The increasing global burden of cancer: implications for anaesthesia and peri-operative medicine.
Anaesthesia
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, USA.
Introduction: Most patients with cancer will require surgery at some point in their lifetime. As the global burden of cancer continues to increase, changes and challenges in cancer epidemiology and care are also borne peri-operatively.
Methods: Due to its broad scope, a formal systematic electronic literature search was not performed.
Biocompatible dually reinforced gellan gum hydrogels with selective antibacterial activity.
Carbohydr Polym

School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Qingdao University, Qingdao 266071, PR China. Electronic address:
The poor mechanics and functionality of natural-polymer hydrogels from gellan gum (GG) prohibit their practical application, despite the intrinsic thermo-reversible gelation nature, structural and quality consistency, biocompatibility, biodegradability and sustainability of microbial fermentation-produced GG. Herein, a dual-reinforcing strategy, i.e.

Dynamic treatment regimes (DTRs) formalize medical decision-making as a sequence of rules for different stages, mapping patient-level information to recommended treatments. In practice, estimating an optimal DTR using observational data from electronic medical record (EMR) databases can be complicated by nonignorable missing covariates resulting from informative monitoring of patients. Since complete case analysis can provide consistent estimation of outcome model parameters under the assumption of outcome-independent missingness, Q-learning is a natural approach to accommodating nonignorable missing covariates.

Department of Psychology, Government MLB Girls PG College, Kila Bhawan, Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India.
Post-stroke cognitive impairment is a common consequence of stroke, characterized by deficits in language, cognitive functioning, functional abilities. Innovative technological approaches, such as computerized cognitive retraining, offer promising strategies for mitigating the cognitive challenges. Despite their potential, the impact of these interventions on neuropsychological function and daily living capabilities has poor outcomes.

Dentistry (periodontology), Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Kapucijnenvoer 7, Leuven, Flanders, 3000, BELGIUM.
Halitosis specialists can be found all over the world, but very little is known about how they approach patients with halitosis complaints. Therefore, this web-based questionnaire study tried to reach as many of them to gain insight in their methods and tools used to diagnose the condition. Since this study was carried out in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, its impact was also examined.
