Antibiotics versus non‐antibiotic treatments for acute otitis externa: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesClinical Otolaryngology, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 841-862, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Otitis externa is a condition causing inflammation of the outer ear canal, which presents with itching, discharge and pain. Most cases of acute otitis externa are caused by bacterial infection and are thus treated with antibiotics.

Overview of Thermal Hydraulic Optimization and Verification for the EU-DEMO HCPB BOP ICD Variant

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
When progressing from the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) to the Demonstration Fusion Reactor (DEMO), a system for transferring plasma heat exhaust to a power conversion system is necessary for the so-called Balance of Plant (BOP).

Genome comparison reveals that Halobacterium salinarum 63‐R2 is the origin of the twin laboratory strains NRC‐1 and R1

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2023., 2023
The complete genomes of four Halobacterium salinarum strains were compared in detail. Two strains (91‐R6T and 63‐R2) were isolated in 1934 by Lochhead from cow and buffalo hides. From the results of these comparisons, we conclude that strain 63‐R2 is the immediate ancestor of the two, widely used laboratory strains NRC‐1 and R1.

The Study of Escherichia coli as Antimicrobial-Resistant Sentinel Microorganism Isolated in the Farms of Three Districts of Ankara by MALDI-TOF MS and Genomic Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
The antibiotic susceptibility of Escherichia coli isolates isolated from faeces and soil samples collected from farms in three districts where livestock farming activities are intensively carried out via phenotypic and genotypic methods and the presence of extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamases (ESBLs) via a double‐disc synergy test. Only one E. coli strain

Role of ventilation on the transmission of viruses in buildings, from a single zone to a multizone approach

open access: yesIndoor Air, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022
Abstract In a virus pandemic context, buildings ventilation has been recognized as a solution for preventing transmission of the virus in aerosolized form. The impact of the widespread recommendation of window opening and sealing door on ventilation circuits needs to be considered with a multizone approach.

Heterogeneous design and mechanical analysis of HELIAS 5‐B helium‐cooled pebble bed breeding blanket concept

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 46, Issue 3, Page 2748-2770, 10 March 2022., 2022
Summary One of the most challenging objectives of the European research concerning nuclear fusion technology, promoted by the EUROfusion consortium, is to bring stellarator‐type nuclear fusion devices to maturity. To this purpose, studies on a large HELIcal‐axis advanced stellarator (HELIAS), extrapolated from Wendelstein 7‐X and based on a 5‐fold ...
