Airflow dynamics in an emergency department: A CFD simulation study to analyse COVID-19 dispersion by Odi Fawwaz Alrebi (19499188)

“…The analysis revealed that three critical areas of the emergency department, namely overnight patient beds, operating rooms, and resuscitation rooms, had significantly higher air velocity, dispersion, and mixing levels than the rest of the department's spaces. According to the two scenarios examined, the possibility of air transmission from these locations to neighboring areas becomes apparent, increasing the likelihood of transmitting the virus from these locations and infecting people in the adjacent areas, including patients and health care providers. …”

SARS‐CoV‐2 infection triggers more potent antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) responses than mRNA‐, vector‐, and inactivated virus‐based COVID‐19 vaccines by Hadeel T. Zedan (12535521)

“…We analyzed ADCC activity targeting SARS‐CoV‐2 spike (S) and nucleocapsid (N) proteins in convalescent sera following WT SARS‐CoV‐2‐infection (<i>n</i> = 91), including symptomatic and asymptomatic infections, omicron‐infection (<i>n</i> = 8), COVID‐19 vaccination with messenger RNA‐ (mRNA)‐ (BNT162b2 or mRNA‐1273, <i>n</i> = 77), adenovirus vector‐ (<i>n</i> = 41), and inactivated virus‐ (<i>n</i> = 46) based vaccines, as well as post‐mRNA vaccination BTI caused by omicron (<i>n</i> = 28). …”

Low-level amikacin resistance induced by AAC(6′)-Ib and AAC(6′)-Ib-cr in extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales isolated from urine in children by Hassan Al, Mana

“…Over the past few years, however, amikacin has been increasingly used to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children caused by Enterobacterales producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), given the low resistance rates to this agent among ESBL-producing uropathogens worldwide. …”

“…<p dir="ltr">Diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN) is an early indicator for non-healing diabetic wounds and diabetic foot ulcers, which account for one of the most common complications of diabetes, leading to increased healthcare cost, decreased quality of life, infections, amputations, and death. …”

Comparative effectiveness of one versus two doses of COVID-19 vaccines in Qatar: Evidence of converging protection over time by Hiam Chemaitelly (439114)

“…Similar trends were observed for mRNA-1273 and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, with mRNA-1273 reaching two-dose levels of effectiveness as early as month 2. In contrast to the gradual buildup of protection against infection, single-dose effectiveness against severe, critical, or fatal COVID-19 increased rapidly for all three vaccines, exceeding 85 % by day 21 and closely matching the protection achieved after two doses.…”
