Amphotericin B Resistant spp.: Report of Two Cases.

spp. are ubiquitous, and people are frequently exposed to their spores in the environment and hospital settings. Despite frequent inhalation of the spores, infection is infrequent in humans, except in immunosuppressed hosts.

Ameliorative effects of Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi) on testicular tissue of rats exposed to bisphenol A.

Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disrupting chemical, is an environmental toxicant widely used in the production of polycarbonate plastics, epoxy resins and paints. Ganoderma lucidum (GDL) is a plant with biological activities widely used in Chinese medicine. The present study aims to determine the effects of GDL against testicular dysfunction in rats exposed to BPA.

The relationship between the hidden curriculum and fourth-year nursing students' career plans, professional values, and professional readiness: A cross-sectional correlational study.

Objectives: This cross-sectional correlational study investigated the relationship between a hidden curriculum and fourth-year nursing students' career plans, professional values, and professional readiness.

Background: The hidden nursing education curriculum can influence professional outcomes. While nursing curriculum is designed to prepare students to become proficient nurses, the hidden curriculum is linked to unintended learning outcomes.

Functional Group Effects on the Interfacial Adsorption of Arylquinoline-3-Carbonitriles on Iron: A DFT-D3 Investigation of Surface Interaction Mechanisms.

Reliable corrosion inhibition systems are crucial for extending the lifespan of industrial metal structures. Quinolines, with their high adsorption capacity and protective efficiency, are promising next-generation inhibitors. However, the impact of substitutions on their coordination with iron surfaces requires deeper understanding.

Apnea-hypopnea duration may be a better choice rather than apnea-hypopnea index for forecasting complications in OSAS.

Objective: Mean apnea-hypopnea duration (AHD) is the mean duration of apnea-hypopneas experienced during sleep and was found as an indicator of blood oxygenation. The aim of this study was to compare and define the differences in clinical, demographic and polysomnographic characteristics of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients in long and short AHD groups and investigate the relationship between apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and sleepiness.

Methods: The cross-sectional analysis included 511 OSA patients who were >18 years and followed up between June 2019 and December 2019 in the Sleep Center of university hospital.
