Closed genomes of commercial inoculant rhizobia provide a blueprint for management of legume inoculation.

Unlabelled: Rhizobia are soil bacteria capable of establishing symbiosis within legume root nodules, where they reduce atmospheric N into ammonia and supply it to the plant for growth. Australian soils often lack rhizobia compatible with introduced agricultural legumes, so inoculation with exotic strains has become a common practice for over 50 years. While extensive research has assessed the N-fixing capabilities of these inoculants, their genomics, taxonomy, and core and accessory gene phylogeny are poorly characterized.

UK guidelines for the investigation and management of eosinophilia in returning travellers and migrants.

Eosinophilia is a common finding in returning travellers, migrants and other travelling groups. In this setting it often indicates an underlying helminth infection. Infections associated with eosinophilia are frequently either asymptomatic or associated with non-specific symptoms but some can cause severe disease.

Assessment of Antitachycardia Pacing in Primary Prevention Patients: The APPRAISE ATP Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: The emergence of novel programming guidelines that reduce premature and inappropriate therapies along with the availability of new implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) technologies lacking traditional endocardial antitachycardia pacing (ATP) capabilities requires the reevaluation of ATP as a first strategy in terminating fast ventricular tachycardias (VTs) in primary prevention ICD recipients.

Objective: To assess the role of ATP in terminating fast VTs in primary prevention ICD recipients with contemporary programming.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This global, prospective, double-blind, randomized clinical trial had an equivalence design with a relative margin of 35%.

Clinical Management of Hospitalized Patients With High-Consequence Infectious Diseases in England.

Infectious disease physicians in England have been diagnosing and managing occasional cases of viral hemorrhagic fever since 1971, including the United Kingdom's first case of Ebola virus disease in 1976. Specialist isolation facilities to provide safe and effective care have been present since that time. Following the emergence of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) in 2012, and the avian influenza A (H7N9) outbreak in 2013, and the 2014-2016 Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa, clinical and public health preparedness and response pathways in England have been strengthened for these types of diseases, now called high-consequence infectious diseases (HCIDs).

Perioperative Patient-Initiated Communication in Gender-Affirming Mastectomy.

: Gender-affirming mastectomy (GAM) improves the psychosocial functioning and quality of life of transgender and non-binary (TGNB) individuals. However, the perioperative period is often marked by emotional stress, concerns about surgical outcomes, and physical discomfort. While inpatient procedures provide multiple opportunities to engage with and educate patients, outpatient surgeries, such as GAM, pose a unique challenge as patients are followed for <24 h postoperatively.

Bedside physician led US-guided supra-clavicular lymph node biopsy and ROSE (rapid on-site evaluation): SVC obstruction swift management in lung cancer.

Superior vena cava obstruction (SVCO) is an oncological emergency and can often be linked to an underlying lung malignancy. Due to the potential life-threatening risks associated with SVCO, it necessitates urgent diagnosis and management. In this report, we discuss 3 case studies where the use of ultrasound-guided supraclavicular lymph node biopsy was used to obtain a biopsy from patients with SVCO, followed by rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE).

High-consequence infectious diseases: the conception and development of a multi-disciplinary, interprofessional simulation training programme.

Background: High-consequence infectious diseases (HCIDs) represent a group of acute infectious diseases with the potential to impact healthcare systems and public health profoundly. Effective management requires a system-based strategy focused on early detection, initiation of infection prevention and control measures, and appropriate use of personal protective equipment (PPE). Inadequate training in the safe use of HCID PPE, and lack of familiarity with key processes such as HCID waste and spills management, exacerbates the risk posed to healthcare workers (HCWs).

Case series of perianal and pelvic MRI imaging findings in monkeypox.

Monkeypox is a viral infection historically rarely seen in humans, but currently the focus of international attention due to a multi-country outbreak outside endemic countries of Central and West Africa, where cases are typically confined. Perianal pain and lesions have recently been recognised as a feature of monkeypox. We present a case series of the imaging findings of patients with monkeypox, including active proctitis, anal canal inflammation, and perianal inflammation.

Impact of Device Implant Depth After Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion.

Background: Device-related thrombus (DRT) remains one of the main concerns after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO). Several risk factors have been proposed, but most cannot be modulated. A modifiable factor such as device implantation depth is a potential target to adjust the risk for DRT.

The Canadian WATCHMAN Registry for Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Closure.

Background: Access to left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) in Canada is limited, due to funding restrictions. This work aimed to assess Canadian clinical practice on patient selection, postprocedural antithrombotic therapy, and safety and/or efficacy with WATCHMAN device implantation.

Methods: Seven Canadian centres implanting the WATCHMAN device participated in this prospective multicentre, observational registry.

Competition in the - symbiosis and the role of resident soil rhizobia in determining the outcomes of inoculation.

Background And Aims: Inoculation of legumes with effective N-fixing rhizobia is a common practice to improve farming profitability and sustainability. To succeed, inoculant rhizobia must overcome competition for nodulation by resident soil rhizobia that fix N ineffectively. In Kenya, where (common bean) is inoculated with highly effective CIAT899 from Colombia, response to inoculation is low, possibly due to competition from ineffective resident soil rhizobia.

Leucocyte-derived micro-RNAs as candidate biomarkers in Brugada syndrome.

Aims: Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death in patients with Brugada syndrome remains a major challenge. Contemporary risk prediction models have only modest predictive value. The aim of this study was to assess the role of micro-RNAs from peripheral blood as candidate biomarkers in Brugada syndrome.

The putative vacuolar processing enzyme gene TaVPE3cB is a candidate gene for wheat stem pith-thickness.

The vacuolar processing enzyme gene TaVPE3cB is identified as a candidate gene for a QTL of wheat pith-thickness on chromosome 3B by BSR-seq and differential expression analyses. The high pith-thickness (PT) of the wheat stem could greatly enhance stem mechanical strength, especially the basal internodes which support the heavier upper part, such as upper stems, leaves and spikes. A QTL for PT in wheat was previously discovered on 3BL in a double haploid population of 'Westonia' × 'Kauz'.

Current Progress and Future Prospect of Wheat Genetics Research towards an Enhanced Nitrogen Use Efficiency.

To improve the yield and quality of wheat is of great importance for food security worldwide. One of the most effective and significant approaches to achieve this goal is to enhance the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in wheat. In this review, a comprehensive understanding of the factors involved in the process of the wheat nitrogen uptake, assimilation and remobilization of nitrogen in wheat were introduced.

Physiological and cannabinoid responses of hemp () to rock phosphate dust under tropical conditions.

Growing a high-value crop such as industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) in post-mining environments is economically and environmentally attractive but faces a range of biotic and abiotic challenges. An opportunity to investigate the cultivation of C.
