There is a growing understanding of the structural dynamics of biological molecules fueled by x-ray crystallography experiments. Time-resolved serial femtosecond crystallography (TR-SFX) with x-ray Free Electron Lasers allows the measurement of ultrafast structural changes in proteins. Nevertheless, this technique comes with some limitations.

Revisiting secondary model features for describing the shoulder and lag parameters of microbial inactivation and growth models.

The Baranyi and Geeraerd models are two of the most reliable models for the description of, respectively, microbial growth and inactivation. They are defined as a system of differential equations, whose algebraic solution can describe the microbial response during isothermal conditions, especially when combined with suitable secondary models. However, there are still large uncertainties regarding the best functions to use as secondary models for the lag phase duration (λ) and the shoulder length (S).

Background: Informal caregivers may face challenges, especially during the pre-transplant phase. We have learned about the challenges faced by informal caregivers during hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; there is a lack of consensus about the challenges faced by them before transplantation. We identified the psychosocial well-being of informal caregivers to patients before hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Importance: Fracture-related infection (FRI) is a serious complication following fracture fixation surgery. Current treatment of FRIs entails debridement and 6 weeks of intravenous (IV) antibiotics. Lab data and retrospective clinical studies support use of oral antibiotics, which are less expensive and may have fewer complications than IV antibiotics.

Understanding the biomechanics of osteoarthritis is necessary for designing a biomedical knee implant to reduce pain, increase mobility, and enhance the patient's quality of life. The most appropriate implant design may be chosen by using Multi-Attribute Group Decision-Making (MAGDM) techniques, which include a number of variables including material characteristics, biomechanical performance, cost-effectiveness, and patient-specific requirements. Compared to conventional fuzzy set structures, Spherical Fuzzy -Number Sets ( S) provide an enhanced method for resolving uncertainty in MAGDM and are more suited for handling complicated decision-making situations.
