Impact of Health Education in Combination with Nutrition Support Nursing on the Nutritional Status and Quality of Life in Patients with Pulmonary Tuberculosis.

This study aimed to ascertain the effects of health education combined with nutrition support nursing on the nutritional status and quality of life of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. A clinical study was conducted. Sixty-four patients with tuberculosis were selected as the study participants and divided into control and observation groups ( = 32).

The evolution of infectious transmission promotes the persistence of plasmids.

Conjugative plasmids play a vital role in bacterial evolution and promote the spread of antibiotic resistance. They usually cause fitness costs that diminish the growth rates of the host bacteria. Compensatory mutations are known as an effective evolutionary solution to reduce the fitness cost and improve plasmid persistence.
