Genital infections in high-risk human papillomavirus positive Paraguayan women aged 30-64 with and without cervical lesions.

Objective: To determine the prevalence of genital infections (GIs), including sexual transmitted STIs: Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Trichomonas vaginalis, and opportunistic pathogens that generally do not cause STIs, non-classic STI: Ureaplasma urealyticum, Ureaplasma parvum and Mycoplasma hominis, in women with high-risk oncogenic human papillomavirus (hr-HPV) infection and their association with cervical lesions.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out including 231 hr-HPV positive women. Of these, 46 has histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3 (CIN3) or more (including CIN3 and cervical cancer lesions-CIN3+).

Assessing the Partial Hessian Approximation in QM/MM-Based Vibrational Analysis.

The partial Hessian approximation is often used in vibrational analysis of quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) systems because calculating the full Hessian matrix is computationally impractical. This approach aligns with the core concept of QM/MM, which focuses on the QM subsystem. Thus, using the partial Hessian approximation implies that the main interest is in the local vibrational modes of the QM subsystem.

Topical Treatment Is Effective and Safe for Acute Ankle Sprains: The Multi-Center Double-Blind Randomized Placebo-Controlled TRAUMED Trial.

Background: Topical NSAIDs are widely used to treat ankle sprains. Traumed (Tr14) gel is a multicomponent formulation, demonstrating inflammation-resolution properties.

Methods: This multicenter, double-blind trial investigated the efficacy and safety of Tr14 gel versus placebo gel and non-inferiority versus 1% diclofenac gel, applied 3×/day for 7 days after acute lateral ankle sprain (EudraCT Number: 2016-004792-50).

The role of symmetric vibrational modes in the decoherence of correlation-driven charge migration.

Due to the electron correlation, the fast removal of an electron from a molecule may create a coherent superposition of cationic states and in this way initiate pure electronic dynamics in which the hole-charge left by the ionization migrates throughout the system on an ultrashort time scale. The coupling to the nuclear motion introduces a decoherence that eventually traps the charge, and crucial questions in the field of attochemistry include how long the electronic coherence lasts and which nuclear degrees of freedom are mostly responsible for the decoherence. Here, we report full-dimensional quantum calculations of the concerted electron-nuclear dynamics following outer-valence ionization of propynamide, which reveal that the pure electronic coherences last only 2-3 fs before being destroyed by the nuclear motion.
