Objectives: to compare the sociodemographic and clinical severity indicators of hospitalized people with HIV in relation to clinical outcomes and urgent hospital admission.
Methods: a retrospective cohort study was conducted with 102 medical records of HIV-infected individuals hospitalized in a hospital in southern Brazil. In addition to descriptive analysis, Fisher's exact test, Pearson's Chi-square, and logistic regression were used.

Background: Surveillance cultures to identify patients colonized with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is recommended at pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission but doesn't capture other methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus and is resource intensive. We determined the prevalence and identified nasal microbiome predictors for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus colonization at the time of PICU admission.
Study Design: A prospective cohort study was performed in a 20-bed pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) between 2020-2021.

The advancement of small ruminant farming in Benin has encountered challenges associated with health issues and agricultural practices. This study aimed to provide the initial documentation of the prevalence of enzootic ovine abortion and evaluate the health status of animals concerning various recurring diseases on traditional small ruminant farms in Benin. In 2023, a semi-structured survey of 450 farms was carried out in two agricultural development centers in Benin.

Sperm activation occurring in both male and female reproductive tract involves a highly complex series of biomolecular dynamics, particularly on membrane lipids and proteins. In mammals, the universal anticipation in cholesterol (CHO) sequestration plays a role in mammalian sperm maturation/capacitation, subsequently enhancing sperm fertilizing ability. In shrimp, we have previously shown that the level of cholesterol (CHO) is significantly reduced in vas deferens sperm when compared with sperm in the testes, presumably due to the sequestering action of the lipid-binding protein, one of which is Niemann-Pick Type C-2 (NPC2).
