"…</p><h3>Methods</h3><p dir="ltr">Patient records were retrospectively reviewed during two periods: premature ASP (i.e. the 12 months following ASP implementation (May 2015-April 2016)), and mature ASP (i.e. the last 12 months of a 5-year ASP implementation in Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC) (February 2019-January 2020)). …"

CRISPR-Cas Controls Cryptic Prophages حسب Sooyeon Song (4891132)

"…We show here that the E. coli CRISPR-Cas system is active and serves to inhibit its nine defective (i.e., cryptic) prophages. Specifically, compared to the wild-type strain, reducing the amounts of specific interfering RNAs (crRNA) decreases growth by 40%, increases cell death by 700%, and prevents persister cell resuscitation. …"
