In this paper, we investigated the hydrophobicity, ability to adhere to solvents and the pig epithelium and co-aggregation of members of family Enterobacteriaceae and KGPMF 49. The bacteria used in this study were isolated from traditionally made autochthonous cheese from Southeastern Serbia (Sokobanja). The percentage of adhered bacteria was different in three solvents (chloroform, ethyl acetate and xylene). The highest percentage was detected in the presence of chloroform, and the lowest percentage was detected in the presence of xylene (chloroform < ethyl acetate < xylene). A different degree of co-aggregation of enterobacteria with KGPMF 49 was observed. KGPMF 8 demonstrated the highest percentage of co-aggregation with KGPMF49 (32.29%). KGPMF 13, KGPMF 9 and biogp 1 KGPMF 19 were found to have the ability to adhere to the pig epithelium, whereas KGPMF 22 showed no such ability. The ability to co-aggregate with other species and the ability to adhere to the pig epithelium are very important characteristics of the isolated bacteria.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to Optimize Post-Operative Recovery (COPE): a randomized controlled feasibility trial in extremity fracture patients.
Pilot Feasibility Stud
January 2025
Department of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the feasibility of an online cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) program for patients recovering from extremity fractures compared to usual care.
- Despite enrolling 94 participants, recruitment showed a "yellow light," indicating some success but needing improvements.
- Compliance with the CBT program was low, as only 60% completed all modules, leading to a "red light," suggesting significant changes are necessary before a larger trial can proceed.
Superabsorbent wound dressings for the management of highly exuding wounds: a literature review.

Exudate management is essential for creating a moist wound environment that promotes optimal healing, especially in highly exuding wounds, where choosing an appropriate wound dressing to handle high volumes of exudate is a key part of the wound management strategy. Superabsorbent wound dressings (SWDs) have been designed to absorb and retain large amounts of exudate. Thus, they are advocated for management of wounds with moderate-to-high levels of exudate to reduce the risk of leakage and damage to the periwound skin.

Creatine monohydrate supplementation is widely used by athletes in high-intensity, power-based sports due to its ability to enhance short-term performance by increasing intramuscular phosphocreatine (PCr) stores, which aid in ATP resynthesis during intense muscle contractions. However, emerging evidence suggests that creatine monohydrate offers benefits beyond athletic performance. This narrative review explores the literature supporting the advantages of creatine supplementation in women, vegans, and clinical populations.

Surface wettability, defined by the contact angle, describes the ability of a liquid to spread over, absorb or adhere to a solid surface. Surface wetting analysis is important in many applications, such as lubrication, heat transfer, painting and wherever liquids interact with solid surfaces. The behavior of liquids on surfaces depends mainly on the texture and chemical properties of the surface.

Background: Addressing the growing challenge of nurse retention requires coordinated actions at national and global levels to improve recruitment, retention policies, and investments in the nursing work environment. The nursing work environment, defined as the "organizational characteristics of a work setting that facilitate or constrain professional nursing practice", is critical in influencing whether nurses decide to leave their jobs. This study investigates the impact of differentiated nursing practices - which involved tailoring roles and responsibilities based on nurses' training, skills, and experience in Dutch hospitals - and investigated their impact on the nursing work environment and turnover intention (i.
