Abstract Background Studies of host-parasite interactions have the potential to provide insights into the ecology of both organisms involved.We monitored the movement of sucking lice (Lemurpediculus verruculosus), parasites that require direct host-host contact to be transferred, in their host population of wild mouse lemurs (Microcebus rufus).Thes
Tinctoporellus epimiltinus is widely known as a wood-decaying fungus.In the present study, we identified the complete mitochondrial genome of this species using next-generation sequencing technology.Our findings revealed that the genomic structure is a circular molecule with a size of 51,878 bp.Consistent with most Twin Platform Bed with Drawer Bas
Varanids are the only non-avian sauropsids that are known to approach the warm-blooded mammals in stamina.Furthermore, a much higher maximum metabolic rate (MMR) gives endotherms (including birds) higher stamina than crocodiles, turtles, and non-varanid lepidosaurs.This has led researchers to hypothesize that mammalian endothermy evolved as a secon
Objective: To compare the effectiveness and safety of aerosolized (AER) plus intravenous (IV) colistin with IV colistin alone in patients with nosocomial pneumonia (NP) due to multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria.Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of adults with NP who received IV colistin alone or in combination with AER co
