Knowledge, attitude, and practice of antifungal resistance and stewardship among pharmacy students in Zambia: a cross-sectional study to inform antifungal stewardship programs

Background Antifungal resistance (AFR) is a growing global health threat, particularly in low- and middle-income countries such as Zambia, where antifungals are often accessed without prescription. Antifungal stewardship (AFS) programs aim to optimise antifungal use, yet limited...

Tramadol Co‐Administration with Oxycodone or Hydrocodone Increases Opioid Burden without Improving Postoperative Pain Control

Tramadol is frequently co-prescribed with oxycodone or hydrocodone after surgery under the assumption that its dual mechanism of action provides an opioid-sparing benefit. However, evidence supporting this practice is limited and inconsistent. We conducted a secondary analysis of...

LPR-1-Mediated targeted intranasal delivery of lentinan-loaded polymeric nanocarriers for GBM therapy via modulation of apoptotic signalling

Aim To develop and evaluate a lactoferrin (Lf)-functionalized polyethylene glycol (PEG)-grafted chitosan (CS) nanocarriers (NCs) for low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP1)-mediated intranasal delivery of lentinan (LNT) to enhance brain targeting and anti-gliobl...
