Rickettsia sibirica mongolitimonae Infections in Spain and Case Review of the Literature.

Rickettsia sibirica mongolitimonae is an emerging cause of tickborne rickettsiosis. Since the bacterium was first documented as a human pathogen in 1996, a total of 69 patients with this infection have been reported in the literature. Because of the rising rate of R.

Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Effect of Positively Charged Nanosilver-Coated Silk Sutures.

Sutures are a crucial component of surgical procedures, serving to close and stabilize wound margins to promote healing. However, microbial contamination of sutures can increase the risk of surgical site infections (SSI) due to colonization by pathogens. This study aimed to tackle SSI by synthesizing positively charged silver nanoparticles (P-AgNPs) and using them to produce antimicrobial sutures.

[Overnight extubation is not associated with extubation failure in pediatric intensive care unit patients: a retrospective cohort study].

Unlabelled: There is little known about the time of the day and the nature of it (business day/non-business day) at which extubation is performed, and whether it is safe during the night.

Objective: to describe the frequency of nocturnal extubation (NE) and non-business day extubation (nBDE). In addition, to determine the association between these and clinical outcomes.

Beyond the effects of HIV infection and integrase inhibitors-based therapies on oral bacteriome.

Oral microbiome is the second largest microbial community in humans after gut. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection triggers an impairment of the immune system which could favour the growth and the colonization of pathogens in the oral cavity, and this dysbiosis has been associated with oral manifestations that worsen the quality of life of these patients. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) could also drive changes in specific oral bacterial taxa associated with such periodontal diseases.
