Introduction: Acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) often involve mucus hypersecretion. Thus, management of sputum retention is critical. However, the use of airway clearance techniques (ACTs) in people with AECOPD across different healthcare settings and factors influencing their selection remain unclear.

Modification of spore shells into probiotic carriers: selective loading and colonic delivery of and effective therapy of inflammatory bowel disease.

Food Funct

Key Laboratory for Space Bioscience and Biotechnology, School of Life Sciences, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi'an, 710072, Shaanxi, People's Republic of China.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammation with a high incidence rate. Many probiotics, including (), have shown promise in IBD treatment. The therapeutic effects of most probiotics are greatly decided by the available live cells in the disease lesion, which is compromised as they pass through the gastric juice and intestinal tract, resulting in a loss of activity.

The oral administration of drugs for cancer therapy can maintain optimal blood concentrations, is biologically safe and simple, and is preferred by many patients. However, the complex lumen environment, mucus layer, and intestinal epithelial cells are biological barriers that hinder the absorption of orally administered drugs. In this study, sea urchin-like manganese-doped copper selenide nanoparticles (Mn-CuSe NPs) were designed using an anion exchange method and coated with calcium alginate and chitosan (AC) to form Mn-CuSe@AC capsules.

Programmable Food-Derived Peptide Coassembly Strategies for Boosting Targeted Colitis Therapy by Enhancing Oral Bioavailability and Restoring Gut Microenvironment Homeostasis.

ACS Nano

January 2025

Jilin Provincial Key Laboratory of Nutrition and Functional Food, College of Food Science and Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130062, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Recent advancements in orally-targeted nanostrategies using multiple nutraceuticals show promise for ulcerative colitis therapy, improving patient compliance and effectiveness despite challenges like poor solubility and gastrointestinal retention.
  • The study introduces nanoparticles crafted from quaternary ammonium chitosan and succinic acid-modified γ-cyclodextrin, with egg white-derived peptides enhancing the delivery and bioavailability of hydrophobic curcumin.
  • Findings indicate that these nanoparticles significantly increase cellular absorption and oral bioavailability, support colonic microenvironment interactions, and promote intestinal health through improved amino acid metabolism.

Family Caregiver Knowledge in the Outpatient Management of Pediatric Tracheostomy-Related Emergencies.

Clin Pediatr (Phila)

December 2024

Division of Pediatric Pulmonology, Department of Pediatrics, Emory University, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Atlanta, GA, USA.

Tracheostomy-related emergencies (TREs) contribute significantly to preventable mortality. The retention of caregiver knowledge and skills acquired through simulation-based training (SBT) is unknown. This study aimed to assess the management of TREs by caregivers who did and did not receive SBT.
