Paratyphoid B fever (PTB) is caused by an invasive lineage (phylogroup 1, PG1) of Salmonella enterica serotype Paratyphi B (SPB). However, little was known about the global population structure, geographic distribution, and evolution of this pathogen. Here, we report a whole-genome analysis of 568 historical and contemporary SPB PG1 isolates, obtained globally, between 1898 and 2021.

- Recent advancements in mechatronics have led to the development of advanced arm prostheses, but challenges remain in designing effective control schemes, particularly for those with higher levels of impairment.
- Current commercial options are limited in versatility and customization, pushing researchers to use specialized lab apparatus for testing new innovations.
- The Smart Arm platform was created as a customizable, multi-articulated robotic arm prosthesis that supports research on control and sensory feedback, demonstrating notable success in practical applications like the Cybathlon event.
Background: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is characterized by reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria, which play a pivotal role in both diagnosing and determining the disease's progression. This study aimed to assess the trajectory of these markers concerning age in individuals with DKD and identify predictive factors for the decline in eGFR decline, variation in albuminuria, mortality, and progression to renal replacement therapy (RRT).
Design: This retrospective cohort encompassed patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), divided into two age categories: <75 and ⩾75 years old.
In this study, we characterized 54 clinical isolates of collected in North Lebanon between 2009 and 2017 through phenotypic and genomic analyses. The most prevalent serogroup was accounting for 46.3 % (25/54) of the isolates, followed by (27.
