Diagnosis of extrapulmonary histoplasmosis in HIV seronegative and immunocompetent patients is often challenging, so a high index of suspicion is required. Cutaneous manifestation of infection shows a wide spectrum of lesions including erythematous plaques; maculopapules; crusted, verrucous, or desquamative papules and nodules; abscesses; and…[Read more]

The binding interactions of bioactive compounds with proteins are of great importance in the food, biochemistry and pharmaceutical fields. Herein, the binding mechanisms between 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA) and ovalbumin (OVA) were investigated by multi-spectroscopic studies combined with docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The…[Read more]

job satisfaction in NPs. Therefore, administrators work to promote organizational support and improve the work environment to enhance the job satisfaction, increase the clinical practice retention, and improve the care outcomes of NPs.

The results of this study highlight organizational support as the most important factor affecting job…[Read more]

Presenting a combination of sustainability and environmental friendliness, a new class of green and non-petroleum-based thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) was successfully developed from silica-filled silicone rubber (FSR) and poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) via dynamic vulcanization. The phase morphology, interfacial compatibilization, and…[Read more]

The curve tendency of the species-plot relationship indicates that R. norvegicus have a great potential to harbor many species of chigger mites, and more species of the mites would be collected if more rats are sampled.Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease and its actual prevalence among Pakistani blood donors is currently unknown. A cross…[Read more]

The potential strategy to prevent bacterial pathogenicity is disabling quorum sensing circuits with structural mimicking molecules. Here, we analyzed a synthetic molecule isoeugenol, for inhibition of quorum sensing regulated phenotype and biofilm formation. Isoeugenol was an effective inhibitor, i.e., more than 70% of virulence factors were…[Read more]

The formula that can be used to obtain the aldosterone level (pg/mL) when using CLEIA with the new reagent is 0.765 × RIA (pg/mL) – 33.7. This formula will enable PA cutoff values to be set for provisional screening and confirmatory tests.Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) has been recognized as a promising therapy against…[Read more]
