Article Abstract
In order to elucidate the development of quality properties in the fat portion of Chinese bacon during low-temperature smoking (LTS), raw pork was cured for five days, followed by infusion with smoked liquid and a subsequent ten-day smoking period characterized by alternating high and low-temperature conditions. The physicochemical characteristics and microstructures of the fat portion of the Chinese bacon were examined at three stages: the raw meat stage (Control), the curing stage (C3d and C5d), and the smoking stage (S5d and S10d). The results showed that LTS increased the hardness, transparency, and b* value of bacon fat. The increased contents of neutral lipids and free fatty acids, increased activities of neutral lipase and lipoxygenase, and increased peroxide and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance value indicated significant lipolysis and lipid oxidation of bacon fat during LTS. After the treatment, a decreased melting point and increased β'- and β-type fat crystal formation were observed in the fat portion. Moreover, the treatment led to disruption of the adipocyte membrane structure. Therefore, the destruction of adipocytes after lipolysis and lipid oxidation during low-temperature smoking treatment might contribute to the development of quality properties of bacon fat portions. Precise control of temperature and time enhances the stability of the fat portion of bacon, thereby improving quality characteristics such as texture and appearance.

Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome: A Case Report.
Cureus
September 2025
General Surgery, Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston, USA.
Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome is a rare condition characterized by the narrowing of the space between the SMA and the aorta, resulting in the compression of the third portion of the duodenum. This syndrome has many names, including cast syndrome, arterio-mesenteric duodenal compression syndrome, and Wilkie syndrome. This is attributed to the loss of the intervening mesenteric fat pad, posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its nonspecific presentation.

Low-fat mozzarella cheese (LFMC) has started to increase in popularity among health-conscious consumers. Unfortunately, the inadequate meltability and rubbery texture of LFMC make it undesirable for many consumers.

Department of Radiology, Aarhus University Hospital, Aarhus, Denmark; Department of Clinical Medicine, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark.
Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the evolution of subchondral sacroiliac joint (SIJ) sclerosis from pregnancy to 12 months postpartum, and to explore preceding and concomitant magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features, potentially indicating osteitis condensans ilii (OCI).
Methods: One hundred three first-time mothers were recruited for serial SIJ MRIs. MRI scans were performed at pregnancy weeks 20 and 32, and at 3, 6, and 12 months postpartum.
Utilization of intravenous posaconazole in pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
Transplant Cell Ther
September 2025
Division of Pharmacy, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio.
Background: Pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) are at high risk for fungal infections including Candida, Aspergillus, and Mucorales necessitating the use of broad-spectrum antifungal agents such as posaconazole for prophylaxis and at times for treatment of invasive fungal infections. When first approved, posaconazole was limited to an immediate release oral suspension, which exhibited unreliable absorption dependent on co-administration with high fat meals. During HSCT, patients commonly have significant nausea, vomiting, and decreased enteral intake making this formulation particularly challenging.

ABSTRACTAims and Background: This article presents a comprehensive, anatomically precise approach to deep plane facelift surgery in male patients, a demographic with increasing interest in facial rejuvenation but historically underserved by techniques optimized for female anatomy. While foundational facelift principles are shared between genders, the male patient presents unique structural, vascular, and aesthetic demands that necessitate specific modifications to technique, planning, and execution. Anatomic Considerations: Key anatomical distinctions in the male face, including denser subcutaneous tissue, increased vascularity, prominent subplatysmal structures, and horizontally oriented SMAS-platysma continuity, require surgical planning that respects and preserves masculine facial definition.
