Background: In order to determine domains with the most difficulties and plan a relevant training, the aim of this study was to assess training needs of medical biology residents at the Ibn Rochd University Hospital of Casablanca, concerning antibiograms interpretation.
Methods: A descriptive and comparative study was carried out in February 2022, with two resident groups. The first one included all residents in training in the bacteriology-virology laboratory and having spent at least 2 months. The 2nd one included residents who had validated their course (9 months). Data were collected from collective interviews and a self-administered questionnaire with a qualitative and quantitative grid analysis.
Results: Residents expressed needs in the three learning domains (knowledge, know-how, interpersonal skills) but they were low to moderate (scores from 0.2/4 to 2.4/4). Priority topics for training were: interpretation of observed phenotypes (5.85/8), followed by interpretative reading according to EUCAST recommendations (5.05/8). The two groups' responses were similar, except for the know-how domain of natural resistance mechanisms where the needs were greater in G1 (p = 0.008).
Conclusions: In the light of these results, additional training with relevant aims should be planned.

In the past several years, a few cervical Pap smear datasets have been published for use in clinical training. However, most publicly available datasets consist of pre-segmented single cell images, contain on-image annotations that must be manually edited out, or are prepared using the conventional Pap smear method. Multicellular liquid Pap image datasets are a more accurate reflection of current cervical screening techniques.

The increased incidence of inflammatory diseases, infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders, and tumors in elderly individuals is closely associated with several well-established features of immunosenescence, including reduced B cell genesis and dampened immune responses. Recent studies have highlighted the critical role of dual receptor lymphocytes in tumors and autoimmune diseases. This study utilized shared data generated through scRNA-seq + scBCR-seq technology to investigate the presence of dual receptor-expressing B cells in the peritoneum of mouse and peripheral blood of healthy volunteers, and whether there are age-related differences in dual receptor B cell populations.

Reward cues have long been considered to enhance creative performance; however, little is known about whether rewards can affect creative problem solving by manipulating states of flexibility and persistence. This study sought to elucidate the differential impacts of real versus hypothetical rewards on the creative process utilizing the Chinese compound remote association task. Behavioral analysis revealed a significantly enhanced solution rate and response times in scenarios involving real rewards, in contrast to those observed with hypothetical rewards.

Background: Experimental and clinical studies have suggested that symbiotics might effectively manage type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by modulating the intestinal microbiota. However, these studies' limited sources, small sample sizes, and varied study designs have led to inconsistent outcomes regarding glycaemic control. This study aimed to investigate the effects of symbiotics on the anthropometric measures, glycaemic control, and lipid profiles of patients with T2DM.
