Medical emergency team (MET) activations were designed to improve patient safety and outcomes by providing timely and specialised care to patients experiencing clinical deterioration. The primary objective of this study was to describe the association between MET events in the early (24-h) postoperative period and in-hospital mortality as well as length of stay. A retrospective data linkage study was performed of prospectively collected data from patient administrative data and the MET database at Launceston General Hospital located in Tasmania, Australia.

The purification of polysaccharides is an essential preliminary step in determining their chemical structure, although it presents significant challenges. In this research, a macro-porous monolith of quaternary chitosan cryogel was synthesized for the purification of a neutral polysaccharide from Boletus auripes. A homogeneous neutral polysaccharide (BAP-1a1) with a weight-average molecular weight of 4.

Background: This study characterized the risk of new-onset asthma among workers in Manitoba, Canada.
Methods: Accepted time loss claims from the Workers' Compensation Board of Manitoba from 2006 to 2019, containing workers' occupations and industries, were linked with administrative health data from 1996 to 2020. After restricting the cohort to the first claim per person in an occupation and applying age and coverage exclusions, the cohort comprised 142,588 person-occupation combinations.

Cyanobacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS) remain released by cyanobacteria in the surrounding environment with the main purpose of protection against harmful environmental conditions. Recently, they have received significant attention due to their unique structural characteristics, functional properties, and potential applications across various fields. The current study describes the evaluation of EPS production under salinity stress from Arthrospira maxima.

The present study aimed to investigate the immunostimulatory activities of polysaccharides purified from Glycyrrhiza glabra root. First, five polysaccharide fractions were separated from G. glabra through hot water extraction, ethanol precipitation, enzymatic hydrolysis, and size exclusion chromatography.
