84 95% CI [0.55, 1.26]) and provision of contraceptive products, including condoms (aOR 0.54 95% CI [0.26, 1.16]) and dual-method (aOR 1.80 95% CI [0.81, 3.99]) for female ALHIV. Also, there were no significant differences in the likelihood of contraceptive prevalence (aOR 0.99 95% CI [0.59, 1.67], unmet need for contraception (aOR 1.64 95% CI…[Read more]

Higher viral load (low Ct) samples exhibited higher probability of being detected on the surfaces than those samples with lower/moderate (high Ct) viral load.

Common inanimate surfaces are potential source of the viral transmission, however the viral load on these surfaces are key determinant of such transmission.

Common inanimate…[Read more]

The aim of the current study was to evaluate whether tubular markers kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and N-acetyl-ß-glucosaminidase (NAG) are related to acute kidney injury (AKI) and severe disease in patients with COVID-19.

In this prospective observational clinical trial we examined a cohort of 80 patients with proof of acute…[Read more]

Salmonella Typhimurium survives and replicates inside the oxidative environment of phagocytic cells. Proteins, because of their composition and location, are the foremost targets of host inflammatory response. Among others, Met-residues are highly prone to oxidation. Methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr), with the help of thioredoxin-thioredoxin…[Read more]
