Clostridioides difficile infections are difficult and serious problem occurring in patients staying in intensive care units. In recent years, the number and severity of these infections, as well as the mortality rate, have been increasing, posing a serious epidemiological problem. This is caused, among other factors, by stressors, artificial nutrition, and sepsis, which lead to disturbances in the patients' microbiome.

Die-forging structural parts are widely used in the main load-bearing components of aircrafts because of their excellent mechanical properties and fatigue resistance. However, the forming and heat treatment processes of die-forging structural parts are complex, leading to high levels of internal stress and a complex distribution of residual stress fields (RSFs), which affect the deformation, fatigue life, and failure of structural parts throughout their lifecycles. Hence, the global RSF can provide the basis for process control.

Background: Critically ill patients who develop invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) have high mortality rates despite antifungal therapy. Diagnosis is difficult in these patients and incidences vary in the literature. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid galactomannan (GM) is a helpful marker, although the optimal cutoff is unclear.
