Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic cardiovascular disorder characterized by unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy, affecting approximately 0.2% of the global population. Around 40% of HCM cases are linked to mutations in sarcomeric protein genes such as β-myosin heavy chain and myosin-binding protein C, which impair calcium signaling and myocardial contractility.

Tethered cord syndrome (TCS) is estimated to affect approximately 25 per 100 000 live births. Despite advancements in medical knowledge and technology, the persistence of this issue is attributed to challenges in early detection and limited awareness, often resulting in undiagnosed cases until adulthood. Constipation serves as a noteworthy symptom in children with TCS, yet it frequently goes unnoticed or is ascribed to other causes, leading to delayed diagnosis and negatively impacting a child's quality of life.

Background: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a known cause of mortality worldwide, especially in Western countries. One of the various treatment strategies includes vascular access for the administration of life-saving drugs such as epinephrine and lidocaine. While intravenous (IV) access is traditionally performed, recent studies have evaluated the use of intraosseous (IO) access as an alternative.

Traditional drug discovery methods such as wet-lab testing, validations, and synthetic techniques are time-consuming and expensive. Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches have progressed to the point where they can have a significant impact on the drug discovery process. Using massive volumes of open data, artificial intelligence methods are revolutionizing the pharmaceutical industry.

Article Synopsis
  • Organic solvents are harmful and should be swapped for safer alternatives, especially when creating new medicines with low solubility.
  • The mixed solvency concept enhances solubility by using a concentrated mix of various substances to dissolve poorly soluble drugs, while minimizing toxic solubilizers.
  • This review examines green solvents, like bio-based options and deep eutectic solvents, as better replacements for traditional solvents in improving medication solubility.

Cancer and other diseases can be treated with cubosomes, which are lyotropic nonlamellar liquid crystalline nanoparticles (LCNs). These cubosomes can potentially be a highly versatile carrier with theranostic efficacy, as they can be ingested, applied topically, or injected intravenously. Recent years have seen substantial progress in the synthesis, characterization, regulation of drug release patterns, and target selectivity of loaded anticancer bioactive compounds.

Biotechnologists have pioneered the idea of an edible vaccination in recent years. Subunit vaccines, such as those used to create edible vaccines, involve the introduction of certain genes into transgenic plants, which are subsequently coaxed into producing the corresponding protein. Bananas, potatoes, legumes, lettuce, soybeans, corn, and rice are all examples of foods that fall under this category.
