Background: Cost-related nonadherence (CRN) to prescription medication has been shown to affect healthcare outcomes. While CRN has been reported in many countries globally, it has not been fully characterized in Vietnam.

Objectives: This study was conducted to determine CRN rates and factors associated with CRN among pharmacy customers in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam.

Significance Statement: Kidney-derived thrombopoietin (TPO) increases myeloid cell and platelet production during antibody-mediated chronic kidney disease (AMCKD) in a mouse model, exacerbating chronic thromobinflammation in microvessels. The effect is mirrored in patients with extracapillary glomerulonephritis associated with thromboinflammation, TGF β -dependent glomerulosclerosis, and increased bioavailability of TPO. Neutralization of TPO in mice normalized hematopoiesis, reduced chronic thromboinflammation, and ameliorated renal disease.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on finding a biocontrol agent to combat fungal diseases as synthetic fungicides have negatively affected humans and crops.
  • The newly isolated bacterium 7WMA2, identified as Brevibacillus halotolerans, shows effectiveness against various pathogenic fungi, including Candida and Fusarium species.
  • Genome analysis of strain 7WMA2 reveals 23 gene clusters for producing antifungal compounds that are stable and effective across a wide pH range, supporting its potential use in biological control of fungal infections.

The present study investigated the internal consistency reliability, construct validity, and item response characteristics of a newly developed Vietnamese version of the Kessler 6 (K6) scale among hospital nurses in Hanoi, Vietnam. The K6 was translated into the Vietnamese language following a standard procedure. A survey was conducted of nurses in a large general hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam, using a questionnaire including the Vietnamese K6, other scales (DASS21, health-related QOL, self-rated health, and psychosocial work environment), and questions about demographic variables.

Our study recorded the presence of on carrot in Hanoi city and Hai Duong province in Vietnam. This species was identified by morphometric, morphological characterizations, and molecular characterization of D2D3 of 28S rDNA sequence. To our knowledge, this is the first report of on carrot in Vietnam.
