Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) drive extensive horizontal transfer in the gut microbiome.This transfer could benefit human health by conferring new metabolic capabilities to commensal microbes, or it could threaten human health by spreading antibiotic resistance genes to pathogens.Despite their biological importance and medical relevance, MGEs from
Magnetic field concentration using ferromagnetic material to propel a wireless power transfer based micro-robot
In this paper, we propose a novel coil structure, using a ferromagnetic material which concentrates the magnetic field, as the propulsion system of a Running Belt wireless power transfer (WPT) based micro-robot.This structure uses an incident magnetic field to induce current during wireless power transfer, to generate a Lorentz force.To prevent net
Benign Diseases Masquerading as Cholangiocarcinoma: Can we Differentiate before Surgery?
Background: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a potentially lethal disease that requires surgical treatment.There are many benign conditions, those that do not require surgical treatment, displaying imaging characteristics that resemble CCA, leading to therapeutic misadventures.This study aimed to evaluate the proportion of benign conditions that underwe
Ketamine: a new view on therapeutic opportunities in psychiatric practice
This article is a review of evidence-based research in English for the past 15 years thanks to Garlic access via a database PubMed and Medline, about the new features out of claimed indications of the well-known short--acting anesthetic, ketamine.Latter being the antagonist of NMDA receptors by activating glutamatergic transmission has antidepressa
POSSIBILITIES OF LOCAL THERAPY FOR LOW BACK PAIN
Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most common pain syndromes caused by musculoarticular pathology.Analgesics, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), myorelaxants, and non-drug therapies are used to treat patients with LBP.The sufficient efficiency of this type of therapy is strongly supported by the results of clinical trials; its fundamenta
