and McMahon et al. reported that adolescence was significantly associated with longer LOS following CS in Brazil and Tanzania, respectively [31, 32]. Our findings were unexpected because the higher prevalence of childbirth complications among adolescents should necessitate longer LOS than in adults [33...

In this observational study, we analysed a cohort of 164 subarachnoid haemorrhage survivors (until discharge from intensive care) with the aim to detect factors that influence the length of stay (LOS) in intensive care with multiple linear regression methods. Moreover, binary logistic regression meth...
By contrast, a much larger proportion of CCS reads from the human sinonasal communities mapped to the human genome (9.9%), suggesting off-target amplification of human DNA when in vast excess over bacterial DNA (alternatively, the U937 cell line DNA used for the BEI experiment may have lacked...

The overall range in δ13C values on the degraded reef (Bonanza) relative to Limones reflects the broader range in δ13C values of basal carbon sources, which ranged from −18.76 ± 3.01 (mean ± SD) for turf algae to −8.78 ± 0.58 for the red coralline algaeAmphi...
Microbial communities are responsible for biological wastewater treatment, but our knowledge of their diversity and function is still poor. Here, we sequence more than 5 million high-quality, full-length 16S rRNA gene sequences from 740 wastewater treatm
In addition to being a metal naturally found in drinking water, lithium also has clinical applications, and is currently a first-line treatment for bipolar disorder (BD), where it acts as an effective mood-stabilizer [27]. BD patients are therefore a useful cohort to study the effects of li...
