Article Abstract
Volatile profile of fresh, whole 'Rama Forte' persimmons treated with CO or ethanol (EtOH) vapor for astringency removal, and the relationship of the main volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with the loss of astringency were investigated. Persimmons were harvested at the commercial maturity stage and treated with 70 % CO, 18 h, or 1.70 mL kg EtOH, 6 h. Headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry allowed the tentative identification of 34 VOCs, 15 of them are reported for the first time on persimmons. Ethanol was the relevant compound common to CO and EtOH-treated samples in the first days after treatment, while acetoin, hexanal, and trans-2-hexenal ((E)-hex-2-enal) were the relevant VOCs in samples from the last days after treatment. As the astringency reached its lowest levels, some of the main VOCs had their relative intensity increased. Pentadecanal, ethyl acetate, acetoin, and ethanol may be potential predictors of astringency loss in fresh, whole 'Rama Forte' persimmons.

Evaluation of screw pull-out from plate fixation of en bloc distal radius resection with ulnar reconstruction: Finite element analysis and comparison with experiments on Thiel cadavers.

Fractures of the distal radius often require surgical intervention, with plate fixation being a standard stabilization method. Screw loosening and pull-out propose significant complications, necessitating comprehensive understanding of fixation stability factors. This study introduces a novel approach by the combination of finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental investigations on Thiel cadavers to evaluate screw pull-out behavior from plate fixation in en bloc distal radius resection with ulnar reconstruction.

Galectins are a family of β-galactosides-binding protein, crucial regulators of host-virus interactions. They achieve this by recognizing specific glycan patterns on viral surfaces or mediating interactions with intracellular viral or host proteins, subsequently influencing the critical phases of the viral life cycle, such as attachment, replication, immune evasion, and reactivation. Furthermore, galectins modulate host immune responses, shaping the progression and outcomes of viral infections.

In the third week of November 2024, a critical incident involving the refusal of a blood transfusion was reported at our hospital. The case involved a 65-year-old Indian patient who had been admitted for a proposed stoma closure surgery. Although the healthcare team deemed an urgent blood transfusion necessary as part of the patient's treatment plan, the transfusion was refused due to misinformation from the patient's attendants regarding the patient's original blood type.
