The present study aimed to identify self-care practices adopted by GPs amid the COVID-19 pandemic; and to explore the relationships between self-care practices and risk of distress.

Background: Evidence-based treatment recommendations are helpful in the corresponding discipline-specific treatment but can hardly take data from real-world care into account. In order to make better use of this in everyday clinical practice, including with respect to predictive statements about disease development or treatment success, models with data from treatment must be developed in order to use them for the development of assistive artificial intelligence.

Goal: The aim of the Use Case 1 of the medical informatics hub in Saxony (MiHUBx) is the development of a model based on treatment and research data for a treatment algorithm supported by biomarkers and also the development of the necessary digital infrastructure.

Antimicrobial resistance remains a global issue, hindering the control of bacterial infections. This study examined the antimicrobial properties of 2,3-N,N-diphenyl quinoxaline derivatives against Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and Mycobacterium species. Two quinoxaline derivatives (compounds 25 and 31) exhibited significant activity against most strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecium, and Enterococcus faecalis tested, with MIC values ranging from 0.

Providing health care is a balancing act among human resources, financial pressures and system-intrinsic factors. Understanding the utilization behaviour of primary and secondary care facilities [general practitioners (GPs) vs. specialists, as well as in- and outpatient hospital care] is crucial for a country like Austria, which has free access to all levels of care.
