Hemorrhagic bowel syndrome in dairy cattle: Gross, histological, and microbiological characterization.
sequencing showed a polymicrobial population at the hematoma and unaffected intestine, with mostly mild presence of at selective culture. Gross and microscopic lesions, as well as the culture and sequencing ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
investigated to improve the results in particular when skipping the culture enrichment of the food and other applications for public health can be explored as well such as the analysis of the human microbiomes ...
Measuring mental health burden in humanitarian settings: a critical review of assessment tools
to disasters’ impacts on mental health is growing, mental health effects are not well understood due to inconsistencies in measurement. Objective: The purpose of this study is to review mental health ...
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in solid-organ transplant patients in the intensive care unit.
transplantation (SOT) is a well-known risk factor for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA). We report on the epidemiology and outcome of SOT patients with IPA in an intensive care unit (ICU) setting. METHODS: ...

2_suppl (2020) Abstract: BACKGROUND: Sustainable healthy diets are those dietary patterns that promote all dimensions of individuals’ health and well-being; have low environmental pressure and impact; are ...
Targeting the 16S rRNA gene for bacterial identification in complex mixed samples: comparative evaluation of second (Illumina) and third (Oxford Nanopore Technologies) generation sequencing technologies.
bacterial identification in biological samples is an important task for microbiology laboratories, for which 16S~rRNA gene Sanger sequencing of cultured isolates is frequently used. In contrast, ...
Health-related quality of life in patients with diabetic foot ulceration: study protocol for adaptation and validation of patient-reported outcome measurements (PROMs) in Dutch-speaking patients.
a standardised method of obtaining patients’ views on their well-being. The DFU Scale Short Form (DFS- SF) is a validated disease-specific PROM for measuring health-related quality of life among DFU patients. The ...
RNA-based drug susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
this method is that it avoids a long culture-dependent step, yet detects the resistance phenotype, independent of the specific cause of resistance. First, the global transcriptional response of H37R ...
Subcutaneous Granulomatous Inflammation due to Basidiobolomycosis: Case Reports of 3 Patients in Buruli Ulcer Endemic Areas in Benin.
other diseases, such as soft tissue tumors, lymphoma, or Buruli ulcer in the preulcerative stage. Microbiological confirmation by PCR for and culture yield the most specific diagnosis, yet they are not ...
