Evaluation of droplet production by a new design of clinical handwash basin for the healthcare environmentHand-washBasinDropletSplashPseudomonasLegionellaSplashing from handwash basins may be a source of bacteria in the healthcare environment. A novel splash-reducing basin was assessed for its ability ...
Each laboratory should have a hand basin and disposable paper towels provided. Ventilation systems designed to prevent the distribution of infectious airborne particles were developed during the Second World War based on the "Clean-to-Dirty" airflow principle, where more air is extracted from the ...
On the other hand, no association was found between other vector-borne pathogens and seasonality. This could be due to the high probability of subclinical or chronic infection with E. canis [16] with the consequent delay in detection of infection as well as with leishmaniosis [2, 4, 6]. ...
On the other hand, Smads can bind p107 and E2F4/5 to inhibit the expression of c-Myc, thus regulating the variable splicing of PKM precursor RNA. Overall, TGF-β can inhibit cell proliferation by regulating the cell cycle and reducing glycolysis under normoxia (left). HIF-1α protein is...
The Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) is a term used to identify a dietary pattern originating from the unique multi-millennial interplay between natural food resources and the eating practices of people living in the Mediterranean basin. Scientific evidence has described the healthy properties of the Med...
