The Oral Cavity—Another Reservoir of Antimicrobial-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus?
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common potentially pathogenic bacteria that may asymptomatically colonize many sites of healthy carriers. Non-nasal carriage, especially in the oral cavity, and its role in transmitting antimicrobial-resistant S ...

Evaluation of human obstructive sleep apnea using computational fluid dynamics. [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity might be correlated to the flow characteristics of the upper airways. We aimed to investigate the severity of OSA based on 3D models constructed from CT scans coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD ...
