This study focused on developing biodegradable packaging films based on starch as an alternative to non-biodegradable such as petroleum-derived synthetic polymers. To improve its physicochemical properties, potato starch was chemically modified through phosphorylation. Starch phosphorylation was carried out using cyclic 1,3-propanediol phosphoryl chloride (CPPC), produced phosphorylated starch (PS), and analyzed using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).

The success of introduced species often relies on flexible traits, including immune system traits. While theories predict non-natives will have weak defences due to decreased parasite pressure, effective parasite surveillance remains crucial, as infection risk is rarely zero and the evolutionary novelty of infection is elevated in non-native areas. This study examines the relationship between parasite surveillance and cytokine responsiveness in native and non-native house sparrows, hypothesizing that non-natives maintain high pathogen surveillance while avoiding costly inflammation.

It remains underreported how these changes could impact concordance at final pathology. We aimed to evaluate the impact of transitioning from standard transrectal (sTR) to cognitive targeted transperineal (cog-tTP) biopsy on final pathology including concordance and upgrading.

The study focused on the coverage of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in two selected newspapers. It aims to understand the extent and nature of the coverage of IDPs in these newspapers, taking into consideration the various reasons for displacement, such as conflicts and disasters, religious or political persecution, and economic necessity. Through an analysis of the selected newspapers, the study aims to shed light on the portrayal of IDPs, providing a comprehensive understanding of the issue and potential areas for improvement in media coverage.

AbstractMorning Report is a time-honored tradition where physicians-in-training present cases to their colleagues and clinical experts to collaboratively examine an interesting patient presentation. The Morning Report section seeks to carry on this tradition by presenting a patient's chief concern and story, inviting the reader to develop a differential diagnosis and discover the diagnosis alongside the authors of the case. This report examines the story of a 26-year-old woman who developed acute hepatocellular liver injury following a cesarean delivery for fetal distress.
