We investigated the molecular epidemiology of 21 carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates from Libya and assessed their relative fitness. Core genome multilocus sequence typing (MLST) revealed five interhospital transmission clusters. Three clusters were associated with the international clones (IC) IC1, IC2, and IC7.…[Read more]

The mean ± standard deviation of population exposures to PM2.5 was 21.3 ± 4.0 μg/m3 in summer, 9.8 ± 2.7 μg/m3 in autumn, and 29.9 ± 10.6 μg/m3 in winter. Exposure to PM2.5 higher than 35 μg/m3 mainly occurred in winter. Gender, age, working hours, and health condition were identified as significant determinants in the exposure groups. An “unheal…[Read more]

Both high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and resistance exercises (R) are used in cardiac rehabilitation in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the combined effect of an HIIT+ R exercise program in older adults with CAD is not well investigated. The study’s purpose was to assess the changes in anthropometric parameters,…[Read more]

herefore, all women with abnormal fetal ultrasound must undergo CMA test for genotype-phenotype correlation. CMA detects known and rare deletion/duplication syndromes and characterizes marker chromosomes. Accumulation of CNV data will form an Indian Repository and also help to resolve the uncertainty of VOUS. Pretest and posttest genetic…[Read more]
