Nursing prioritization and rationing decisions in acute care hospitals during the Covid-19 pandemic: a qualitative study The Covid-19 pandemic has put decisions regarding prioritization and rationing of care resources on the health policy agenda. The effects on the allocation of nursing resources in clinical practice are unclear. In order to derive implications for future pandemic situations, we analyzed the extent to which decisions were made about the distribution of resources in acute inpatient care and how bottlenecks were dealt with.

Genomic modifications for enhanced antibiotic production in rifamycin derivative-producing S699 strains: focusing on and genes.

Rifamycin and its derivatives are natural products that belong to the class of antibiotic-active polyketides and have significant therapeutic relevance within the therapy scheme of tuberculosis, a worldwide infectious disease caused by . Improving the oral bioavailability of rifamycin B was achieved through semisynthetic modifications, leading to clinically effective derivatives such as rifampicin. Genetic manipulation of the rifamycin polyketide synthase gene cluster responsible for the production of rifamycin B in the strain S699 represents a promising tool to generate new rifamycins.

Increase of nitrous oxide-induced neurological disorders - a German multicenter experience.

Background: Nitrous oxide (N₂O), commonly known as laughing gas, is widely recognized for its anesthetic and analgesic effects, and is frequently used in medical contexts. However, its misuse can lead to significant neurological complications, which are often under-recognized in clinical practice. Recent data on such cases in Germany are rare.

Room-temperature phosphorescence and static excimer excitation of pyrene-modified () pincer bismuth complexes.

We present the synthesis, characterization, and photophysical properties of two pyrene-modified () pincer bismuth complexes, where the pyrenyl residues are either part of the cyclometalating pincer ligand (1) or bound as monodentate ligands to the Bi ion (2). Both complexes are dually emissive at 77 K. For complex 2, pyrenyl phosphorescence persists at r.

Technical Advances Drive the Molecular Understanding of Effectors from Wheat and Barley Powdery Mildew Fungi.

Pathogens manipulate host physiology through the secretion of virulence factors (effectors) to invade and proliferate on the host. The molecular functions of effectors inside plant hosts have been of interest in the field of molecular plant-microbe interactions. Obligate biotrophic pathogens, such as rusts and powdery mildews, cannot proliferate outside of plant hosts.
