actor model was not. Negatively worded items did not perform well.

To provide effective end-of-life care education for health professions students, it is important to understand students' views of death in addition to their perceptions of educational needs and preferences. However, there is a lack of studies addressing interindividual variability in perceptions of end-of-life care educational needs among health professions students.

This study aimed to identify latent profiles of perceptions of end-of-life care educational needs among health professions students and examine whether the demographic characteristics, death-related events, death attitude, and death anxiety differed by need subgroup.

Through convenience sampling, health professions students from three universities in China were recruited between March 2020 and June 2020. Data were collected using a demographic information and death-related experience questionnaire, the End-of-Life Care Curriculum Needs Questionnaire, the End-of-Life Care Educational Needs Questionnaire, the Death Attitudes Profile-Revised, ciated with sex and death-related knowledge (P less then 0.05). Interindividual variability should be considered in the future development of end-of-care curricula.The current study utilized an artificial neural network (ANN) to generate computational models to achieve process optimization for a previously developed continuous liposome manufacturing system. The liposome formation was based on a continuous manufacturing system with a co-axial turbulent jet in a co-flow technology. The ethanol phase with lipids and aqueous phase resulted in liposomes of homogeneous sizes. The input features of the ANN included critical material attributes (CMAs) (e.g., hydrocarbon tail length, cholesterol percent, and buffer type) and critical process parameters (CPPs) (e.g., solvent temperature and flow rate), while the ANN outputs included critical quality attributes (CQAs) of liposomes (i.e., particle size and polydispersity index (PDI)). Two common ANN architectures, multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) models and multiple-input-single-output (MISO) models, were evaluated in this study, where the MISO outperformed MIMO with improved accuracy. Molecular descriptors, obtained from PaDEL-Descriptor software, were used to capture the physicochemical properties of the lipids and used in training of the ANN. The combination of CMAs, CPPs, and molecular descriptors as inputs to the MISO ANN model reduced the training and testing mean relative error. Additionally, a graphic user interface (GUI) was successfully developed to assist the end-user in performing interactive simulated risk analysis and visualizing model predictions.Carbamoylethyl pullulan-grafted palmitic acid (CP-g-PA), a novel self-assembled polymer was synthesized and examined for its efficacy in delivering the raloxifene (RA) to mammary carcinoma. The synthesized CP-g-PA was confirmed by evaluating through various spectral and morphological attributes. Further, the central composite design-response surface methodology with two factors at three levels was utilized to obtain the optimized and stable polymeric micelles. The optimized formulation was subjected to in vitro and in vivo evaluation. RA loaded polymeric micelles (RA-PMs) were spherical in shape with particle size less than 100 nm and high entrapment efficiency (77.02%). The developed formulation exhibited pH-dependent release profile of RA when loaded in polymeric micelles and provides substantial compatibility to erythrocytes. In vivo pharmacokinetic study demonstrates that RA-PMs offers higher mean residence time and volume of distribution as compared to pure RA. Besides, the biodistribution study manifested enhanced drug concentration in tumor and decreased concentration in other tissue as compared to pure drug. The treatment with RA-PMs also increases the median survival time, tumor inhibition rate and % increase in life span of the tumor bearing rats. Overall, the results pointed towards the overwhelming response of RA when loaded into micelles made from CP-g-PA.The anti-cancer therapeutic application of Galbanic acid (Gba) as a strong antiangiogenic sesquiterpene coumarin has been limited due to its low water solubility. This issue necessitates developing new liposomal formulations for the efficient delivery of Gba in vivo. In this study, various liposomal formulations were prepared by a thin-film hydration method, and Gba was incorporated into the liposomal bilayers, which consequently increased its release profile compared to formulations in our previous study prepared by remote loading methods. The most stable formulation with desired properties was selected and decorated with RGD peptide (cyclo [Arg-Gly-Asp-D-Tyr-Cys]) to target tumor vasculature actively. The fluorescently-labeled model liposomes showed that the targeting could improve the receptor-mediated endocytosis of the liposomes higher than those prepared in our previous study in vitro in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), which was confirmed by chicken chorioallantoic membrane angiogenesis (CAM) model in vivo. CDDO-Imidazolide Although not significant, it also could increase the accumulation of liposomes in colon tumors. In BALB/c mice bearing colon cancer, not only non-targeted Gba liposomes but also even RGD-targeted ones combinatorial therapy with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin could improve the anti-tumor efficacy as compared to their monotherapy. These outcomes have strong consequences for cancer therapy.Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small lipid bound structures released from cells containing bioactive cargoes. Both the type of cargo and amount loaded varies compared to that of the parent cell. The characterisation of EVs in cancers of the male urogenital tract has identified several cargoes with promising diagnostic and disease monitoring potential. EVs released by cancers of the male urogenital tract promote cell-to-cell communication, migration, cancer progression and manipulate the immune system promoting metastasis by evading the immune response. Their use as diagnostic biomarkers represents a new area of screening and disease detection, potentially reducing the need for invasive biopsies. Many validated EV cargoes have been found to have superior sensitivity and specificity than current diagnostic tools currently in use. The use of EVs to improve disease monitoring and develop novel therapeutics will enable clinicians to individualise patient management in the exciting era of personalised medicine.
