Identification, Characterization, and Epidemiological Analysis of Fish Isolates Obtained in a Period of Eighteen Years.

Lactococcosis caused by is a bacterial infection affecting fish with a considerable economic impact. Recently, has established itself as an opportunistic pathogen in humans. The aim of the current study was to test classical and molecular-biological methods for the identification of and examine antimicrobial susceptibility and capsule production, an important virulence factor.

Hit Selection of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors Bearing Thieno[2,3-d]Pyrimidine Scaffold.

The thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine fragment is in the structure of many drug-like candidate derivatives with a wide range of biological activities. However, very few dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors with this building block are currently known. Here, the selection of a novel DPP-4 inhibitor based on the thienopyrimidine scaffold is reported.

Platelet-rich plasma treatment for chronic wounds: A case report and literature review.

Background: Wound healing is a complicated process that can be heavily influenced by patient comorbidities, in some cases leading to a chronic non-healing wound. Evidence presented in the medical literature supporting the clinical use of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in treatment of such wounds is becoming increasingly compelling. Mechanisms involved include complex interactions between the patient's thrombocytes, cytokines, and growth factors.

Mental health and post-school transitions for young people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD): A scoping review.

Young people with an Intellectual and Developmental Disability (IDD) often face ineffective and exclusionary post-school transition practices, leading to poor mental health in early adulthood. This scoping review aimed to map existing literature on mental health for young people with IDD during the post-school transition period including how IDD and mental health are characterised in this context and the extent to which community members with lived experience are included in the design and/or production of research. In collaboration with a co-researcher, we used the JBI framework and PRISMA guidelines in accordance with a published protocol.

Genomic characterization of an uncommon Delftia acidovorans isolate obtained from a Bulgarian immunocompetent outpatient diagnosed with bronchitis.

Delftia acidovorans is an aerobic, non-fermenting Gram-negative bacterium (NFGNB), found in soil, water and hospital environments. It is rarely clinically significant, most commonly affecting hospitalized or immunocompromised patients. The present study aimed to explore the genomic characteristics of a Bulgarian clinical D.
