Efficacy and safety of laparoscopic-guided transversus abdominis plane block versus port-site local anesthetic infiltration in laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Background: Postoperative pain following laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains a major clinical concern, and the optimal method of local anesthetic delivery is unresolved. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic-guided transversus abdominis plane (LTAP) block versus por...

Microplastics in Urban Wastewater: A Vector for Chemical and Biological Pollutants with Emerging Health Risks.

The widespread usage of plastic items, plastics are often seen as a serious concern especially in metropolitan areas. This study investigates the abundance, geographical distribution and composition of micro-plastics (MPs), adsorbed contaminants (Heavy metals, microbes) on MPs in urban wastewater in Faisalabad, Pakista...

A systematic review and meta-analysis comparing the clinical outcomes of the Watchman FLX versus Watchman 2.5 device for transcatheter left atrial appendage occlusion in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Eco-Friendly Synthesis, Physicochemical Characterization, and In Vitro Biological Evaluation of Plant-Derived Bioactive-Loaded Chitosan Nanoparticles Supported by Molecular Modeling Studies

Silybum marianum (SM) is a rich source of flavonolignans with promising antioxidant and antidiabetic properties; however, its therapeutic application is limited by poor stability and bioavailability. This study combined experimental and computational approaches to develop and evaluate SM-loaded chitosan nanoparticles (...

Hypolipidemic and antioxidant potential of Trigonella foenum-graecum leaf extract via MAPK/JNK signaling pathway in high-fat diet-induced obese rats

To determine the qualitative and quantitative phytochemical components in the aqueous leaf extract of Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (AqE-TFG) and evaluate its therapeutic potential against high-fat diet-associated dyslipidemia in high-fat diet-induced obese rats. A total of 24 healthy adult male albin...
