Exactly solvable dual bus-route model.

In 1998, O'Loan et al. introduced a simplified bus-route model to illustrate bus dynamics. However, fluctuations in passenger numbers make it challenging to achieve an exact solution for the model's stationary state, as these fluctuations can impact bus behavior.

Awake prone positioning effectiveness in moderate to severe COVID-19 a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Awake prone positioning (APP) may be beneficial in patients with respiratory failure who are not receiving mechanical ventilation. Randomized controlled trials of APP have been performed during peak COVID-19 periods in unvaccinated populations, with limited data on compliance or patient acceptability. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and acceptability of APP in a lower-middle income country in an open-label randomized controlled trial using a dedicated APP implementation team and wearable continuous-monitoring devices.

Genotype II Live-Attenuated ASFV Vaccine Strains Unable to Completely Protect Pigs against the Emerging Recombinant ASFV Genotype I/II Strain in Vietnam.

: African swine fever virus (ASFV) continues to spread globally, causing severe economic losses to pig farmers. Vietnam licensed two live attenuated vaccines based on the ASFV strains ASFV-G-ΔI177L and ASFV-G-ΔMGF to control the ongoing ASF outbreaks. In 2023, newly emerging highly virulent recombinant ASF viruses (rASFV I/II) containing genetic elements from both p72 genotype I and II ASF viruses were reported from Northern Vietnam.

The Effects of Marine Fungal Asterripeptides A-C on In Vitro and In Vivo Skin Infection.

This study aimed to investigate the in vitro and in vivo antibacterial and cytoprotective activities of marine fungal tripeptide derivatives with cinnamic acid moiety asterripeptides A-C (-). The antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities of asterripeptides A-C were tested using the ATCC 21027 strain. Human HaCaT keratinocytes infected with were used for the in vitro investigation of the various aspects of the influence of asterripeptides A-C by lumino- and fluorospectrometry, ELISA, flow cytometry, Western blotting, and microscopy techniques.
