Hyperglycemia in the hospital setting can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. Many factors can influence glucose levels including critical illness, supplemental feeding, and glucocorticoid administration. An understanding of glycemic treatment options for hospitalized patients is essential for good patient outcomes.

Notwithstanding the indefatigable endeavors to develop effective anti-mycobacterial therapies, mycobacterial infections still present a tough problem for medicine today. The problem is further complicated by the disquieting surge of drug-resistant mycobacterial pathogens, which considerably narrows the existing therapeutic options. Thus, there is a genuine need to discover novel anti-mycobacterial drugs.

Manipulating flexible and underactuated objects, such as a whip, remains a significant challenge in robotics. Remarkably, humans can skillfully manipulate such objects to achieve tasks, ranging from hitting distant targets to extinguishing a cigarette's in someone's mouth with the tip of a whip. This study explored this problem by constructing and modeling a 25-degree-of-freedom whip.

We consider a discrete-time Markovian random walk with resets on a connected undirected network. The resets, in which the walker is relocated to randomly chosen nodes, are governed by an independent discrete-time renewal process. Some nodes of the network are target nodes, and we focus on the statistics of first hitting of these nodes.

Purpose: Understanding the impact of vision impairment on dynamic tasks requiring visual processing is crucial for developing effective adaptive strategies that support individuals with vision impairment in optimizing their performance in natural tasks. This study aimed to establish the gaze patterns used by individuals with vision impairment when hitting a moving target.
Methods: Nineteen tennis players with vision impairment were recruited and their eye and head movements were tracked while they returned tennis serves.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-enclosed nanoparticles released outside the cell. EVs have drawn attention not only for their role in cell waste disposal, but also as additional tools for cell-to-cell communication. Their complex contents include not only lipids, but also proteins, nucleic acids (RNA, DNA), and metabolites.
