Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lipid nanostructured particles with increasing negative Gaussian curvature progress from vesicles to P‐cubosomes and D‐cubosomes. This curvature hierarchy enhances interaction with bacterial membranes, promotes membrane remodeling and leakage, and potentiates daptomycin activity against MRSA.

Advances in Digestive Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Pharyngeal high‐resolution manometry with impedance (P‐HRM‐I) is an established assessment method used to evaluate pharyngeal swallowing. It provides precise quantification of swallowing biomechanics that enable the detection of alterations in swallowing physiology.

The Legislation for Providing Animal Access in Australian Residential Aged Care: It's Not a Zoo
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Providing meaningful animal contact to residential aged care facility (RACF) residents is problematic due to a lack of animal policies and National Guidelines. This paper examines how Australian Legislation could influence access to animal contact in RACFs and aims to answer the question, ‘Could current Legislation facilitate the development ...

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aged care work is physically and emotionally demanding. Workers can feel disempowered, vulnerable and at increased risk of experiencing work‐related stress. This in turn can result in sub‐optimal care and staff shortages. This study aimed to investigate what provisions exist within Australia's strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards to ...

Extent of Sinus Surgery Is Associated With Disease Control in Biologic Treated Type 2 Dominant CRS
International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background A greater benefit of biologics is observed after surgery in Type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the extent of surgery remains undefined in many studies. This study evaluated the extent of surgery on disease control in patients receiving biologics for refractory Type 2 dominant CRSwNP.

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common manifestations of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), often preceding the diagnosis of systemic vasculitis by several years. The sinonasal presentation of EGPA typically resembles CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), making it clinically indistinguishable from those

Nanodiamonds as Bioactive Platforms to Modulate Microbial, Mammalian, and Vertebrate Systems
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Nanodiamonds (NDs) are biocompatible and antibacterial nanomaterials that support mammalian cell growth while inhibiting bacterial pathogens. NDs showed strong antibacterial activity, with Escherichia coli being more sensitive than Staphylococcus aureus. At 10 mg/mL, both bacteria exhibited ~8% viability.
