Influence of Preoperative Depression on Cervical Spine Surgery Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Study Design: Systematic review and Meta-analysis.

Objectives: To quantify the association of preoperative depression on patient reported outcome measures (PROMS) after cervical spine surgery.

Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Scopus, PsychInfo, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.

Outcomes of Reconstructive Surgery Using Vacuum-Assisted Closure in Patients With Complex Wounds.

This study aimed to assess the results of reconstructive surgery with vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy in patients with complex wounds. The sample included 60 patients with a mean age of 53.03 years.

Whole-genome evaluation and prophages characterization associated with genome of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii UOL-KIMZ-24-2.

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is an emerging threat to healthcare settings in many countries, principally in South Asia. The current study was aimed to identify, evaluate whole-genome and characterize the prophages in genome of CRAB strain, recovered from patients of Lahore General Hospital, Lahore. More than 200 samples were collected and identified by morphological and biochemical tests.

A breeding method for Ogura CMS restorer line independent of restorer source in .

The Ogura cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) line of has gained significant attention for its use in harnessing heterosis. It remains unaffected by temperature and environment and is thorough and stable. The Ogura cytoplasmic restorer line of is derived from the distant hybridization of and , but it carried a large number of radish fragments into , because there is no homologous allele of the restorer gene in , transferring it becomes challenging.

Analysis of the genome data of UOL-KIMZ-24, exhibiting multiple drug resistance through efflux pumps.

is a well-known opportunistic pathogen, responsible for various nosocomial infections. UOL-KIMZ-24 was previously isolated from a clinical specimen, collected from Lahore General Hospital, Lahore (LGH), Pakistan, dated 3rd March, 2022. During the initial screening for antimicrobial susceptibility, the UOL-KIMZ-24 was found a multiple drug resistant (MDR) strain.
