Measuring Black Hole Spin using X-ray Reflection Spectroscopy

, 2013
I review the current status of X-ray reflection (a.k.a. broad iron line) based black hole spin measurements. This is a powerful technique that allows us to measure robust black hole spins across the mass range, from the stellar-mass black holes in X-ray ...

Bacteriophage Therapy: Current Strategies and Future Perspectives

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
This manuscript systematically reviews the expanding scope of phage applications. It moves beyond traditional antibacterial use to explore their role in precision therapies against drug‐resistant infections, their synergy with antibiotics, and advanced biomaterial‐assisted delivery systems.

Colistin and Biofilm‐Related Genes of Positive Escherichia coli O157:H7 in Cattle (Bos taurus) Carcasses Antibiotic Resistance Profiles, Biofilm and Molecular Characterisation of Isolates

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Antimicrobial resistance in various infectious agents poses a public health threat. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the antibiotic resistance profiles, biofilm formation abilities and molecular characterisation of colistin‐resistant Escherichia coli O157:H7 from cattle carcasses.

The Balkan region: NDM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11 clonal strain causing outbreaks in Greece [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2014
Despite the fact that the NDM-1 carbapenemase has successfully disseminated worldwide, outbreaks remain uncommon in the European region. We describe the characteristics of the first outbreaks caused by NDM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clonal isolates in Greece.Between January 2010 and June 2013, 132 non-repetitive carbapenem-resistant ...

Fuzzy States to Enhance Train Delay Prediction of Markov Chains

IET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This study introduces Markov chains with fuzzy delay states with triangular membership functions for the first time to model train delay predictions. It is shown that the prediction errors can be reduced by the fuzzification adoption. ABSTRACT Markov chains provide distinctive advantages and practical applicability in modeling of train delays.

Perturbative N=2 supersymmetric quantum mechanics and L-theory with complex coefficients

, 2015
We construct L-theory with complex coefficients from the geometry of 1|2-dimensional perturbative mechanics. Methods of perturbative quantization lead to wrong-way maps that we identify with those coming from the MSO-orientation of L-theory tensored with

Genetic Diversity of Polymyxin Resistance Genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 2, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the genetic diversity and evolutionary mechanisms driving polymyxin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae, a critical priority pathogen. By analysing mgrB, phoPQ and pmrAB genes in susceptible (PM‐S) and resistant (PM‐R) populations through neutrality tests (Tajima D, Fu & Li's D) we uncovered polygenic adaptation and ...

Clinical Epidemiological Analysis of the Genotypic Spectrum and Mortality Risk in Carbapenem‐Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) Infections

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Carbapenem‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) has become a global public health threat, with significantly increased morbidity and mortality among high‐risk inpatients. High‐risk genotypes of CRKP, primarily including K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC), oxacillinase‐48–like (OXA‐48–like), New Delhi metallo‐β‐lactamase (NDM), imipenemase ...

The method of data envelopment analysis as a tool for compiling a rating list [PDF]

The paper presents the method of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) as a tool for compiling rating lists in tasks of ordering elements of assemblages. We describe the differences that result from applying a one-dimensional model and multi-dimensional model,
