A worm removed intact from the anterior chamber of the left eye of a 23-year-old woman from Central Java was identified as a mle Angiostrongylus cantonensis, 11.1 mm in length and 0.24 mm in maximum width. A useful degree of eye function was preserved. Five similar cases have been reported--three from Thailand, two from South Vietnam.

Global prevalence and moderating factors of malnutrition in colorectal cancer survivors: A meta-analysis.
J Cancer Surviv
January 2025
School of Nursing, College of Nursing, Taipei Medical University, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose: This meta-analysis aims to estimate the global prevalence of severe, moderate, overall malnutrition and moderating factors of malnutrition in colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors.
Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in Embase, CINAHL, Medline-OVID, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science from inception to February 8, 2024, without language, region, or publication date restrictions. A generalized linear mixed model and random-effects model were used to examine the pooled prevalence, and moderator analyses were implemented to investigate variations in the pooled prevalence.
A descriptive analysis of nurses' self-reported mental health symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic: An international study.
Int Nurs Rev

Center for Healthcare Delivery Systems Science, Department of Population Health, Grossman School of Medicine, New York University, New York, New York, USA.
Aim: To describe the self-reported mental health of nurses from 35 countries who worked during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Background: There is little occupationally specific data about nurses' mental health worldwide. Studies have documented the impact on nurses' mental health of the COVID-19 pandemic, but few have baseline referents.

Potential of carbon micro/nanofibers derived from lignocellulose biomass valorisation for CO adsorption: A review on decarbonization biotechnology for climate change solutions.
Int J Biol Macromol
January 2025

Biomass, as a source of lignocellulose, can be valorized into carbon micro/nanofibers for adsorbing greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions, especially CO. This article is derived from systematic evidence evaluation of published studies, presenting new, innovative, and systemic approaches to lignocellulose-based carbon micro/nanofiber studies. The review covers a general overview of carbon micro/nanofiber studies, mapping chronicles of the studies, carbon micro/nanofiber types for CO uptake, carbon micro/nanofibers fabrication and characterization, obtained carbonaceous material activation and performances, regulatory frameworks, and sustainability.
