The Triad of COVID-19 in Children: Acute COVID-19, Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome, and Long COVID-Part II.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is now known to be caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, has been a public health threat since early 2020 and has affected millions of people worldwide. Many studies have now shown that this virus exhibits a milder infection in children compared to adults. Acute COVID-19 infection, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), and long COVID have been recently well-established in the pediatric population with a myriad of systemic manifestations.

Unveiling the fitness of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains for lignocellulosic bioethanol: a genomic exploration through fermentation stress tests.

Lignocellulosic biomass holds significant promise as a substrate for bioethanol production, yet the financial viability of lignocellulosic fermentation poses challenges. The pre-treatment step needed for lignocellulosic substrates generates inhibitors that impede Saccharomyces cerevisiae growth, affecting the fermentation process and overall yield. In modern sugarcane-to-ethanol plants, a rapid succession of yeast strains occurs, with dominant strains prevailing.

The Triad of COVID-19 in Children: Acute COVID-19, Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome, and Long COVID-Part I.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) originated in Wuhan, China, in late 2019. Within a span of a few months, it was deemed a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. It was first thought to affect the adult population, but soon after, cases of COVID-19 in children started emerging.

Integrated production of bioethanol and biomethane from rice waste using superior amylolytic recombinant yeast.

This study utilized a circular economy approach to convert unripe rice, a low-cost by-product of the rice milling industry, into biofuels using a biorefinery process. The recombinant yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae ER T12.7 strain was tested for its ability to produce ethanol from unripe rice.

Review of Quality Audit in a Radiation Oncology Department in a Tertiary Care Hospital- 2 Year-Results.

Objectives: This study aimed to report the findings of comprehensive weekly quality audit of radiotherapy procedures conducted at our institute, assessing various domains including clinical notes, contour delineation, treatment planning, prescription accuracy, patient-specific quality assurance, and treatment set-up checks.

Material And Methods: The audit protocol, based on the Peer Review Audit Tool (PRAT) from the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists, evaluated six critical parameters: clinical decisions, contours, treatment prescriptions, plan evaluation, plan quality assurance, and daily treatment set-ups. Patients were assessed for changes categorized as no change, minor change, or major change.
