() infection is a significant global health concern, affecting approximately 50% of the world's population and leading to gastric ulcers, gastritis, and gastric cancer. The increase in antibiotic resistance has compromised the efficacy of existing therapeutic regimens, necessitating novel approaches for effective eradication. This study aimed to develop a targeted liposomal drug delivery system incorporating furazolidone and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to enhance mucopenetration and improve eradication.

We aimed to address five questions about SARS-CoV-2 VOC infections in children and adolescents: (1) symptoms and severity, (2) risk factors for severe disease, (3) the risk of infection, (4) the risk of transmission and (5) long-term consequences following a VOC infection.
Design: Systematic review.
Background: Debate about the level of asymptomatic Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection continues. The amount of evidence is increasing and study designs have changed over time. We updated a living systematic review to address 3 questions: (1) Among people who become infected with SARS-CoV-2, what proportion does not experience symptoms at all during their infection? (2) What is the infectiousness of asymptomatic and presymptomatic, compared with symptomatic, SARS-CoV-2 infection? (3) What proportion of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in a population is accounted for by people who are asymptomatic or presymptomatic?
Methods And Findings: The protocol was first published on 1 April 2020 and last updated on 18 June 2021.
Background: The developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is regarded as one of the commonest congenital deformities. Its incidence has been estimated to be one in 60 live births according to some estimates. Different forms of treatment modalities have been suggested and their success depends on the age of the patient.
