The gastrointestinal tract is a unique ecological niche with a high abundance of various Enterobacterales in close proximity. This allows the exchange of mobile genetic elements that carry resistance determinants. In the hospital setting, resistant organisms are prevalent and selective antibiotic pressure is high, providing a supportive platform for interspecies dissemination of resistance.

Impaired pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) following COVID-19 has been consistently reported among individuals recovering from severe-critical infection. However, most long COVID cases follow non-severe COVID-19. We assessed DLCO among individuals with long COVID recovering from mild to moderate acute illness.

Article Synopsis
  • Defect engineering is essential for improving the performance of advanced devices, and ion beam irradiation is an effective method for creating controlled defects in materials.
  • This study focuses on how nitrogen ion irradiation affects the electrochemical properties of zinc oxide (ZnO) thin-film electrodes, revealing increased disorder and new defect states due to oxygen vacancies.
  • Results show that irradiated electrodes exhibit higher peak currents and lower charge transfer resistance, along with enhanced AC conductivity, which indicates improved performance for applications like batteries and supercapacitors.

Article Synopsis
  • A study conducted on Israeli neonatal herpes simplex virus (NHSV) infection collected data from 2015 to 2022, comparing clinical characteristics of NHSV patients with those suffering from neonatal enteroviral meningitis (NEM).
  • The results showed an NHSV incidence of 5.9 per 100,000 live births, with notable demographics suggesting that horizontal transmission was linked to practices like ritual circumcision.
  • NHSV patients presented unique symptoms such as a lower incidence of fever and irritability but showed a tendency for rashes and seizures, marking a distinct clinical profile compared to NEM, which can help guide treatment approaches for infected newborns.
