ohesive scientific understanding more quickly not only for COVID-19 but also for all diseases. Conversely, if only isolated pockets of data are shared then society loses the opportunity to close vital gaps in our understanding of this rapidly evolving epidemic. This current challenge serves to highlight the value of data sharing platforms-critical…[Read more]

01-1.05, p  less then  0.001) alongside with the whole enterococcal bacteremias trend (IRR 1.02, 95% CIs 1.01-1.04, p = 0.002). A progressive increase in vancomycin-resistant E. faecium (VREfm) bacteremias was observed. Resistance to tigecycline and linezolid was rarely reported. The incidence of enterococcal bloodstream isolates is increas…[Read more]

With better understanding of its transmission characteristics, practical nonpharmaceutical preventive measures remain essential to reduce SARS-CoV-2 transmission and its associated health and socioeconomic burdens.

Because well tolerated and effective vaccines for SARS-CoV-2 are unlikely to be widely available in the near future, there is an…[Read more]

Salmonella enterica can colonize all parts of the tomato plant. Tomatoes have been frequently implicated in salmonellosis outbreaks. In agricultural settings, Salmonella must overcome stress, nutritional and competition barriers to become established on plant surfaces. Knowledge of the genetic mechanisms underlying Salmonella-plant associations is…[Read more]

The minimum inhibitory concentration values against the bacterial and fungal strains were similar for both extracts in the range of 50∼100 μg/mL. Minimum bactericidal concentration and minimum fungicidal concentration values ranged from 100∼200 μg/mL for both extracts. The results in this study indicate that C. sinensis seed oil and non-oil extra…[Read more]

his may exacerbate the existing geographical health and socioeconomic inequalities under a changing climate.

Melanoma is rare but dangerous skin cancer, and it can spread rather quickly in the advanced stages of the tumor. Abundant evidence suggests the relationship between tumor development and progression and the immune system. A robust gene…[Read more]
