Abstract
Cardiotoxicity (CT) is a severe condition that negatively impacts heart function. β-sitosterol (BS) is a group of phytosterols and known for various pharmacological benefits, such as managing diabetes, cardiac protection, and neuroprotection. This study aims to develop niosomes (NS) containing BS, utilizing cholesterol as the lipid and Tween 80 as the stabilizer. The research focuses on designing and evaluating both conventional BS-NS and hyaluronic acid (HA) modified NS (BS-HA-NS) to enhance the specificity and efficacy of BS within cardiac tissue. The resulting niosomal formulation was spherical, with a size of about 158.51 ± 0.57 nm, an entrapment efficiency of 93.56 ± 1.48 %, and a drug loading of 8.07 ± 1.62 %. To evaluate cytotoxicity on H9c2 heart cells, the MTT assay was used. The cellular uptake of BS-NS and BS-HA-NS was confirmed by confocal microscopy on H9c2 cardiac cells. Administering BS-NS and BS-HA-NS intravenously at a dose of 10 mg/kg showed the ability to significantly decrease the levels of cardiac troponin-I (cTn-I), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and lipid peroxidation (MDA). Tissue histopathology indicated a substantial potential for repairing cardiac tissue after treatment with BS-NS and BS-HA-NS and strong cardioprotection against ISO induced myocardial tissue damages. Thus, enhancing BS's therapeutic effectiveness through niosome surface modification holds promise for mitigating cardiac damage resulting from CT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES ABO-incompatible transplantations allow patients to receive timely transplants. Isoagglutinin titration to ascertain levels of incompatible antibodies in the recipient is important in determining patient selection and transplant survivability. To find out the prevalent trends in India, the largest, first of its kind survey was carried out among the transplant centers regarding their practices in isoagglutinin titration. METHODS The survey was drafted by a working group of Transfusion and Transplant Immunology specialists from six different centers. Data was obtained via the use of an online questionnaire. RESULTS Results were categorized into four categories, Hospital information, Titration methodology, Role of transfusion specialists and cut-off titers. Most centers had a well-established solid-organ transplant program with considerable number of ABO-incompatible transplantations. Most centers performed isoagglutinin titration in Transfusion Medicine department. Column Agglutination Technique (CAT) was the most common method, using EDTA blood samples and freshly-prepared in-house pooled cells. Most centers had a turn-around time of less than 12 h. While the policy for ascertaining baseline and threshold titers is well-defined in ABO-incompatible renal transplants, variations from center to center still exist for ABO-incompatible liver transplants. Most centers required a Transfusion Medicine consultation for the patients before such transplants. CONCLUSION With increasing ABO-incompatible kidney and liver transplants across the country, the role of Transfusion medicine specialists has become vital in pre-conditioning regimes enabling the viability and success of such transplants. This was a unique survey that provided a snapshot of current trends and practices of isoagglutinin titration for ABO-incompatible transplants in India.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION COVID convalescent plasma (CCP) has been used as standard of care in patients all over the world. CCP is plasma collected from recently infected and currently recovered COVID-19 patients, which contains antiviral antibodies that can be used to treat patients with COVID-19. Several studies have shown a shorter hospital stay and lower mortality in patients treated with convalescent plasma in comparison with those not treated with it. OBJECTIVES This study aims to determine the effect of COVID convalescent plasma (CCP) on the length of hospital stay in symptomatic patients and to determine outcome of the disease in patients who were administered CCP. METHODS This was a retrospective observational study done at a tertiary health care centre from July 2020 to May 2021, including patients who received CCP during the course of their stay in the hospital. RESULTS Among 257 participants, the patients with multiple comorbidities who were administered CCP had the longest average length of stay in the hospital which was 15 days, out of which, 92 (35.8%) patients were discharged while 9 (3.5%) patients died. Also, the maximum number of deaths was observed in those patients who had no associated comorbidity, being 11 (4.3%). It was observed that earlier administration of CCP in patients (< 5 days from symptom onset) was associated with a higher number of discharges as compared to deaths. CONCLUSION Our study indicates that CCP may be efficient in treating COVID-19 patients if given in early course of the disease.

Abstract
Background Antitumor research aims to efficiently target hepatocarcinoma cells (HCC) for drug delivery. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) are promising for active tumour targeting. Cell-penetrating peptides are feasible ligands for targeted cancer treatment. Methods In this study, we optimized gefitinib-loaded NLCs (GF-NLC) for HCC treatment. The NLCs contained cholesterol, oleic acid, Pluronic F-68, and Phospholipon 90G. The NLC surface was functionalized to enhance targeting with the cRGDfK-pentapeptide, which binds to the αvβ3 integrin receptor overexpressed on hepatocarcinoma cells. Results GF-NLC formulation was thoroughly characterized for various parameters using differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction analysis. In-vitro and in-vivo studies on the HepG2 cell line showed cRGDfK@GF-NLC's superiority over GF-NLC and free gefitinib. cRGDfK@GF-NLC exhibited significantly higher cytotoxicity, growth inhibition, and cellular internalization. Biodistribution studies demonstrated enhanced tumour site accumulation without organ toxicity. The findings highlight cRGDfK@GF-NLC as a highly efficient carrier for targeted drug delivery, surpassing non-functionalized NLCs. These functionalized NLCs offer promising prospects for improving hepatocarcinoma therapy outcomes by specifically targeting HCC cells. Conclusion Based on these findings, cRGDfK@GF-NLC holds immense potential as a highly efficient carrier for targeted drug delivery of anticancer agents, surpassing the capabilities of non-functionalized NLCs. This research opens up new avenues for effective treatment strategies in hepatocarcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several autoimmune disorders have been reported to be related with COVID infection. In continuation to these autoimmune phenomenon, autoimmune hemolytic anaemia (AIHA) also has been noted in COVID infected patients. The aim of the study was to find out the prevalence of red cell alloimmunization, ABO discrepancy and positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT) results in COVID infected patients hospitalised in a tertiary care centre in North India. METHODOLOGY This was a retrospective observational study done from July 2020 to June 2021. All symptomatic patients admitted to ICU tested positive for SARS CoV-2 whose blood samples were received in the immunohematology laboratory of department of Transfusion Medicine for determination of blood group and issue of packed red cells, and found to have positive antibody screen, blood group discrepancy and positive DAT results, were included in the study. RESULTS A total of 10,568 tests were run, out of which 4437 were for determination of blood group, 5842 were for antibody screen and 289 were for direct antiglobulin test. Included in this study were 146 patients who either had blood group discrepancy, or had a positive antibody screen or had a positive DAT. Out of 115 positive antibody screen, 66 patients had only alloantibodies, 44 patients had only autoantibodies while only 5 patients had both auto as well as alloantibodies. Total number of positive DAT cases was 50 (50/289 = 17.3 %). There were 26 ABO discrepancies (26/4437 =0.58 %) found. CONCLUSION Our results also indicate that there is rise in rate of alloimmunization and DAT positivity among COVID patients.

Abstract
Despite the tremendous progress made by deep learning models in image semantic segmentation, they typically require large annotated examples, and increasing attention is being diverted to problem settings like Few-Shot Learning (FSL) where only a small amount of annotation is needed for generalisation to novel classes. This is especially seen in medical domains where dense pixel-level annotations are expensive to obtain. In this paper, we propose Regularized Prototypical Neural Ordinary Differential Equation (R-PNODE), a method that leverages intrinsic properties of Neural-ODEs, assisted and enhanced by additional cluster and consistency losses to perform Few-Shot Segmentation (FSS) of organs. R-PNODE constrains support and query features from the same classes to lie closer in the representation space thereby improving the performance over the existing Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based FSS methods. We further demonstrate that while many existing Deep CNN-based methods tend to be extremely vulnerable to adversarial attacks, R-PNODE exhibits increased adversarial robustness for a wide array of these attacks. We experiment with three publicly available multi-organ segmentation datasets in both in-domain and cross-domain FSS settings to demonstrate the efficacy of our method. In addition, we perform experiments with seven commonly used adversarial attacks in various settings to demonstrate R-PNODE's robustness. R-PNODE outperforms the baselines for FSS by significant margins and also shows superior performance for a wide array of attacks varying in intensity and design.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this retrospective study, our aim was to find the effect of leucodepleted (LD) blood transfusions on the formation of anti-HLA-antibodies when compared to non-leucodepleted (non-LD) transfusions using Luminex-based method. METHODS In this study, Luminex single antigen bead assay (L-SAB) and HLA typing were performed on 310 patients. Test positivity rates (as MFI - Mean florescence intensity) were analyzed according to the different sensitization events and gender. RESULTS Of the 310 patients included in the study, 58.06% (180) patients were male and 41.93% (130) were female. The average age of the patients was 42.86 (±12.37) years. In this study, test positivity rates were significantly lower in the patients who received LD RBC units than in those who received non-LD RBC units (28.43% = 29 of 102 Vs 55.22% = 74 of 134, p < 0.05). In our study, transfusion combined with a history of pregnancy had higher number of significant HLA antibodies compared to cases where transfusion was the only sensitization event (81.81% = 18/22 Vs 39.71% = 85/214, p < 0.05). In addition, anti-HLA-antibodies-MFI were significantly (p < 0.01) higher in non-LD patients compared to LD patients. CONCLUSION Patients who received LD RBC units had a significantly lower rate of transfusion-associated alloimmunization compared to those who received non-LD RBC units. Multiparous women had a high risk for transfusion-related alloimmunization compared to both nulliparous women and male patient. Furthermore, class I-anti-HLA-antibodies (HLA-B and HLA-A + B) were significantly associated with pregnancy sensitization and/or blood transfusion as a single sensitization.

Abstract
The polarized cross-section ratio σ_{LT^{'}}/σ_{0} from hard exclusive π^{-}Δ^{++} electroproduction off an unpolarized hydrogen target has been extracted based on beam-spin asymmetry measurements using a 10.2 GeV/10.6 GeV incident electron beam and the CLAS12 spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. The study, which provides the first observation of this channel in the deep-inelastic regime, focuses on very forward-pion kinematics in the valence regime, and photon virtualities ranging from 1.5 GeV^{2} up to 7 GeV^{2}. The reaction provides a novel access to the d-quark content of the nucleon and to p→Δ^{++} transition generalized parton distributions. A comparison to existing results for hard exclusive π^{+}n and π^{0}p electroproduction is provided, which shows a clear impact of the excitation mechanism, encoded in transition generalized parton distributions, on the asymmetry.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) are the two aggressive subtypes of liver cancer (LC). Immense cellular heterogeneity and cross-talk between cancer and healthy cells make it challenging to treat these cancer subtypes. To address these challenges, the study aims to systematically characterize the tumor heterogeneity of LC subtypes using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets. The study combined 51,927 single cells from HCC, ICC, and healthy scRNA-seq datasets. After integrating the datasets, cell groups with similar gene expression patterns are clustered and cluster annotation has been performed based on gene markers. Cell-cell communication analysis (CCA) was implemented to understand the cross-talk between various cell types. Further, differential gene expression analysis and enrichment analysis were carried out to identify unique molecular drivers associated with HCC and ICC. Our analysis identified T cells, hepatocytes, epithelial cells, and monocyte as the major cell types present in the tumor microenvironment. Among them, abundance of natural killer (NK) cells in HCC, epithelial cells, and hepatocytes in ICC was detected. CCA revealed key interaction between T cells to NK cells in HCC and smooth muscle cells to epithelial cells in the ICC. Additionally, SOX4 and DTHD1 are the top differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in HCC, while keratin and CCL4 are in ICC. Enrichment analysis of DEGs reveals major upregulated genes in HCC affect protein folding mechanism and in ICC alter pathways involved in cell adhesion. The findings suggest potential targets for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for the treatment of these two aggressive subtypes of LC.

Abstract
Current anticancer drug research includes tumor-targeted administration as a critical component because it is the best strategy to boost efficacy and decrease toxicity. Low drug concentration in cancer cells, nonspecific distribution, rapid clearance, multiple drug resistance, severe side effects, and other factors contribute to the disappointing results of traditional chemotherapy. As an innovative technique of treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in recent years, nanocarrier-mediated targeted drug delivery systems can overcome the aforesaid limitations via enhanced permeability and retention effect (EPR) and active targeting. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor Gefitinib (Gefi) has dramatic effects on hepatocellular carcinoma. Herein, we developed and assessed an αvβ3 integrin receptor targeted c(RGDfk) surface modified liposomes for better targeting selectivity and therapeutic efficacy of Gefi on HCC cells. The conventional and modified Gefi loaded liposomes, i.e., denoted as Gefi-L and Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L, respectively, were prepared through the ethanol injection method and optimized via Box Behnken design (BBD). The FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy verified that the c(RGDfK) pentapeptides had formed an amide bond with the liposome surface. In addition, the particle size, Polydispersity index, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, and in-vitro Gefi release of the Gefi-L and Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L were measured and analyzed. As indicated by the MTT assay on HepG2 cells, Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L displayed considerably higher cytotoxicity than Gefi-L or Gefi alone. Throughout the incubation period, HepG2 cells took up significantly more Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L than Gefi-L. According to the in vivo biodistribution analysis, Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L accumulated more strongly at the tumor site than Gefi-L and free Gefi. Furthermore, HCC-bearing rats treated with Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L showed a substantial drop in liver marker enzymes (alanine transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate transaminase, and total bilirubin levels) compared to the disease control group. Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L suppresses tumour growth more effectively than Gefi-L and free Gefi, according to an in vivo analysis of their anticancer activities. Thus, c(RGDfk)-surface modified liposomes, i.e., Gefi-c(RGDfK)-L may serve as an efficient carrier for the targeted delivery of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) allows one to probe generalized parton distributions describing the 3D structure of the nucleon. We report the first measurement of the DVCS beam-spin asymmetry using the CLAS12 spectrometer with a 10.2 and 10.6 GeV electron beam scattering from unpolarized protons. The results greatly extend the Q^{2} and Bjorken-x phase space beyond the existing data in the valence region and provide 1600 new data points measured with unprecedented statistical uncertainty, setting new, tight constraints for future phenomenological studies.

Abstract
Electrospun nanofibers scaffolds show promising potential in wound healing applications. This work aims to fabricate nanofibrous wound dressing as a novel approach for a topical drug delivery system. Herein, the electrospinning technique is used to design and fabricate bioabsorbable nanofibrous scaffolds of Polyvinyl alcohol/gelatin/poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) enriched with thrombin (TMB) as hemostatic agent and vancomycin (VCM) as anti-bacterial agent for a multifunctional platform to control excessive blood loss, inhibit bacterial growth and enhance wound healing. SEM, FTIR, XRD, in vitro drug release, antimicrobial studies, biofilm, cell viability assay, and in vivo study in a rat model were used to assess nanofiber's structural, mechanical, and biological aspects. SEM images confirms the diameter of nanofibers which falls within the range from 150 to 300 nm for all the batches. Excellent swelling index data makes it suitable to absorb wound exudates. In-vitro drug release data shows sustained release behavior of nanofiber. Nanofibers scaffolds showed biomimetic behavior and excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, scaffolds exhibited excellent antimicrobial and biofilm activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Nanofibrous scaffolds showed less bleeding time, rapid blood coagulation, and excellent wound closure in a rat model. ELISA study demonstrated the decreasing level of inflammatory markers, such as TNF-α, IL1β, and IL-6, making formulation promising for hemostatic wound healing applications. Finally, the study concludes that nanofibrous scaffolds loaded with TMB and VCM have promising potential as a dressing material for hemostatic wound healing applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapeutic apheresis procedures are becoming an increasingly integral part of modern medical practice, be it as a part of therapy or pre-conditioning regimes for solid organ transplants. In our center, we follow the American Society for Apheresis (ASFA) guidelines for categorizing these procedures. However, lack of a centralized registry for therapeutic apheresis in India, lack of consolidated data as well as a resource-constrained setting prevent it from being utilized to its full potential. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This study was a retrospective analysis of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) procedures performed from January 2015 to October 2022 in the Department of Transfusion Medicine at a large tertiary care hospital in North India. All consecutive TPE procedures were included. Overall and specialty-wise scoring for all patients was performed. Mean scores were calculated. RESULTS A total of 1434 procedures were performed during the study duration of 7 years. These procedures were performed for 284 different patients. Majority of the procedures were referred from nephrology (895 of 1434, 62.4%), followed by neurology, gastroenterology, and liver transplant teams, hematology, critical care, rheumatology, pediatrics, and internal medicine. Complete response, partial response, and no-response were observed in 1077 (75.1%), 201 (14%), and 156 (10.9%) procedures respectively. Only 14 procedures reported adverse effects. DISCUSSION Increasing effectiveness of TPE in a number of procedures and a variety of indications has broadened its scope, while the small number of adverse events, when supervised by trained Transfusion Medicine physicians has made TPE a more viable and safer alternative to other treatment modalities.

Abstract
We report results of Λ hyperon production in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering off deuterium, carbon, iron, and lead targets obtained with the CLAS detector and the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility 5.014 GeV electron beam. These results represent the first measurements of the Λ multiplicity ratio and transverse momentum broadening as a function of the energy fraction (z) in the current and target fragmentation regions. The multiplicity ratio exhibits a strong suppression at high z and an enhancement at low z. The measured transverse momentum broadening is an order of magnitude greater than that seen for light mesons. This indicates that the propagating entity interacts very strongly with the nuclear medium, which suggests that propagation of diquark configurations in the nuclear medium takes place at least part of the time, even at high z. The trends of these results are qualitatively described by the Giessen Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck transport model, particularly for the multiplicity ratios. These observations will potentially open a new era of studies of the structure of the nucleon as well as of strange baryons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The main objective of this study was to determine the results of the cell-based assay (CDC-XM and FC-XM), and correlate with the results of solid phase assay (L-SAB). METHODS In this retrospective study, 350 prospective renal transplant recipients were tested for the presence of HLA antibodies by CDC-XM, FC-XM and L-SAB screening with their corresponding donor. RESULTS T-cell-FC-XM showed a sensitivity of 71.43% and a specificity of 91.50% for detecting class I L-SAB (+), while B-cell-FCXM showed a sensitivity of 94.94% and a specificity of 61.99% for detecting class II L-SAB (+). On the other hand, T-CDC-XM showed a sensitivity of 32.14% and a specificity of 98.64% for detecting class I L-SAB (+), while B-CDC-XM showed a sensitivity of 44.30% and a specificity of 94.83% for detecting class II L-SAB (+). In this study, the results indicated that DSA class I MFI value of 2845 and above significantly (p ≤0.001) correlated with T-cell-FC-XM positivity, while MFI value of 4585 and above (p ≤0.001) showed strong predictive accuracy of a positive T-cell-CDC-XM. However, DSA class II MFI cut-off of 1988 and above significantly (p ≤0.001) correlated with B-cell-FC-XM positivity, while MFI value of 5986 and above (p ≤0.001) showed strong predictive accuracy of a positive B-cell-CDC-XM. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that CDC-XM has poor sensitivity, while FC-XM has poor specificity to detect DSA. L-SAB has good correlation with T-cell-FC-XM (p < 0.0001) but not with B-cell-FC-XM (P = 0.31). DSA strength >2845 and > 1988 significantly correlated with T-cell-FC-XM positivity and B-cell-FC-XM positivity, respectively. While, a MFI value of >4585 and > 5986 significantly correlated with T-cell-CDC-XM positivity and B-cell-CDC-XM positivity, respectively. These MFI cut-off values could serve as a surrogate marker for CDC-XM and FC-XM tests and may help in resolving the limitations of cell-based techniques. In conclusion, we found that L-SAB is more sensitive and specific than CDC-XM and FC-XM and therefore may be used as a test of choice.

Abstract
We developed an orally delivered nanoemulsion that induces cancer immunization. It consists of tumor antigen-loaded nano-vesicles carrying the potent invariant natural killer T-cell (iNKT) activator α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer), to trigger cancer immunity by effectively activating both innate and adaptive immunity. It was validated that adding bile salts to the system boosted intestinal lymphatic transport as well as the oral bioavailability of ovalbumin (OVA) via the chylomicron pathway. To increase intestinal permeability further and amplify the antitumor responses, an ionic complex of cationic lipid 1,2-dioleyl-3-trimethylammonium propane (DTP) with sodium deoxycholate (DA) (DDP) and α-GalCer were anchored onto the outer oil layer to form OVA-NE#3. As expected, OVA-NE#3 exhibited tremendously improved intestinal cell permeability as well as enhanced delivery to mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs). Subsequent activation of dendritic cells and iNKTs, in MLNs were also observed. Tumor growth in OVA-expressing mice with melanoma was more strongly suppressed (by 71%) after oral administration of OVA-NE#3 than in untreated controls, confirming the strong immune response induced by the system. The serum levels of OVA-specific IgG1 and IgG2a were 3.52- and 6.14-fold higher than in controls. Treating OVA-NE#3 increased the numbers of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, including cytotoxic T-cell and M1-like macrophage. Antigen- and α-GalCer-associated enrichment of dendritic cells and iNKTs in tumor tissues also increased after OVA-NE#3 treatment. These observations indicate that our system induces both cellular and humoral immunity by targeting the oral lymphatic system. It may offer a promising oral anti-cancer vaccination strategy that involves the induction of systemic anti-cancer immunization.

Abstract
The morbidity rate following a surgical procedure increasing rapidly in the cases associated with surgical site infections. Traditional sutures lack the ability to deliver drugs as the incorporation of the drug in their structure would hamper their mechanical properties. To prevent such infections, we developed an extracellular matrix mimicking electrospun nanofibrous yarns of Poly-(D, L)-lactic acid and Polyvinyl alcohol loaded with Vancomycin and Ferulic Acid, prepared by uniaxial electrospinning technique. In-vitro characterization such as scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, tensile strength testing, degradation studies, and antimicrobial studies along with in-vivo evaluation done with help of incision wound healing rat model and simultaneous testing of microbial load in the incised tissue. The in-vitro studies indicated the nanofiber yarns have size range 200-300 nm with a tensile strength of 7.54±0.58 MPa. The dual drug-loaded yarn showed sustained drug release over a period of 48 hr. In-vitro water uptake and biodegradation data indicated optimum results suitable for suturing applications. Antimicrobial study showed excellent antimicrobial activity against both S. aureus and E. coli. Results obtained from in-vivo study suggested excellent wound healing potential of nanofiber yarns as compared with commercial silk sutures. The histopathological studies confirmed restoring ability of nanofiber yarn to the normal skin structure. ELISA study revealed the downregulation of inflammatory markers i.e. TNF-Alpha and IL-6, making nanofibers sutures suitable for surgical wound healing applications. Overall, the present study may conclude that the developed dual drug-loaded nanofiber yarns have excellent potential in surgical wound healing applications.

Abstract
Excessive exploitation, negligence, non-degradable nature, and physical and chemical properties of plastic waste have resulted in a massive pollution load into the environment. Consequently, plastic entres the food chain and can cause serious health issues in aquatic animals and humans. The present review summarizes currently reported techniques and approaches for the removal of plastic waste. Many techniques, such as adsorption, coagulation, photocatalysis, and microbial degradation, and approaches like reduction, reuse and recycling are potentially in trend and differ from each other in their efficiency and interaction mechanism. Moreover, substantial advantages and challenges associated with these techniques and approaches are highlighted to develop an understanding of the selection of possible ways for a sustainable future. Nevertheless, in addition to the reduction of plastic waste from the ecosystem, many alternative opportunities have also been explored to cash plastic waste. These fields include the synthesis of adsorbents for the removal of pollutants from aqueous and gaseous stream, their utility in clothing, waste to energy and fuel and in construction (road making). Substantial evidence can be observed in the reduction of plastic pollution from various ecosystems. In addition, it is important to develop an understanding of factors that need to be emphasized while considering alternative approaches and opportunities to cash plastic waste (like adsorbent, clothing, waste to energy and fuel). The thrust of this review is to provide readers with a comprehensive overview of the development status of techniques and approaches to overcome the global issue of plastic pollution and the outlook on the exploitation of this waste as resources.

Abstract
Anti-Cw antibody is an immunoglobulin against the red cell antigen Cw which is a low frequency red cell antigen that belongs to the Rh antigen system. It is a clinically significant antibody and may cause haemolysis on exposure to antigen positive red cells. Due to its low frequency, it is not included in routine antibody screening panels. A 32 years healthy male donor with no history of transfusion donated whole blood at the department of Transfusion Medicine & Blood Centre of our institute. As a part of routine pre-transfusion testing, the donor's samples were subjected to automated blood grouping and screening for unexpected red cell antibodies using 3 cells panel on solid-phase red-cell adherence (SPRCA) (Galileo Neo, Immucor, Norcross, USA). The antibody screening came out to be positive with a reaction in cell I of the antibody screening panel. Further the antibody was identified as anti Cw in using 16 cells panel, select cells and phenotyping. In the present case, the anti-Cw antibody was found to be reactive at 37 °C and AHG phase which could lead to haemolytic transfusion reaction. The fact that the male donor had no history of transfusion or transplant led us to the conclusion that it was a naturally occurring, but a clinically significant antibody. This case highlights the importance of performing an antibody screening for healthy donors as well and urges transfusion services to procure screening cells which incorporate Cw positive cells.

Abstract
We report the first measurements of deep inelastic scattering spin-dependent azimuthal asymmetries in back-to-back dihadron electroproduction in the deep inelastic scattering process. In this reaction, two hadrons are produced in opposite hemispheres along the z axis in the virtual photon-target nucleon center-of-mass frame, with the first hadron produced in the current-fragmentation region and the second in the target-fragmentation region. The data were taken with longitudinally polarized electron beams of 10.2 and 10.6 GeV incident on an unpolarized liquid-hydrogen target using the CLAS12 spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. Observed nonzero sinΔϕ modulations in ep→e^{'}pπ^{+}X events, where Δϕ is the difference of the azimuthal angles of the proton and pion in the virtual photon and target nucleon center-of-mass frame, indicate that correlations between the spin and transverse momenta of hadrons produced in the target- and current-fragmentation regions may be significant. The measured beam-spin asymmetries provide a first access in dihadron production to a previously unexplored leading-twist spin- and transverse-momentum-dependent fracture function. The fracture functions describe the hadronization of the target remnant after the hard scattering of a virtual photon off a quark in the target particle and provide a new avenue for studying nucleonic structure and hadronization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Despite knowing benefits of extended phenotyping, a vast majority feel that phenotype matched units add to the cost of blood banking. The purpose of this study was to discuss advantages and disadvantages of performing Rh Kell phenotyping in Indian scenario. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a prospective, observational study conducted at a tertiary healthcare center between July 2014 and February 2020. All consecutive whole blood donors and all consecutive patients whose samples were sent for Rh-Kell phenotyping were included for calculating antigen, phenotype and gene frequencies. For rate of alloimmunization in patients transfused with phenotype matched units, all patients who were given Rh-Kell phenotype matched transfusions were included in the prophylactic antigen matched (PAM) category and those who were given random units were included in the non-PAM category. RESULTS A total of 37,588 donors and 258 patients were included in the study for calculation of antigen, phenotype and gene frequencies. Percentage similarity of phenotypes between patient and donor populations was 33.8%. For rate of alloimmunization, results of a total of 31,991 patient samples revealed 0.94% prevalence of unexpected antibodies; highest against the Rh system. Three patients in the non-PAM category and one in the PAM category were alloimmunized during follow-up. Significant clinical and laboratory impact of phenotyping was observed in terms of reduced turnaround time and consumption of resources. CONCLUSION Rh-Kell phenotyping of donors can prevent alloimmunization, reduce cost burden on the patient and the laboratory and help the laboratory personnel in smooth routine testing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS When determining ABO antibody titers, immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies can be masked by immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies. Hence, the measurement of actual concentration of IgG requires methods like heat inactivation (HI) of plasma. This study was aimed at determining the effects of HI on IgM and IgG titers performed by conventional tube technique (CTT) and column agglutination technique (CAT). MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a prospective, observational study conducted from October 2019 to March 2020. All consecutive A, B, and O group donors who gave consent for participation were included. All samples were consecutively tested by CTT and CAT, before and after HI (pCTT, pCAT). RESULTS A total of 300 donors were included. IgG titers were found to be more than IgM titers. For group O, IgG titer results were higher for both anti-A and anti-B compared to group A and B. For group A, B, and O, pretreatment results were higher than posttreatment IgG titer results. Median anti-A titers were similar to median anti-B titers across all categories. Median IgM and IgG titers were higher for group O individuals than nongroup O individuals. There was reduction in IgG and IgM titers after HI of plasma. One log reduction in median titers was observed when ABO titers were performed by CAT and CTT. CONCLUSION There is one log difference between median antibody titers estimated using heat inactivated and nonheat inactivated plasma. The use of HI for ABO isoagglutinin titer estimation can be considered in low resource settings.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a complex autoimmune skin condition with a significant genetic component. It causes skin inflammation and is characterized by flaky, silvery reddish spots that can worsen with age. This condition results from an impaired immunological response of T-cells and affects 2-5% of the global population. The severity of the illness determines the choice of treatment. Topical treatments are commonly used to treat psoriasis, but they can have several adverse effects. Biological therapy is another option for treating specific types of psoriasis. Recently, new nanoformulations have revolutionized psoriasis treatment. Various nanocarriers, such as liposomes, nanostructured lipid nanoparticles, niosomes, and nanoemulsions, have been developed and improved for drug delivery. The use of nanocarriers enhances patient compliance, precise drug delivery, and drug safety. This review aims to suggest new nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems for treating psoriasis. It discusses the importance of nanocarriers and compares them to traditional treatments. Anti-psoriatic drugs have also been investigated for cutaneous delivery using nanocarriers. The review also covers various factors that influence dermal targeting. By highlighting several relevant aspects of psoriasis treatment, the review emphasizes the current potential of nanotechnology. Using nanocarriers as a drug delivery technique may be a promising alternative treatment for psoriasis.

Abstract
Introduction Foot ulceration is one of the most severe and debilitating complications of diabetes, which leads to the cause of non-traumatic lower-extremity amputation in 15-24% of affected individuals. The healing of diabetic foot (DF) is a significant therapeutic problem due to complications from the multifactorial healing process. Electrospun nanofibrous scaffold loaded with various wound dressing materials has excellent wound healing properties due to its multifunctional action. Purpose This work aimed to develop and characterize chitosan (CS)-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) blended electrospun multifunctional nanofiber loaded with curcumin (CUR) and zinc oxide (ZnO) to accelerate diabetic wound healing in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Results In-vitro characterization results revealed that nanofiber was fabricated successfully using the electrospinning technique. SEM results confirmed the smooth surface with web-like fiber nanostructure diameter ranging from 200 - 250 nm. An in-vitro release study confirmed the sustained release of CUR and ZnO for a prolonged time. In-vitro cell-line studies demonstrated significantly low cytotoxicity of nanofiber in HaCaT cells. Anti-bacterial studies demonstrated good anti-bacterial and anti-biofilm activities of nanofiber. In-vivo animal studies demonstrated an excellent wound-healing efficiency of the nanofibers in STZ-induced diabetic rats. Furthermore, the ELISA assay revealed that the optimized nanofiber membrane terminated the inflammatory phases successfully by downregulating the pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, MMP-2, and MMP-9) in wound healing. In-vitro and in-vivo studies conclude that the developed nanofiber loaded with bioactive material can promote diabetic wound healing efficiently via multifunction action such as the sustained release of bioactive molecules for a prolonged time of duration, proving anti-bacterial/anti-biofilm properties and acceleration of cell migration and proliferation process during the wound healing. Discussion CUR-ZnO electrospun nanofibers could be a promising drug delivery platform with the potential to be scaled up to treat diabetic foot ulcers effectively.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of dihadron angular correlations in electron-nucleus scattering. The data were taken with the CLAS detector and a 5.0 GeV electron beam incident on deuterium, carbon, iron, and lead targets. Relative to deuterium, the nuclear yields of charged-pion pairs show a strong suppression for azimuthally opposite pairs, no suppression for azimuthally nearby pairs, and an enhancement of pairs with large invariant mass. These effects grow with increased nuclear size. The data are qualitatively described by the gibuu model, which suggests that hadrons form near the nuclear surface and undergo multiple scattering in nuclei.These results show that angular correlation studies can open a new way to elucidate how hadrons form and interact inside nuclei.

Abstract
Tourism is one of the lifelines in nations for their strong economy. Through the expansion of tourism industry, enormous amounts of plastic materials are disposed that have detrimental effects on environment, animal and human health. The present study demonstrates the role of tourists on generation of plastic waste and further statistical approach was used to investigate the impact of knowledge, behaviour, and attitude of tourists towards generation of plastic waste. Result shows that the tourists play key role in generating plastic waste at outdoor places which is a serious issue that could block drainage ways in city which leads to many waters born disease. The study highlights that the awareness can make certain changes in plastic waste generation and can bridge the knowledge-practice gap. Moreover, the circular economy can offer opportunity to exploit plastic waste into various decorative and useful products that can generate income to local community and help to reduce plastic wastes. It is also important to highlight that the government needs to take care of surveillance in the market on using plastic bags either by sellers or consumers.

Abstract
Skeletal-related disorders such as arthritis, bone cancer, osteosarcoma, and osteoarthritis are among the most common reasons for mortality in humans at present. Nanostructured scaffolds have been discovered to be more efficient for bone regeneration than macro/micro-sized scaffolds because they sufficiently permit cell adhesion, proliferation, and chemical transformation. Nanofibrous scaffolds mimicking artificial extracellular matrices provide a natural environment for tissue regeneration owing to their large surface area, high porosity, and appreciable drug loading capacity. Here, we review recent progress and possible future prospective electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. Electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds have demonstrated promising potential in bone tissue regeneration using a variety of nanomaterials. This review focused on the crucial role of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds in biological applications, including drug/growth factor delivery to bone tissue regeneration. Natural and synthetic polymeric nanofibrous scaffolds are extensively inspected to regenerate bone tissue. We focused mainly on the significant impact of nanofibrous composite scaffolds on cell adhesion and function, and different composites of organic/inorganic nanoparticles with nanofiber scaffolds. This analysis provides an overview of nanofibrous scaffold-based bone regeneration strategies; however, the same concepts can be applied to other organ and tissue regeneration tactics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients awaiting solid organ transplantation may develop anti-HLA antibodies after sensitization events such as transfusions, pregnancies, or previous transplantations. However, the effects of a particular sensitization event on HLA alloimmunization have not been well studied in parallel using cell-based assays and solid-phase assays. In this study, we evaluated and compare how different sensitization events affect the HLA antibody screening (HLA-Ab) and donor specific antibody (DSA) status in solid renal organ transplantation patients. METHODS HLA antibody (HLA-Ab) screening tests like complement-dependent cytotoxicity crossmatch (CDC-XM), flow cytometry crossmatch (FC-XM) & Luminex panel-reactive antibody (L-PRA) were performed in all 1066 patients (635 males and 431 females). If any of these tests turned out to be positive, a Luminex single antigen bead (L-SAB) assay was performed for DSA identification. Test positive rates and antibody strengths were analyzed according to the different sensitization events and gender. RESULTS In this study, HLA-Ab screening tests positive rates (L-PRA, FC-XM and CDC-XM) were significantly higher in patients with previous transplantation (73.91%, 86.95% and 56.52% p < 0.001), previous pregnancy (57.46%, 70.14% and 18.85% p < 0.001) or blood transfusion (27.33%, 35.55% and 7.33% p < 0.001) compared with patients without a sensitizing event (6.17%, 13.58% & 1.09). In this study, re-transplantation group showed significantly stronger antibody strength (DSA) than non sensitized group (class I & II MFI 11418.04, 17,837.78 vs class I & II MFI 2659, 3329; P < 0.001) and those with single sensitization events of transfusion (class I & II MFI 11418.04, 17,837.78 vs class I & II MFI 5598.82, 5436.12; P < 0.001) or pregnancy (class I & II MFI 11418, 17,837 vs class I & II MFI 8580.12, 7556.08; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Pregnancy and blood transfused had high allo-immunization rate for class I HLA antigens. While re-transplantation patients had high allo-immunization rate for both the HLA classes (HLA- class I & HLA- class II). Re-transplantation group showed significantly stronger antibody strength, followed by pregnancy and then transfusion.

Abstract
Advances in immune suppression therapies and desensitization have made possible kidney transplantation regardless of HLA incompatibility. Single antigen bead assay (SAB) is a semi-quantitative estimation of the amount of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies present in the recipient plasma, and mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) generated gives this rough estimation of the antibodies present in the recipient. Here we present a case of successful kidney transplantation in a patient who expressed DSA with high MFI. A 33-yr-old male, diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on regular maintenance hemodialysis, opted for second kidney transplant with his sibling as prospective donor and was referred to the department of Transplant Immunology for histocompatibility testing. Patient had HLA incompatibility with multiple DSA identified by SAB. Patient undergone 20 sessions of plasma exchange till discharge and finally till 6 months graft was functioning well. The authors thus conclude that the option of a high-risk HLA incompatible kidney transplant can be offered to recipients with high MFI DSA, who wish to undergo transplantation for end stage renal disease.

Abstract
MOTIVATION In the past few years, researchers have proposed numerous indexing schemes for searching large datasets of raw sequencing experiments. Most of these proposed indexes are approximate (i.e. with one-sided errors) in order to save space. Recently, researchers have published exact indexes-Mantis, VariMerge and Bifrost-that can serve as colored de Bruijn graph representations in addition to serving as k-mer indexes. This new type of index is promising because it has the potential to support more complex analyses than simple searches. However, in order to be useful as indexes for large and growing repositories of raw sequencing data, they must scale to thousands of experiments and support efficient insertion of new data. RESULTS In this paper, we show how to build a scalable and updatable exact raw sequence-search index. Specifically, we extend Mantis using the Bentley-Saxe transformation to support efficient updates, called Dynamic Mantis. We demonstrate Dynamic Mantis's scalability by constructing an index of ≈40K samples from SRA by adding samples one at a time to an initial index of 10K samples. Compared to VariMerge and Bifrost, Dynamic Mantis is more efficient in terms of index-construction time and memory, query time and memory and index size. In our benchmarks, VariMerge and Bifrost scaled to only 5K and 80 samples, respectively, while Dynamic Mantis scaled to more than 39K samples. Queries were over 24× faster in Mantis than in Bifrost (VariMerge does not immediately support general search queries we require). Dynamic Mantis indexes were about 2.5× smaller than Bifrost's indexes and about half as big as VariMerge's indexes. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION Dynamic Mantis implementation is available at https://github.com/splatlab/mantis/tree/mergeMSTs. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Abstract
e17010 Background: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a known complication in patients of testicular germ cell tumors . Early metabolic syndrome is not well-defined and literature on the same is scarce. Methods: This is a single institutional prospective cohort study of patients with testicular germ cell tumors from Jan’2020 to June 2021 with a minimum follow-up of 6 months after treatment completion. Patients were evaluated for MS as per NCEP ATP (National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Plan) III criteria and partial MS was defined if any one abnormal criteria was present. Clinicopathologic and treatment characteristics were correlated with development of MS. Results: Thirty-six (25 nonseminomatous tumor and 11 seminoma) were included with median age of 29 yrs (range: 18-44). Treatment protocol was - platinum based chemotherapy [BEP (n = 7), EP(n = 18),VIP(n = 4) ]in 81% (n = 29/36), single agent carboplatin in 8% (n = 3/36), and surveillance only in 11% (n = 4/36) patients. Incidence of complete metabolic syndrome noted in 42% (n = 15) and partial metabolic syndrome in 36% (n = 13) of patients after median follow-up of 13.2 months (range-6-22). Deranged parameters detected were - high serum triglyceride (≥150 mg/dl) in 64% (n = 23/36), low serum HDL cholesterol (< 40 mg/dl) in 53% (n = 19/36), high blood pressure (≥130/85 mm of Hg) in 47% (n = 17/36), high waist circumference (> 110 cm) in 6% (n = 2/36) and high fasting plasma glucose (≥5.6 mmol/L) in 22% (n = 8/36) of patients. Median weight gain was 5 Kg (range: 2-14). The median time to development of metabolic syndrome was 143 days (range: 90-461). Hypogonadism (testosterone < 433ng/dl.) showed positive correlation (degree of freedom = 0.3143) and C-reactive protein showed negative correlation (degree of freedom -0.3090) with MS, respectively. Conclusions: Majority of Testicular germ cell tumor patients (n = 28, 78%) had features of early MS, irrespective of treatment modalities. Patients with hypogonadism are more likely to develop early MS. Larger prospective studies are warranted to assess the incidence of early MS in patients with testicular germ cell tumors and to formulate appropriate health intervention to mitigate its significant long-term effects on mortality and morbidity.

Abstract
The range of effectiveness of the novel corona virus, known as COVID-19, has been continuously spread worldwide with the severity of associated disease and effective variation in the rate of contact. This paper investigates the COVID-19 virus dynamics among the human population with the prediction of the size of epidemic and spreading time. Corona virus disease was first diagnosed on January 30, 2020 in India. From January 30, 2020 to April 21, 2020, the number of patients was continuously increased. In this scientific work, our main objective is to estimate the effectiveness of various preventive tools adopted for COVID-19. The COVID-19 dynamics is formulated in which the parameters of interactions between people, contact tracing, and average latent time are included. Experimental data are collected from April 15, 2020 to April 21, 2020 in India to investigate this virus dynamics. The Genocchi collocation technique is applied to investigate the proposed fractional mathematical model numerically via Caputo-Fabrizio fractional derivative. The effect of presence of various COVID parameters e.g. quarantine time is also presented in the work. The accuracy and efficiency of the outputs of the present work are demonstrated through the pictorial presentation by comparing it to known statistical data. The real data for COVID-19 in India is compared with the numerical results obtained from the concerned COVID-19 model. From our results, to control the expansion of this virus, various prevention measures must be adapted such as self-quarantine, social distancing, and lockdown procedures.

Abstract
The Swachh Bharat Mission undertaken by the Government of India (GoI) has been successful in accomplishing this objective within a short period thereby catalyzing governance following Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is the responsibility of any democratic nation to ensure that its citizens have universal access to adequate and equitable sanitation. The key approach adapted to igniting a change in sanitation behavior rather than constructing toilets. An effort has been made in the study to affirm that even the marginalized sections of the society residing in tribal communities of West Bengal and Chhattisgarh have benefitted from this Government of India Mission and derived the required benefits. There is enough literature available to support the justification that civil participation holds the key for successful implementation of CLTS thereby making the communities open defecation free (ODF). It is therefore imperative to understand the behavioral transformation that takes place during the CLTS implementation. A hybrid model has been proposed in the study making use of the theory of reasoned action (TRA) and theory of planned behavior (TPB) to understand the pre-adoption and post-adoption behavior of residents. In present study, used model was empirically tested for several hypotheses. The finding reflects towards subjective norms and facilitating conditions as major determinants that ensure the continuation of intention for CLTS. They play a pivotal role in improving the health and hygiene conditions in the region and thus decrease the risk of spread of epidemic diseases.

Abstract
e21101 Background: Systemic inflammation has been linked to incidence, progression, and poor outcomes in various cancers including non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). High-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) assays, generally used to assess cardiovascular risk, have rarely been evaluated in lung cancer studies. This study aimed to evaluate if baseline and on-treatment measurements of serum hs-CRP could provide prognostic and predictive information for patients with metastatic NSCLC treated with chemotherapy. Methods: In this single institutional prospective study 85 patients with metastatic NSCLC without targetable alterations who were treated with chemotherapy were included between 1st January 2020 and 31st December 2020, with a minimum follow-up duration of 6 months. Patients with coronary artery disease, active infections, autoimmune conditions, and chronic liver disease were excluded. Measurements of hs-CRP for all patients were done at baseline and every 12 weeks while on treatment. Patients were grouped by changes in hs-CRP levels compared to baseline levels as reduction (≥ 20% decline), and non-reduction (< 20% decline) to assess association with radiologic response and progression- free survival (PFS). Results: Pre-treatment hs-CRP values were elevated for the majority (92.9% patients with ≥ 1 mg/L, 70.6% with ≥ 3 mg/L, and 42.3% with ≥ 10 mg/dL). No significant association was detected between the pre-treatment hs-CRP value and the number of metastatic sites (P = 0.4), histology (P = 0.3), or smoking status (P = 0.7). At a median follow-up of 13.7 months, the median PFS was 7.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 5.3 - 10.3). Patients with hs-CRP ≥10 mg/L had shorter PFS than those with hs-CRP < 10 mg/L (Median PFS 7.5 months [95% CI 4.9 - 10] vs. 8.4 months [95% CI 0.1 - 17.4]; hazard ratio [HR] 1.8, 95% CI 1-3.4, P = 0.04). hs-CRP reduction (≥20% decline) after 12 weeks of treatment initiation predicted radiological response (P < 0.001). Median PFS was 14.7 months (95% CI 7.4 – 22.1) in patients who demonstrated hs-CRP reduction (≥20% decline) at 12 weeks compared to 3.1 months (95% CI 2.3 – 3.9) in patients who did not (HR 0.17, 95% CI 0.08 - 0.33, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Elevated hs-CRP at baseline was found to be a poor prognostic factor, while hs-CRP reduction by 20% or more on treatment predicted radiologic response and longer PFS in metastatic NSCLC patients treated with chemotherapy. Our findings of potential predictive and prognostic value of hs-CRP in metastatic NSCLC warrant validation in larger prospective studies.

Abstract
<b>Introduction:</b> Cell-based complement-dependent cytotoxicity crossmatch (CDC-XM) and solid phase assays were introduced for assessing HLA antibodies. However, the complexity of data from cell-based and solid phase assays have led to potential confusion about how to use the results for clinical decision making. </br></br> <b> Aim:</b> Aim of this study was to compare results of cell-based assay and solid phase assay, to evaluate the usefulness of L-XM for pretransplant detection of HLA class I and II donor-specific IgG antibodies, correlate the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) values of class I and class II L-XM assay and with CDC-XM and L-PRA (panel reactive antibodies) results. </br></br> <b> Methods:</b> In this retrospective study, 380 prospective renal transplant recipients were tested for the presence of HLA antibodies by CDC-XM, IgG-L-XM, IgG-L-PRA & L-SAB screening with their corresponding donor. </br></br> <b>Results:</b> Fifty-one recipients (13.42%) had a positive CDC-XM. L-XM was positive in 125 recipients (32.89%); class I-L-XM was positive in 46 (36.80%) cases, and class II-L-XM was positive in 58 (46.4%) cases and 21 (16.8%) samples were positive for class I and class II. High background was present in 22 (5.87%) samples, the results of which were confirmed by retesting or by correlation with L-PRA and L-SAB assays. </br></br> <b>Conclusion:</b> The introduction of more sensitive approaches for the detection of anti-HLA-IgG-antibodies, such as L-XM and L-PRA assay, has allowed the identification of anti-HLA-antibodies in recipient serum which is not usually identified by CDC-XM alone. However, L-XM has some limitations; they can be overcome if we combine this assay with L-PRA.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulceration is the most distressing complication of diabetes having no standard therapy. Nanofibers are an emerging and versatile nanotechnology-based drug-delivery system with unique wound-healing properties. This study aimed to prepare and evaluate silk-sericin based hybrid nanofibrous mats for diabetic foot ulcer. The nanofibrous mats were prepared by electrospinning using silk sericin mixed with different proportions of polycaprolactone (PCL) and cellulose acetate (CA) loaded with ferulic acid (FA). The in vitro characterizations, such as surface morphology, mechanical properties, swelling behavior, biodegradability, scanning electron microscopy, and drug release were carried out. The SEM images indicated that nanofibers formed with varied diameters, ranging from 100 to 250 nm, and their tensile strength was found to range from 7 to 15 MPa. In vitro release demonstrated that the nanofibers sustained FA release over an extended time of period. In vitro cytotoxicity showed that the nanofibers possessed a lower cytotoxicity in HaCaT cells. The in vivo wound-healing studies demonstrated an excellent wound-healing efficiency of the nanofibers in diabetic rats. Furthermore, the histopathological studies showed the nanofibers’ ability to restore the skin’s normal structure. Therefore, it was concluded that the prepared silk-sericin-based hybrid nanofibers loaded with FA could be a promising drug-delivery platform for the effective treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.

Abstract
To prepare a topical formulation of bimatoprost (BIM) with high skin permeability, we designed a solvent mixture system composed of ethanol, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, cyclomethicone, and butylated hydroxyanisole, serving as a volatile solvent, nonvolatile co-solvent, spreading agent, and antioxidant, respectively. The ideal topical BIM formulation (BIM–TF#5) exhibited 4.60-fold higher human skin flux and a 529% increase in dermal drug deposition compared to BIM in ethanol. In addition, compared to the other formulations, BIM–TF#5 maximally activated human dermal papilla cell proliferation at a concentration of 5 μM BIM, equivalent to 10 μM minoxidil. Moreover, BIM–TF#5 (0.3% [w/w] BIM) significantly promoted hair regrowth in the androgenic alopecia mouse model and increased the area covered by hair at 10 days by 585% compared to the vehicle-treated mice, indicating that entire telogen area transitioned into the anagen phase. Furthermore, at day 14, the hair weight of mice treated with BIM–TF#5 (5% [w/w] BIM) was 8.45- and 1.30-fold greater than in the 5% (w/w) BIM in ethanol and 5% (w/v) minoxidil treated groups, respectively. In the histological examination, the number and diameter of hair follicles in the deep subcutis were significantly increased in the BIM–TF#5 (0.3 or 5% [w/w] BIM)-treated mice compared to the mice treated with vehicle or 5% (w/w) BIM in ethanol. Thus, our findings suggest that BIM–TF#5 is an effective formulation to treat scalp alopecia, as part of a novel therapeutic approach involving direct prostamide F2α receptor-mediated stimulation of dermal papilla cells within hair follicles.
