How Did COVID-19 Impact the Antimicrobial Consumption and Bacterial Resistance Profiles in Brazil?
The indiscriminate use of antibiotics has favored the selective pressure of multidrug resistance among microorganisms. This research evaluated the pattern of antibiotic prescriptions among the Brazilian population between January 2018 and December 2021 ...

The varying kinematics of multiple ejecta from the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820 + 070 [PDF]
During a 2018 outburst, the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820 + 070 was comprehensively monitored at multiple wavelengths as it underwent a hard to soft state transition. During this transition, a rapid evolution in X-ray timing properties and a short-

Impact of HPV-16 Lineages Infection in Response to Radio-Chemotherapy in Cervical Cancer
Background: HPV is strongly related to cervical cancer. HPV lineages can contribute to a response to cervical cancer therapy. The aim of this research was to estimate the frequency of human papillomavirus (HPV)-16 lineages in specimens of cervical cancer,

Jet Parameters in the Black Hole X-Ray Binary MAXI J1820+070 [PDF]
We study the jet in the hard state of the accreting black hole (BH) binary MAXI J1820+070. From the available radio-to-optical spectral and variability data, we put strong constraints on the jet parameters.

In the diagnosis of olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), the presence of S-100–positive sustentacular cells surrounding the tumor is important; however, these are also present in normal nasal sinus epithelium. Although ONB often has a different final diagnosis,

Hybrid Comptonization and Electron–Positron Pair Production in the Black-hole X-Ray Binary MAXI J1820+070 [PDF]
We study X-ray and soft gamma-ray spectra from the hard state of the accreting black-hole binary MAXI J1820+070. We perform an analysis of two joint spectra from NuSTAR and INTEGRAL, covering the range of 3–650 keV, and of an average joint spectrum over ...

BH3-mimetics- and cisplatin-induced cell death proceeds through different pathways depending on the availability of death-related cellular components. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Owing to their important function in regulating cell death, pharmacological inhibition of Bcl-2 proteins by dubbed BH3-mimetics is a promising strategy for apoptosis induction or sensitization to chemotherapy. However, the role of Apaf-1, the

A full spectral-timing model to map the accretion flow in black hole binaries: the low/hard state of MAXI J1820+070 [PDF]
The nature and geometry of the accretion flow in the low/hard state of black hole binaries is currently controversial. While most properties are generally explained in the truncated disc/hot inner flowmodel, the detection of a broad residual around the ...

On the Conjectures Regarding the 4-Point Atiyah Determinant [PDF]
For the case of 4 points in Euclidean space, we present a computer aided proof of Conjectures II and III made by Atiyah and Sutcliffe regarding Atiyah's determinant along with an elegant factorization of the square of the imaginary part of Atiyah's ...

A Multiwavelength Study of the Hard and Soft States of MAXI J1820+070 During Its 2018 Outburst [PDF]
We present a comprehensive multiwavelength spectral analysis of the black hole (BH) X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 during its 2018 outburst, utilizing AstroSat far-UV, soft X-ray, and hard X-ray data, along with (quasi-)simultaneous optical and X-ray data ...
