Etiological and epidemiological aspects of nosocomial bacterial infections during the COVID-19 pandemic

The most important aspect of the problem of the quality of medical care is the epidemiological safety of the therapeutic and diagnostic process. The intensive development of high-tech, invasive methods of diagnosis and treatment, combined with the widespread spread of multidrug-resistant microorganisms, determine the need for continuous improvement of the system of supervision and control of infections associated with medical care (ISMP). The aim of the study was to identify cases of ventilator-associated lower respiratory tract infections in intensive care units (ICU) when infected with ESСAPE group bacteria; to study their prevalence, etiological structure and epidemiological significance in intensive care patients with COVID-19 undergoing invasive artificial ventilation (ventilator). The results of the study showed that in COVID-19 patients who received respiratory support in the ventilator mode, representatives of the ESСAPE group of bacteria (with genetic determinants of multiantibiotic resistance) were found more than 2 times more often than in surgical patients, which indicates the important epidemiological significance of aerobic gram-negative bacteria and non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria of the ESСAPE spectrum in patients COVID-19 in the formation of colonization and ventilator-associated infection of the respiratory tract. At the same time, both in COVID-19 patients and in patients with a surgical ICU, gram-negative bacteria of the genus Klebsiella spp., producing beta-lactamase, as well as non-fermenting gram-negative microorganisms Acinetobacter spp, were prioritized in the etiological structure. and P. aegidiposa, characterized by pronounced acquired resistance to antibiotics of the carbapenem group and are the prerogative of intensive care units. To ensure the epidemiological safety of medical care during ventilation, it is necessary to implement a strategy of empirical and targeted antibiotic therapy; monitoring of antibiotic resistance; conduct continuous epidemiological surveillance in the ICU with full collection of information on etiological agents, cases of respiratory tract infection and tighten epidemiological control over the preparation and conduct of ventilation.

Investigating Workplace Challenges: A Neutrosophic Soft Set Analysis of Female Workers' Problems in Diverse Industries

This research proposes a novel approach to rank the problems faced by female employees in various sectors by utilizing the concept of the bipolar single-valued Neutrosophic soft set-in variable. The feature assessment used an enormous collection of multi-observer information as a basis for examining the issues encountered by women employed in a variety of sectors. An effective method for identifying the Neutrosophic domain's choice-making problem is the Neutrosophic Soft Set. The creation of similar tables has shaped the investigation into classification. In a Neutrosophic setting, grouping objects and persons according to their properties, capacities, the result, etc., is advantageous.

Avian telencephalon and cerebellum volumes can be accurately estimated from digital brain endocasts.

For studies of the evolution of vertebrate brain anatomy and potentially associated behaviours, reconstructions of digital brain endocasts from computed tomography scans have revolutionized our capacity to collect neuroanatomical data. However, measurements from digital endocasts must be validated as reflecting actual brain anatomy, which is difficult because the collection of soft tissue information through histology is laborious and time-consuming. In birds, the reliability of digital endocast measurements as volume proxies for the two largest brain regions-the telencephalon and cerebellum-remains to be validated despite their use as proxies, e.g. of cognitive performance or flight ability. We here use the largest dataset of histology and digital endocasts to date, including 136 species from 25 avian orders, to compare digital endocast surface area measurements with actual brain volumes of the telencephalon, cerebellum and whole-brain endocast. Using linear and phylogenetically informed regression analyses, we demonstrate that endocast surfaces are strongly correlated with their brain volume counterparts for both absolute and relative size. This provides empirical support for using endocast-derived cerebellar and telencephalic surface areas in existing and future studies of living and extinct birds, with potential to expand to the dinosaur-bird transition in the future.

Safeguarding Iguana diversity: enabling rapid and low-effort tracking of non-native iguanas through terrestrial eDNA innovations

Reptiles have among the highest extinction risk across terrestrial vertebrates, with habitat fragmentation, habitat destruction, and invasive alien species being the primary causes of reptile species loss on a global scale. Invasive hybridization (i.e. hybridization between native and invasive alien species) is increasing globally, causing the extinction of native genotypes, and this phenomenon is particularly pervasive in Caribbean iguanas. The Lesser Antillean Iguana (Iguana delicatissima), a keystone species of Caribbean coastal ecosystems, has become critically endangered mainly due to ongoing hybridization with the invasive Common Green Iguana (I. iguana). For impactful conservation intervention, the need for early detection of invasive animals and their progeny, or detection of surviving pure native animals, is urgent. We aimed to develop a novel environmental DNA (eDNA) toolkit using Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) technology, a method of allele-specific amplification for cost-effective and efficient sampling of terrestrial substrates to aid in mapping the distribution of native I. delicatissima, invasive I. iguana, and signal potential invasive hybridization. We demonstrate proof-of-concept and successfully identified I. delicatissima, I. iguana, and their hybrids via blood samples using our primer sets, as well as successful detection of I. delicatissima in several ex-situ (Rotterdam Zoo) and in-situ (St. Eustatius) eDNA samples, collected with environmental swabs and tape-lifting. We found that sampling potential perching spots yielded the highest number of positive detections via environmental swabbing and tape-lifting. Our toolkit demonstrates the potential of terrestrial eDNA sampling for iguana conservation, enabling faster detection of putative invasive hybridization. Additionally, the method holds promise for other terrestrial cryptic species, contributing to broader collection of population-level information.

A 'One-Shot' strategy for preparative chiral sub/supercritical fluid chromatography with chiroptical detection accelerates purification and enhances characterization for drug discovery.

The advantages of a streamlined SFC chiral workflow for preparative chromatographic resolution of the enantiomers of investigational new compounds for pharmaceutical discovery on 10-20 mg scale with on-line chiroptical detection is described. The workflow has been designed to supply milligram amounts of enantiopure material using a universal gradient elution approach. Implementation of a faster and more labor efficient chiral purification workflow was the primary objective, with the secondary objective being an on-line collection of stereochemical information for separated enantiomers with the return of weighed compounds with acceptable purity. Column selection is carried out by gradient analytical SFC screening of six columns in 20 mins, while preparative resolution is carried out in a single injection using an 8-minute gradient with on-line polarimetric detection to assign and confirm the unique optical rotations of each of the eluted enantiomers. Additionally, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry detection is employed to facilitate fraction collection as well as product identification. The new workflow was piloted over a several month period and has proved to be an effective strategy for small scale preparative enantioseparations. Although these smaller-scale chiral separations currently constitute only a sixth of submissions in our laboratory, the one-shot workflow offers clear advantages for rapidly providing enantiopure material for initial in-vitro testing, reducing purification and evaporation cycle times and labor requirements.

Creating a doula support program for pregnant teens using human-centered design.

Pregnant teens experience suboptimal outcomes during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, which can adversely impact their health and that of their children. Human-centered design (HCD) is an approach to solving complex problems that prioritizes the lived experiences of those who would be served by the new program or intervention. Recognizing the utility of HCD to the creation of successful health interventions, we describe the application of these methods to create a comprehensive doula program to support pregnant teens. We followed the three phases of HCD. The inspiration phase allowed for the collection of information about the needs and preferences of teen parents. During the ideation phase these ideas were processed and developed into potential solutions. Lastly during the implementation phase we created a pilot doula support program, Beyond the Bump. Beyond the Bump served 12 participants who had positive birth outcomes, including low rates of cesarean section deliveries and high rates of breastfeeding initiation. The doulas and program participants had positive impressions of the program. Beyond the Bump may serve as a model for others aiming to incorporate lived experiences of patients into the design of new interventions.

Our assessment also substantiated the program's efficacy in practice. This study highlights that the IPMD-F can be a significant resource for families of children with reading difficulties and suggests broader implementation of such programs.

Blockchain and smart contracts based system for criminal record management

Reducing crime rate in a country is the most important concern of developing robust systems to automate the criminal record-obtaining process. Generally, the criminal record is managed manually, which makes the information collection from other criminal records very difficult. Therefore, investigations that could be carried out using criminal records to understand the purpose of crime and countering it are outdated. However, the integrity, security, and traceability of data exchange, especially for the judicial sector are the most frequent issues faced by information systems of public organizations. In this paper, we present a study of using blockchain technology and smart contracts to design a new architecture for a decentralized system to manage criminal record storage. This proposed architecture automates the process of getting a criminal record by moving past the techniques employed in developing traditional systems of data management such as centralized systems. In this study, blockchain technology is used to ensure data security, integrity, and traceability as well as ensure timely access to criminal records, and smart contracts are used to allow traceability and authenticity. This architecture will significantly reduce the impact of corruption in law enforcement by eliminating fraud cases, which will revolutionize E-governance in the Moroccan country.

The counter-narrative of an ‘unaccompanied minor’-young offender in Spain

Unaccompanied Foreign Minors (UFM) are often framed as criminals by many people in the general population, rather than as at-risk children. This paper analyses the case of Ibrahim, a Moroccan boy who had both identities (migrant and offender), but whose case ended positively, in order to dismantle prejudices, show underlying inequalities, and learn from good practice. The research was carried out using a biographical research methodology, using the cross-narrative model. The main sources of information and data collection techniques were: a) Interviews with 12 key informants; b) Documentary records (all files related to his case); and c) More than 200 photographs, mostly of his rehabilitation process. The results are divided into two parts. The first one shows the (risk factors) living conditions of the unaccompanied minors in their contexts of origin. And the second one analyses the most relevant aspects of the successful intervention carried out with him. The conclusions are drawn from their analysis: Firstly, an approach is recommended that is focused on humanising ‘UFM’ and ensuring a basic standard of living conditions, which would also reduce migration and anti-social behaviour. Secondly, a social, personalised, ecological and empowering model of intervention must be applied to support individuals transforming their circumstances.
