IC) procedure. IC requires an ability to understand, retain, weigh up, and communicate decisions regarding the proposed procedure.

Incidence of Surgical Site Infection Following Cesarean Section and Its Associated Factors in a Hospital of the Eastern Region, Saudi Arabia: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) following cesarean sections (CS) pose significant challenges in healthcare settings, prompting this five-year investigation in a Qatif Area general hospital. The study aimed to delineate nuances in SSI occurrences, assess yearly variations, and identify associated risk factors impacting SSI rates among CS patients.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 1584 cesarean sections conducted over five years was undertaken, and the reported SSI cases were examined to calculate the overall and yearly SSI rates.

Effect of adding diaphragmatic breathing to corrective exercises on kyphotic angle and diaphragmatic excursion in postmenopausal kyphotic women: A randomized controlled trial.

Background: Age-related thoracic kyphosis can impair posture, diaphragmatic excursion, respiratory function, and overall quality of life (QoL).

Purpose: This randomized controlled trial aimed to compare the effects of corrective exercises alone versus combined with diaphragmatic breathing exercises on thoracic kyphosis, diaphragmatic excursion, thoracic pain, and QoL in postmenopausal kyphotic women.

Methods: Forty postmenopausal women diagnosed with thoracic kyphosis were randomly divided into two groups.
