Glucose transporters are essential carrier proteins that function on the phospholipid bilayer to facilitate glucose diffusion across cell membranes. The transporters play many physiological and pathological roles in addition to absorption and metabolism of fructose in food and the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal diseases. These carrier proteins play an important role in diseases of the nervous system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, and urinary system.

Objective: To report a single tertiary center experience in the management of prenatally diagnosed cases of fetal ascites and their postnatal outcomes.
Methods: Prenatally diagnosed fetal ascites cases were retrospectively analyzed from 2015 to 2022 using two-dimensional ultrasound with other investigations as required in a tertiary care center.
Results: Of 126 fetuses with fetal ascites, 70 progressed to hydrops and hence were excluded from the study.

The Young Doctors Program (YDP) is a "mini medical school" series for fifth-grade elementary children. The YDP was designed and led by medical students in the Academic Medicine and Leadership Track at the Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Colorado. The curriculum of the program was designed around the State of Colorado Learning Standards with the purpose of educating students about emergencies and common ailments in five body systems (cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, and renal) while also providing exposure to healthcare as a profession.

Introduction: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are associated with severe gastrointestinal irritation upon prolonged use, largely due to their carboxylic (-- COOH) functional group.
Aim: To address this issue, we aimed to synthesize diclofenac conjugates with glucosamine and chitosan, converting the -COOH group into an amide (-CONH-) via a mechanochemical, environmentally friendly method.
Method: In this study, diclofenac acid was first converted to its acid chloride using thionyl chloride under mechanochemical conditions and subsequently reacted with glucosamine base and chitosan.
