Precision symptom phenotyping identifies early clinical and proteomic predictors of distinct COVID-19 sequelae.

Background: Post-COVID conditions (PCC) are difficult to characterize, diagnose, predict, and treat due to overlapping symptoms and poorly understood pathology. Identifying inflammatory profiles may improve clinical prognostication and trial endpoints.

Methods: 1,988 SARS-CoV-2 positive U.

Capturing and managing genetic diversity in ex situ collections of threatened tropical trees: A case study in .

Premise: Although ex situ collections of threatened plants are most useful when they contain maximal genetic variation, the conservation and maintenance of genetic diversity in collections are often poorly known. We present a case study using population genomic analyses of an ex situ collection of , a critically endangered tropical tree from Tanzania. Only ~43 individuals are known in two wild populations, and ex situ collections containing 34 individuals were established in two sites from wild-collected seed.

Six Extensively Drug-Resistant Bacteria in an Injured Soldier, Ukraine.

Blood and surveillance cultures from an injured service member from Ukraine grew Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecium, and 3 distinct Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. Isolates were nonsusceptible to most antibiotics and carried an array of antibiotic resistant genes, including carbapenemases (bla, bla, bla, bla, bla) and 16S methyltransferases (armA and rmtB4).

Comparing downstream consequences of normal exercise stress echocardiograms and cardiac computed tomography angiography scans in patients suspected of having of obstructive coronary artery disease: a retrospective cohort study of Tricare beneficiaries.

To compare overall number of downstream tests and total costs between negative exercise stress echocardiograms (ESE) or cardiac computed tomography angiography scans (CCTA) in symptomatic Tricare beneficiaries suspected of having coronary artery disease (CAD). This is a retrospective cohort study examining 651 propensity-matched patients who underwent ESE or CCTA with normal results between 2008 and 2014 at the United States' largest Department of Defense hospital. The total number of additional downstream tests over the next five years was determined.

Questioning triple rice intensification on the Vietnamese mekong delta floodplains: An environmental and economic analysis of current land-use trends and alternatives.

Large areas of the Vietnamese Mekong Delta floodplains (VMDF) are protected by high dikes to facilitate three rice crops per year. While this has increased rice production, there is evidence that triple rice systems have negative long-term effects, both environmental and economic. Double rice cropping, or other alternatives, may be more advantageous.
