Introduction: Multidrug resistance (MDR) has been identified in wound bacterial isolates from Ukrainian war victims treated in Ukraine and across Europe. ILP100, a drug candidate for the treatment of skin wounds, is composed of a Limosilactobacillus reuteri expressing human chemokine CXCL12. In this study, the antimicrobial effects of ILP100 were tested on MDR bacteria isolated from wounds of Ukra

Weakly coupled relaxors based on compositions (1-x) BaTiO 3 -xBiMeO 3 , where Me is a metal ion, have attracted attention as potential candidates for high-temperature high-energy density capacitors. However, the necessary Bi content is typically high with x = 0.3-0.4. In order to reduce problems associated with compatibility for base metal electrodes and due to additional problems due to Bi vol

Introduction: For fast and effective antibiotic therapy of serious infections like sepsis, it is crucial with rapid information about antibiotic susceptibility, especially in a time when the number of infections caused by multi resistant bacteria has escalated in the world. Methods: Here, we have used a semi-quantitative MALDI-TOF-MS based method for antibiotic resistance detection, MBT-ASTRA™, wh

This thesis addresses how verbal comprehension is affected by seeing the speaker and in particular when the speaker is an animated virtual speaker. Two people visually co-present – one talking and the other listening, trying to comprehend what is said – is a central and critical scenario whether one is interested in human cognition, communication or learning. Papers I & II are focused on the e

The introduction of a mollecular method to identify the Entoviruses based on the amplification sequecing and phylogenetic analysis of protein VPI was described. It was proved that this method reduces significantly the time required for the identification of the isolated Entoviruses and that it is very useful in the characterization of isolates which are difficult to typify by the routine immunoloi

We have experimented with a bio-inspired selforganizingtexture and hardness perception system whichautomatically learns to associate the representations of the twosubmodalities with each other. To this end we have developeda microphone based texture sensor and a hardness sensor that measures the compression of the material at a constant pressure. The system is based on a novel variant of the Self-

INTRODUCTION: 360-degree evaluations are used as an assessment in order to identify strengths and weaknesses of, or as a continuous evaluation for, residents. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between personality and ratings on 360-degree evaluations among surgical residency applicants. A secondary aim was to describe the personality profile of applicants for a surgical res

BACKGROUND: Group 5 allergens, such as Phl p 5 of timothy grass, are major contributors to grass pollen allergy. Antibody 212597 specific for this allergen was recently isolated by single cell sequencing of bone marrow B cells of a grass pollen-allergic subject. This antibody, although subjected only to a low level of hypermutation resulting in six amino acid substitution across the heavy and ligh

Haro 11 is a metal-poor, starburst galaxy believed to be the result of an ongoing merger, which is shaping the properties of the galaxy. In this study, we carry out a large suite of numerical simulations of a merger between two disc galaxies, to study possible origins of Haro 11 and understand under which conditions various features of the galaxy are formed. By varying galaxy parameters describing

The European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) have collaborated to produce these post-resuscitation care guidelines for adults, which are based on the International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Science with Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR) pubished by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR). The topics cover

Inflammatory responses to acute stimuli are proposed to regulate sleep, but the relationship between chronic inflammation and habitual sleep duration is elusive. Here, we study this relation using genetically predicted level of chronic inflammation, indexed by CRP and IL6 signaling, and self-reported sleep duration. By Mendelian randomization analysis, we show that elevated CRP level within <10 mg

The Haro 11 galaxy merger is the closest known Lyman continuum (LyC) leaker and a strong Lyman-α (Lyα) emitter, making it an important analogue of the high-z galaxies that reionised the early Universe. To investigate how Haro 11’s properties arise, we perform a radiation hydrodynamics simulation of the merger, and create mock observations of LyC, Lyα, and Hα, from which we compute their luminositi

This chapter explores the intricate dynamics of transnational Shia networks and their relationship with Iran, focusing on the latter's aspiration to dominate global Shiism and the resistance it faces. It analyzes the transnational character of Shia clerical networks, which have been pivotal in political and communal mobilization since the 1950s, particularly in Iraq. Post-1979, Iran leveraged thes

The European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) have collaborated to produce these post-resuscitation care guidelines for adults, which are based on the 2020 International Consensus on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Science with Treatment Recommendations. The topics covered include the post-cardiac arrest syndrome, diagnosis of cause of cardiac a

Bikunin is a Kunitz-type proteinase inhibitor, which is cross-linked to heavy chains via a chondroitin sulfate chain, forming inter-alpha-inhibitor and related molecules. Rat bikunin was produced by baculovirus-infected insect cells. The protein could be purified with a total yield of 20 mg/liter medium. Unlike naturally occuring bikunin the recombinant protein had no galactosaminoglycan chain. En

Selective infection of phage is when the bacterial infection depends on the specific molecular interaction between an antigen and a phage-displayed protein sequence such as an antibody. Engineering of the normal infection into pathways, directed by a specific protein--protein interaction, has raised several mechanistic questions. Here, we address the type of display and the affinity between the in
