Increased virulence due to multiple infection in leads to limited growth in 1 of 2 co-infecting microsporidian parasites.

Recent outbreaks of various infectious diseases have highlighted the ever-present need to understand the drivers of the outbreak and spread of disease. Although much of the research investigating diseases focuses on single infections, natural systems are dominated by multiple infections. These infections may occur simultaneously, but are often acquired sequentially, which may alter the outcome of infection.

Predation of invasive silver carp by native largemouth bass is size-selective in the Illinois River.

Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) are a nonnative, planktivorous, and highly invasive species of cyprinid located throughout the Mississippi River Basin. Although they co-occur with largemouth bass (Micropterus nigricans), an abundant native predatory fish, their predator-prey relationship is poorly understood. This potential relationship warrants investigation as largemouth bass are large-gaped predators capable of exhibiting top-down control on planktivorous fishes.

Can co-created knowledge mobilisation interventions alter and enhance mindlines to improve childhood eczema care? A UK-based Social Impact Framework evaluation.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of using knowledge mobilisation interventions to alter and enhance mindlines and improve childhood eczema care.

Design: The eczema mindlines study involved three stages: (1) mapping and confirming eczema mindlines, (2) intervention development and delivery and (3) analysis of intervention impact. The focus of this paper is on stage 3.

How and how well have older people been engaged in healthcare intervention design, development or delivery using co-methodologies: A scoping review with narrative summary.

Co-methodological working is gaining increasing traction in healthcare, but studies with older people have been slower to develop. Our aim was to investigate how and how well older people have been engaged in healthcare intervention design, development or delivery using co-methodologies. We conducted a systematic search of four electronic databases to identify international literature published between 2009 and November 2019.

Price Transparency in Radiology-A Model for the Future.

Medicine is the only business transaction in which consumers make important purchase decisions without knowing how much they have to pay. Lack of price transparency in health care imposes financial burden and anxiety among patients as the cost of health care has been shifting from employers to patients through high-deductible health plans (HDHPs). Health economists and policymakers anticipated that HDHPs with price transparency would be a catalyst for patients to "shop" for low-price providers, thus reducing overall health care spending.
