A universal dimer is subject to secondary collisions with atoms when formed in a cloud of ultracold atoms via three-body recombination. We show that in a collisionally opaque medium, the value of the scattering length that results in the maximum number of secondary collisions may not correspond to the Efimov resonance at the atom-dimer threshold and thus cannot be automatically associated with it. This result explains a number of controversies in recent experimental results on universal three-body states and supports the emerging evidence for the significant finite range corrections to the first excited Efimov energy level.

Breaking the guidelines: how financial unawareness fuels guideline deviations and inefficient DVT diagnostics.
Diagnosis (Berl)
January 2025
Department of Laboratory Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Debrecen, Debrecen, Hungary.
Objectives: To examine factors impacting diagnostic evaluation of suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT) by analyzing the test ordering patterns and provider decision-making within a universal health coverage system in Hungary.
Methods: We analyzed test orders for suspected DVT between 2007 and 2020, and the financial framework influencing diagnostic practices. An anonymous survey was also conducted among Emergency Department physicians to explore factors influencing diagnostic decision-making.
Structure-function analysis of tRNA tA-catalysis, assembly, and thermostability of Aquifex aeolicus TsaDB tetramer in complex with TsaE.

Article Synopsis
- The modification of tRNA at position 37 (tA) is crucial for ensuring accurate protein synthesis and is produced through the actions of specific enzymes (TsaC, TsaD, TsaB, and TsaE) using L-threonine and ATP in bacteria.
- This study reconstituted the biosynthesis of tA from the bacterium Aquifex aeolicus and examined the structural characteristics of the TsaDB enzyme complex, finding that it can bind both TsaE and tRNA, with the binding being influenced by specific protein sequences.
- The research showed that TsaE enhances the catalytic action of TsaDB, leading to the release of tRNA
Association of COVID-19 with acute and post-acute risk of multiple different complications and mortality in patients infected with omicron variant stratified by initial disease severity: a cohort study in Hong Kong.

Centre for Safe Medication Practice and Research, Department of Pharmacology and Pharmacy, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, L02-57 2/F, Laboratory Block, 21 Sassoon Road, Pokfulam, Hong Kong, SAR, China.
Article Synopsis
- This study analyzed COVID-19 patients from a Hong Kong health database to differentiate severe and non-severe cases, focusing on age-specific outcomes and clinical parameters.* -
- Researchers categorized patients into age groups (≤ 40, 41-64, and ≥ 65 years) and further stratified them based on their COVID-19 exposure severity, which included critically, severely, mildly-moderately exposed, and unexposed groups.* -
- The findings revealed that as COVID-19 severity increased, so did the risks for various health issues, particularly in older adults, highlighting the importance of age in disease outcome assessments.*

The COVID-19 pandemic has emerged as a major global health crisis. Vitamin D, a crucial fat-soluble vitamin, has been recommended for COVID-19 patients, though evidence of its effectiveness is inconsistent. This systematic literature review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of vitamin D supplementation on COVID-19-related outcomes.
