Prediction of Structural Stability of Layered Oxide Cathode Materials: Combination of Machine Learning and Ab Initio Thermodynamics

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, we developed a phase‐stability predictor by combining machine learning and ab initio thermodynamics approaches, and identified the key factors determining the favorable phase for a given composition. Specifically, a lower TM ionic potential, higher Na content, and higher mixing entropy favor the O3 phase.

Diagnostic performance of the Anyplex MTB/NTM real-time PCR in detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and nontuberculous mycobacteria from pulmonary and extrapulmonary specimens

Heliyon, 2022
Accurate and rapid diagnosis of mycobacterial infections is significant for appropriate treatment. In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the performance of the Anyplex MTB/NTM real-time detection assay (Anyplex MTB/NTM) compared to mycobacterial ...

Nontuberculous Mycobacteria in Horses: A Narrative Review

Veterinary Sciences, 2023
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections are increasing in human and veterinary medicine. Although horses were initially thought to be resistant to NTM infection, reports of horses suffering from gastrointestinal, respiratory, and reproductive ...

Comparison of MALDI-ToF mass spectrometry identification accuracy of Mycobacterium abscessus complex strains, isolated on various nutrient media

Инфекция и иммунитет
Background. Mycobacterium abscessus complex is one of the most abundant groups of rapidly growing non-tuberculous mycobacteria that has been increasingly more common causing infections of various localization, especially in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients.

Dermatologic Best Practices for Manicures and Nail Care: A Systematic Review

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Manicure and pedicure procedures are widely viewed as benign cosmetic practices, yet emerging evidence links them to various dermatologic complications, including dermatitis, infection, photodamage and, in rare cases, cutaneous malignancy.

Temporal community change in stream ecosystems varies by assemblage across US climates

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem properties are temporally dynamic. Temporal variability has been shown to decrease with increasing levels of biological organization (i.e. from population to community and ecosystem levels).

Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming climate, the knock‐on effects of a diminishing snowpack may reduce the hunting success of multiple large carnivore species.

Sputum Metabolites Associated with Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Infection in Cystic Fibrosis

mSphere, 2022
Nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) pulmonary infections in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality and are increasing in prevalence. Host risk factors for NTM infection in CF are largely unknown.
