Mycophenolate Mofetil Treatment Reduces the Risk of Treatment Escalation Due to Vascular Complications in Limited Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis: Emulation of a Target Trial From the Italian Rheumatology Society SPRING Registry

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon because of the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Detection of mecA and enterotoxin genes in Staphylococcus aureus isolates associated with bovine mastitis and characterization of Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) in MRSA strains

Iranian Journal of Microbiology, 2015
Background and Objectives:  Staphylococcus aureus is one of the main causatives of bovine mastitis. Resistance of some strains to methicillin, can complicate the treatment of its infections.

Antibacterial efficacy of the cassava (Manihot esculenta C.) leaf and pirdot (Saurauia vulcani K.) leaf extract combination against Staphylococcus aureus

Journal of Advanced Pharmaceutical Technology & Research
Staphylococcus aureus is a common bacterium causing various infections. The irrational use of antibiotics can lead to resistance, prompting the exploration of alternative treatments, such as herbal plants like cassava and pirdot leaves.

Dynamical effects of the ambipolar diffusion in a protoplanetary disc

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACTSeveral recent simulation works in the non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) formalism have shown the importance of ambipolar diffusion (AD) within the protoplanetary discs (PPDs) at large radii. In this study, we model the time evolution of a polytropic PPD in the presence of the AD.
