Monosomy of 18q12.3 has been reported in only 16 cases, in one as a mosaic with a normal cell line. Abnormal behaviour, developmental delay, normal measurements, and minor facial anomalies including ptosis, bilateral epicanthus, strabismus, short and slightly down-slanting palpebral fissures, and full cheeks are characteristic manifestations. We report on a 26-month-old girl with del(18)(q12.2q21.1) and typical phenotype. Microsatellite mediated haplotype analysis showed approximately 12 Mb deletion and demonstrated that the deletion was most likely formed during paternal meiosis by a rearrangement between the grandpaternal sister chromatids.

Cryptococcus neoformans, the most opportunistic fungal pathogen, causes cryptococcal meningitis. Based on molecular docking and ADME/toxicity analysis, the top two lead compounds selected from a screening of 5,807 phytochemical compounds from 29 medicinal plants were CID_8299 and CID_71346280, with docking scores of -5.786 and -6.

Electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) to highly value-added C2+ fuels or chemicals is a promising pathway to address environment issues and energy crisis. In the periodic table, Cu as only the candidate can convert CO2 to C2+ products such as C2H4 and C2H5OH due to the suitable absorption energy to reaction intermediate. Application of Cu is limited for its low activity and poor selectivity.

Importance: Paraesophageal hernias can cause severe limitations in quality of life and life-threatening complications. Even though minimally invasive paraesophageal hernia repair (MIS-PEHR) is safe and effective, anatomic recurrence rates remain notoriously high. Retrospective data suggest that suturing the stomach to the anterior abdominal wall after repair-an anterior gastropexy-may reduce recurrence, but this adjunct is currently not the standard of care.

The redox imbalance, caused by depletion or generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), is a key mechanism by which metal complexes exert anticancer effects. Carbidopa has shown the ability to inhibit the MDA-MB-231 cell line, a highly aggressive triple-negative human breast adenocarcinoma, by inducing reductive stress. The metal complex of carbidopa with zinc (ZnCarbi) was designed to modify carbidopa's structure and exhibited increased cytotoxicity against MDA-MB-231 cells.

Importance: Initiating effective therapy early is associated with improved survival among patients hospitalized with gram-negative bloodstream infections; furthermore, providing early phenotype-desirable antimicrobial therapy (PDAT; defined as receipt of a β-lactam antibiotic with the narrowest spectrum of activity to effectively treat the pathogen's phenotype) is crucial for antimicrobial stewardship. However, the timing of targeted therapy among patients hospitalized with gram-negative bloodstream infections is not well understood.
Objective: To compare the clinical outcomes between patients who were hospitalized with Enterobacterales bloodstream infections receiving early vs delayed PDAT.
