Reviewing the Rare Association Between Progestogen-only Implant and Pulmonary Embolism in a Woman with Multiple Cardiovascular Risk Factors: A Case Report.

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a recognized complication of hormonal contraceptive use, but the risk associated with progestogen-only implants in women with multiple cardiovascular (CV) risk factors remains uncertain. We present the case of a woman in her early forties with multiple CV risk factors, including obesity, obstructive sleep apnoea, and hypertension, who developed bilateral PE while using a progestogen-only implant. This case highlights the potential increased risk of PE in women with multiple CV risk factors using progestogen-only implants, warranting further investigation and cautious clinical decision-making.

Antimicrobial potential of Hippocratea Indica Willd. Acetone Leaf fractions against Salmonella Typhi: an in vitro and in silico study.

Salmonella Typhi is a major global concern in many low- and middle-income countries. In addition, the emergence and persistence of drug resistant strains has increased the impact of this disease. Plant metabolites have been explored traditionally and scientifically as antimicrobial agents.

Deep retrofitting toward net zero energy building in the Mediterranean region: A case study of Albania.

Like many other Mediterranean countries, Albania faces unique challenges and opportunities to achieve an efficient and fully decarbonized household sector by applying real energy efficiency measures and numbers toward nearly zero-energy buildings. The study findings showed that nZEB in 2030 can be achieved by combining active and passive energy efficiency measures. Behind the study's state-of-the-art stands a multivariable regression analysis of both electricity consumption and electricity generation executed for three validated consecutive years, 2021, 2022, and 2023, including demand side (electricity bills) and supply side generation provided from a nearby existing onsite PV with an installed capacity of 5.

Virulence is associated with daily rhythms in the within-host replication of the malaria parasite .

Most malaria ( spp.) parasite species undergo asexual replication synchronously within the red blood cells of their vertebrate host. Rhythmicity in this intraerythrocytic developmental cycle (IDC) enables parasites to maximise exploitation of the host and align transmission activities with the time of day that mosquito vectors blood feed.

Mechanism of antimalarial action and mitigation of infection-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction by phyto-constituents of Andrographis paniculata ((Burm f.) Wall. ex Nees) in Plasmodium berghei-infected mice.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Andrographis paniculata (AP) ((Burm f.) Wall. ex Nees) is a medicinal plant, documented for its folkloric use in the treatment of malaria.
