Twenty patients with maxillary sinusitis were treated with cefotetan (1 g, i.m.) twice a day. Samples of blood and maxillary sinus mucous membrane were taken in eight patients 2 h after dosing during the third day of therapy to evaluate drug concentration. Results show the excellent clinical and bacteriological effectiveness of cefotetan, as well as its high tissue penetration.

What are the training and support needs for homelessness hostel staff supporting older residents with memory and cognitive problems? A qualitative study.
BMC Health Serv Res
January 2025
Division of Psychiatry, University College London, London, England.
Background: An increasing number of older people are experiencing homelessness and memory problems, many of whom are supported in temporary hostel accommodation. This can be a challenge for hostel staff who may not have adequate training and support but who often support those with significant memory impairment in their day-to-day work. The study aimed to investigate the training and support that hostel staff require to meet the needs of older hostel residents experiencing memory and cognitive problems, and thus enhance hostel resident quality of life and well-being, considering what additional knowledge, skills, and support hostel staff need to achieve this.

Introduction: Predictors of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related rehospitalization remain underexplored. This study aims to identify the main risk factors associated with rehospitalizations due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) reinfections among residents of Lombardy, northern Italy.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted using two linked administrative databases covering demographic data, comorbidities, hospital records, and COVID-19 data of Lombardy residents.
The impact of major congenital anomalies on obstetric outcomes in the United Arab Emirates: the Mutaba'ah Study.

Major congenital anomalies (MCAs) are a public health concern. However, studies on obstetric outcomes in pregnancies complicated by MCAs are scarce, emphasizing the need for research to enhance management strategies. This study aimed to investigate the impact of MCAs on fetal presentation and delivery mode in the United Arab Emirates.

Targeted protein delivery with nanocarriers holds significant potential to enhance therapeutic outcomes by precisely directing proteins to specific organs or tissues. However, the complex interactions between nanocarriers and the biological environment pose considerable challenges in designing effective targeted delivery vehicles. In this study, we address this challenge by leveraging DNA-barcoded high-throughput screening.

Center for Electron Microscopy, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou, China.
Electron ptychography, recognized as an ideal technique for low-dose imaging, consistently achieves deep sub-angstrom resolution at electron doses of several thousand electrons per square angstrom (e/Å) or higher. Despite its proven efficacy, the application of electron ptychography at even lower doses-necessary for materials highly sensitive to electron beams-raises questions regarding its feasibility and the attainable resolution under such stringent conditions. Herein, we demonstrate the implementation of near-atomic-resolution ( ~ 2 Å) electron ptychography reconstruction at electron doses as low as ~100 e/Å, for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which are known for their extreme sensitivity.
