Article Synopsis
  • The genome sequence of the CREC-9 strain (ST2083) was derived from a 69-year-old man's urine sample.
  • This strain contains genes that contribute to antimicrobial resistance against important drug classes like β-lactams, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and fluoroquinolones.
  • It also codes for various virulence factors, indicating its potential to cause infections.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a widespread, chronic, irreversible, and degenerative condition, and its early detection during the prodromal stage is of utmost importance. Typically, AD studies rely on single data modalities, such as MRI or PET, for making predictions. Nevertheless, combining metabolic and structural data can offer a comprehensive perspective on AD staging analysis.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease causing severe locomotor disability and deterioration in the quality of life. Existing treatments for RA mainly focus on the use of immunomodulators and the suppression of synovial inflammation, and many have significant side effects. Medicinal plants are regarded as important alternative sources for treating RA.
