A 5-year surveillance of healthcare-associated infections in a university hospital: A retrospective analysis.

Objectives: "Nosocomial infections" or "healthcare-associated infections" are a significant public health problem around the world. This study aimed to assess the rate of laboratory-confirmed healthcare-associated infections, frequency of nosocomial pathogens, and the antimicrobial resistance patterns of bacterial isolates in a University Hospital.

Methods: A retrospective evaluation of healthcare-associated infections in a University Hospital, between the years 2015 and 2019 in Tekirdag, Turkey.

Demonstration and evaluation of a digital twin-based virtual factory.

Smart manufacturing, tailored by the 4th industrial revolution and forces like innovation, competition, and changing demands, lies behind the concurrent evolution (also known as co-evolution) of products, processes and production systems. Manufacturing companies need to adapt to ever-changing environments by simultaneously reforming and regenerating their product, process, and system models as well as goals and strategies to stay competitive. However, the ever-increasing complexity and ever-shortening lifecycles of product, process and system domains challenge manufacturing organization's conventional approaches to analysing and formalizing models and processes as well as management, maintenance and simulation of product and system life cycles.

Sporopollenin for High-Performance Supercapacitor Electrode Design.

Recently, plant pollen has been used as a source of activated carbon to produce carbon-containing supercapacitor electrodes. However, in this study, pollen was used as a biotemplate with a completely different approach. As a biotemplate, pollen offers a wide range of varieties in terms of exterior, porosity, shape, and size.

[Evaluation of the BD Phoenix100 System and Colistin Broth Disk Elution Method for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Colistin Against Gram-negative Bacteria].

Infections with multidrug resistant gram-negative bacteria is a growing problem especially in health care settings. Colistin is one of the last resort antibiotics for such infections in which treatment options are limited. Increasing resistance to colistin is a global problem.
