The Impact of Alcohol Use Disorder on Tuberculosis: A Review of the Epidemiology and Potential Immunologic Mechanisms
Globally, an estimated 107 million people have an alcohol use disorder (AUD) leading to 2.8 million premature deaths each year.Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the leading causes of death globally and over 8% of global TB cases are estimated to be attributable to AUD.Social Tick Control - Collars determinants of health such as poverty and undernutrition
Enhanced Biocide Treatments with D-amino Acid Mixtures against a Biofilm Consortium from a Water Cooling Tower
Different species of microbes form mixed-culture biofilms in cooling water systems.They cause microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and biofouling, leading to increased operational and maintenance costs.In this work, two D-amino acid mixtures were found to enhance two non-oxidizing biocides [tetrakis hydroxymethyl phosphonium sulfate (THPS)
Engineered smart materials for RNA based molecular therapy to treat Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive malignancy of the central nervous system (CNS) that remains incurable despite the multitude of improvements in cancer therapeutics.The conventional chemo and radiotherapy post-surgery have only been able to improve the prognosis slightly; however, the development of resistance and/or tumor recurrence is almost in
