The major aquatic interface between host and environment in teleost finfish species is the gill. The diversity of this infraclass, high complexity of the organ, and its direct exposure to the surrounding environment make it an ideal candidate for furthering our understanding of the intertwined relationships between host and microbiome. Capturing th...

We report the case of a patient who underwent endovascular retrieval of a conical inferior vena cava (IVC) filter with a ruptured retraction hook that was attached to the IVC wall. A 21-year-old woman with a Celect (Cook) filter, implanted 1,522 days prior, requested retrieval. Preoperative ultrasound and CT examinations showed that the filter was ...

This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of wayfinding information (destination reference images) in real-time complex environmental settings through the syntheses of mobile and static information sources. This investigation will help in improving the wayfinding information design for complex institutional environments which will enhance...

Cancer and bacterial infection are the most serious problems threatening people's lives worldwide. However, the overuse of antibiotics as antibacterial and anticancer treatments can cause side effects and lead to drug-resistant bacteria. Therefore, developing natural materials with excellent antibacterial and anticancer activity is of great importa...

Melatonin exerts its effects through a series of target proteins/receptors and enzymes. Its antioxidant capacity might be due to its capacity to inhibit a quinone reductase (NQO2) at high concentration (50 µM). Demonstrating the existence of a complex between a compound and a protein is often not easy. It requires either that the compound is an inh...

Developing a new drug delivery system is one of the useful approaches to overcome the limited use of berberine (BBR) to enhance its absorption and bioavailability. We prepared a novel berberine–glycyrrhizic acid (BBR–GL) complex formulation to increase the plasma concentration and bioavailability of BBR by improving BBR solubility and lowering the ...

Revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) is associated with an increased dislocation risk. Dual-mobility (DM) bearings have been used to address this issue. Such constructs offer increased range of motion and enhanced stability whilst avoiding some issues associated with fully-constrained devices. DM bearings have been used in our unit since 2013. Al...

Acacia saligna is an invasive alien species that has the ability to establish symbiotic relationships with rhizobia. In the present study, genotypic and symbiotic diversity of native rhizobia associated with A. saligna in Tunisia were studied. A total of 100 bacterial strains were selected and three different ribotypes were identified based on rrs ...

Human noroviruses (huNoVs) cause epidemic acute gastroenteritis using histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) as host receptors or attachment factors to initiate an infection. While most huNoVs have been shown to bind HBGAs, some known clinical isolates, such as GI.3 DSV and VA115, do not recognize any HBGAs and thus the molecular mechanism behind their...
