Scientists develop first durable human lip cell models in the lab

We use our lips to talk, eat, drink, and breathe; they signal our emotions, health, and aesthetic beauty. It takes a complex structure to perform so many roles, so lip problems can be hard to repair effectively. Basic research is essential to improving these treatments, but until now, models using lip cells - which perform differently to other skin cells - have not been available.

Repeated fasting for multiple orthopedic surgeries linked to poor recovery outcomes

People who have multiple orthopedic surgeries during the same hospital stay are more likely to suffer malnutrition due to repeated or prolonged fasting, which can slow recovery and increase the risk of death, according to a study of more than 28 million patients presented at the ANESTHESIOLOGY 2024 annual meeting.
