Background: The diagnosis of acute myocarditis is complex, with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) being a recommended diagnostic method. This study aimed to evaluate the real-life use of CMR in the diagnosis of acute myocarditis and to correlate CMR results with the degree of myocardial damage.
Methods: This is a retrospective, observational tertiary single-center study of 90 consecutive patients (F/M:18/72, mean age:39 ± 14 years) hospitalized between 2015-2022 with a clinical diagnosis of acute myocarditis.
Strategies for managing corn crop residue in the context of greenhouse gas emissions.
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int
October 2024
Food production is one of the most important sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, both in primary production and in processing and the logistics chain. The most problematic and risky is the optimization of environmental effects in the stage of primary production. This is due to the significant influence of factors related to climate and soil that are difficult to predict.

- The fungus and Gram-positive bacterium coexist in human mucosal areas and can become harmful when there's an imbalance in microbial populations, leading to serious infections in vulnerable individuals.
- The study reveals that the presence of the bacterium increases damage to host cells caused by the fungus, and this relationship worsens oropharyngeal candidiasis in mice.
- This increased damage is driven by enterococcal cytolysin and is influenced by physical interactions between the bacteria and host cells, as well as changes in glucose availability due to the fungus's metabolic activity.
New results are presented on a high-statistics measurement of Collins and Sivers asymmetries of charged hadrons produced in deep inelastic scattering of muons on a transversely polarized ^{6}LiD target. The data were taken in 2022 with the COMPASS spectrometer using the 160 GeV muon beam at CERN, statistically balancing the existing data on transversely polarized proton targets. The first results from about two-thirds of the new data have total uncertainties smaller by up to a factor of three compared to the previous deuteron measurements.
