Article Abstract
This article comments on the article by Du , who conducted a randomized controlled trial aiming at evaluating the effectiveness of a novel spray flushing system in cleaning flexible endoscopes while minimizing damage to the working channels. We share our perspective on the importance of improving endoscope reprocessing methods. The findings highlight the spray flushing system's capacity to improve cleaning efficacy while minimizing damage, suggesting that it might be important in enhancing endoscope reprocessing procedures.

There is inadequate evidence-based literature for clinicians supporting the role of adjuvant rehabilitation options in cases of bone deficient pathologies, and fractures. A literature search was done from e-resources such as DELNET, J-gate, Scopus, Web of Science, EBSCO & PubMed from 18 May 2000 to 28 August 2024. The search was performed through the student's corner at our university with keywords such as bone density, calcitonin, calcitonin nasal spray, fractures, and pathology.

Background: Toilet flushing has been reported to result in pathogen contamination of restroom fomites and air. The goal of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of an air sanitizing spray on reducing cross-contamination of restroom fomites and air after toilet flushing.
Methods: Bacteriophage MS2 was added to toilet bowl water, then flushed, and cross-contamination of restroom fomites and air was determined.

The advancement in endoscopic technology and techniques has increased its use in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases. Reprocessing of reusable endoscopes remains a challenge. Inadequate reprocessing leads to bacterial contamination of the endoscope, a significant cause of endoscope-related infections.

The prevalence of apple Valsa canker (AVC) poses a significant threat to the vitality of apple trees, jeopardizing the progress of the apple industry. Current strategies have proven inadequate in managing the disease effectively due to challenges such as extended duration and frequent relapses, especially low-adhesion vertical target. Herein, we introduce a pesticide-fertilizer synergistic alginate-based hydrogel (P&F-Gel) to enhance long-term pesticide retention and offer nutrient supplementation without labor-intensive practices.
