This research was carried out to assess the concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO) and formaldehyde (HCHO) in Edo State, Southern Nigeria, using remote sensing data. A secondary data collection method was used for the assessment, and the levels of CO and HCHO were extracted annually from Google Earth Engine using information from Sentinel-5-P satellite data (COPERNISCUS/S5P/NRTI/L3_) and processed using ArcMap, Google Earth Engine, and Microsoft Excel to determine the levels of CO and HCHO in the study area from 2018 to 2023. The geometry of the study location is highlighted, saved and run, and a raster imagery file of the study area is generated after the task has been completed with a 'projection and extent' in the Geographic Tagged Image File Format (.

The rheumatoid factor (RF) is a representative autoantibody against the crystallizable fragment (Fc) of denatured immunoglobulin (Ig) G that are primarily detected in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although five types of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors can be used to treat RA, no guidelines are available for selecting the appropriate inhibitor for treatment. High serum RF levels are associated with high disease activity, progressive joint destruction, life prognosis associated with organ damage, decreased treatment responsiveness to TNF inhibitors and other drugs, and low treatment retention rates.

Diseases affecting bone encompass a spectrum of disorders, from prevalent conditions such as osteoporosis and Paget's disease, collectively impacting millions, to rare genetic disorders including Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP). While several classes of drugs, such as bisphosphonates, synthetic hormones, and antibodies, are utilized in the treatment of bone diseases, their efficacy is often curtailed by issues of tolerability and high incidence of adverse effects. Developing therapeutic agents for bone diseases is hampered by the fact that numerous pathways regulating bone metabolism also perform pivotal functions in other organ systems.

Faculty of Medicine, Oita University, Yufu, JPN.
Background: Following COVID-19, dietary habits have been altered frequently along with other societal lifestyle modifications. However, changes in the dietary habits of maintenance hemodialysis patients (MHPs) before and during COVID-19 have not been investigated.
Methods: A total of 132 MHPs were assessed for changes in their dietary habits before and during the pandemic and their association with COVID-19 prevention.
Long-term impact of molecular epidemiology shifts of methicillin-resistant on severity and mortality of bloodstream infection.

A 2019 nationwide study in Japan revealed the predominant methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) types in bloodstream infections (BSIs) to be sequence type (ST)8-carrying SCC type IV (ST8-MRSA-IV) and clonal complex 1-carrying SCC type IV (CC1-MRSA-IV). However, detailed patient characteristics and how these MRSA types evolve over time remain largely unknown. In this long-term single-center study, MRSA strains isolated from blood cultures at Nagasaki University Hospital from 2012 to 2019 were sequenced and analyzed.
