Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are gaining acceptance and support as a chief antibiotic substitute since they boost human immunity. They retain a wide range of actions and have a low risk of developing resistance, which are critical properties to the pharmaceutical industry for drug discovery. Antibiotic sensitivity, however, is an issue that affects people all around the world and has the potential to one day lead to an epidemic. As cutting-edge therapeutic agents, AMPs are also expected to cure microbial infections...

Instant rice congee (IRC) fortified with functional ingredients is designed for supplementation in nourishing the elderly. In this study, collagen peptide and curcumin were fortified in IRC to improve antioxidant and protein content. Different cooking methods were used to prepare rice congee in order to retain the nutritional content of instant fortified rice congee (IFRC). The effect of cooking methods on IFRC were investigated in this study using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR)...

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has brought significant mental health challenges, particularly for vulnerable populations, including non-binary gender individuals. The COMET international study aimed to investigate specific risk factors for clinical depression or distress during the pandemic, also in these special populations. METHODS: Chi-square tests were used for initial screening to select only those variables which would show an initial significance. Risk Ratios (RR) were calculated, and a Multiple Backward Stepwise Linear Regression Analysis (MBSLRA) was followed with those variables given significant results at screening and with the presence of distress or depression or the lack of both of them...

OBJECTIVE: To improve the outcomes in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice using intraluminal stenting. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The present study included 62 patients with clinical symptoms of malignant obstructive jaundice. In the main group, we performed biliary stenting with self-expanding multi-perforated stents (Hanarostent Multi-hole Biliary). Microscopic perforations of these stents prevent migration and reduce the risk of blocking the cystic and main pancreatic ducts...

OBJECTIVE: Conditional automated driving (SAE level 3) requires the driver to take over the vehicle if the automated system fails. The mental workload that can occur in these takeover situations is an important human factor that can directly affect driver behavior and safety, so it is important to predict it. Therefore, this study introduces a method to predict mental workload during takeover situations in automated driving, using the ACT-R (Adaptive Control of Thought-Rational) cognitive architecture...

In this work, we classify the stress state of car drivers using multimodal physiological signals and regularized deep kernel learning. Using a driving simulator in a controlled environment, we acquire electrocardiography (ECG), electrodermal activity (EDA), photoplethysmography (PPG), and respiration rate (RESP) from N = 10 healthy drivers in experiments of 25min duration with different stress states (5min resting, 10min driving, 10min driving + answering cognitive questions). We manually remove unusable segments and approximately 4h of data remain...

Mercury (Hg) is an important environmental toxicant to which humans are exposed on a regular basis. Mercuric ions within biological systems do not exist as free ions. Rather, they are bound to free sulfhydryl groups (thiols) on biological molecules. Metallothionein (MT) is a cysteine-rich, metal-binding protein that has been shown to bind to heavy metals and reduce their toxic effects in target cells and organs. Little is known about the effect of MT on the handing and disposition of Hg. Therefore, the current study was designed to test the hypothesis that overexpression of MT alters the corporal disposition of Hg and reduces its nephrotoxicity...

Arterial hypertension is a frequent condition after kidney transplantation and its treatment is a common agenda of the follow- up care. Retrospective data show that treatment of arterial hypertension decreases the risk of kidney graft loss. While randomized controlled trials for target blood pressures in kidney transplant recipients are not available, < 130/80 mm Hg is the most frequently mentioned value. Generally, all classes of antihypertensive drugs can be used, but it is important to consider timing after transplantation and possible interactions with immunosuppressive drugs...
