Article Synopsis
- * The study aims to evaluate a remotely delivered exercise program through a mobile app for improving physical function in older sepsis survivors, addressing challenges related to traditional rehabilitation.
- * The ongoing research will enroll 40 participants, randomly assigning them to either the exercise intervention or a control group, with both using a tablet-based health app for monitoring progress.
Background And Objectives: Transfusion safety may be becoming dependent on the financial resources made available for transfusion structures and may vary between high-income countries (HIC) and low-to-middle-income countries (LMIC). To assess whether there is a difference in the reported TR between these two groups of countries, we examined TR reported in Tunis the capital of Tunisia, a LMIC, and compared their frequency with reported TR in HIC.
Materials And Methods: Data of TR were collected from transfusion incident report (TIR) forms declared by healthcare facilities in Tunis between 2015 and 2019.
Article Synopsis
- - Neural progenitor cells extend their cell cycle to prepare for differentiation during development, but it's unclear how they manage this lengthening without getting stuck.
- - Researchers found that N-methyladenosine (mA) methylation of certain mRNAs helps ensure the timely progression of late-born retinal progenitor cells (RPCs), which have longer cell cycles.
- - The deletion of a key enzyme (Mettl14) essential for mA methylation caused delayed exit from the cell cycle in late-born RPCs, while mA sequencing uncovered that mA-targeted mRNAs linked to cell cycle elongation were degraded, facilitating proper cell cycle management.
Background: Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus (JEV) remains a leading cause of neurological infection across Asia. The high lethality of disease and absence of effective therapies mean that standardised animal models will be crucial in developing therapeutics. However, published mouse models are heterogeneous.

Fertilizers which are deemed as indispensable inputs for food, fodder, and fuel production now also represent the dark side of the intensive food production system. With most crop production systems focused on increasing the quantity of produce, indiscriminate use of fertilizers has created havoc for the environment and damaged the fiber of the biogeosphere.
