Layered Screening and Contact-Limiting Interventions Are Necessary to Reduce SARS-Cov-2 Outbreak Risks in Large Urban Jails
Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2023 Sep 5:tpmd220716. doi: 10.4269/ajtmh.22-0716. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHighly transmissible infections with short serial intervals, such as SARS-Cov-2 and influenza, can quickly overwhelm healthcare resources in institutional settings such as jails. We assessed the impact of intake screening measures on the risk of SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks in this setting. We identified which elements of the intake process created the largest reductions in caseload. We implemented an individual-based simulation representative of SARS-Cov-2 transmission in a large urban jail utilizing testing at entry, quarantine, a...

Which qualities should built environment possess to ensure satisfaction of higher-education students with remote education during pandemics?
This study examines the perceptions and experiences of many aspects of online education from the viewpoint of Chinese HEIs and university students who shifted to online modes of instruction during the COVID-19 outbreak. This research aimed to determine whether or not college students were happy with the resources available to them, how their teachers communicated with them, how they were evaluated, and the conditions in which they studied at home. It also looked at the pros and cons of online learning from the students' points of view. For this study, researchers opted for a cross-sectional survey using an online questionn...

Independent risk factors for COVID-19-associated coagulopathy
CONCLUSIONS: Not receiving LMWH, high levels of D-dimer, initial LDH, and initial ferritin are independent risk factors for CAC. DIC does not appear to develop based on COVID-19.PMID:37667962 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202308_33440

Telogen effluvium and COVID-19: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: In our study, the incidence of TE was highly related to COVID-19 infections among both sexes. However, the incidence was greater among the female population. The awareness level toward post-COVID-19 TE was poor among most of the participants in our study.PMID:37667959 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202308_33437

"You Needed to Accept the Situation": Resilience of Nursing Home Residents in Times of COVID-19
Can J Aging. 2023 Sep 4:1-9. doi: 10.1017/S0714980823000399. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe restrictive measures taken by nursing homes during the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020 (e.g., quarantine) may have been important stressors for which residents needed resilience to safeguard their well-being. Based on 30 semi-structured interviews with nursing home residents and close relatives, this study explored the lived experiences with respect to the restrictive measures. The data were collected in psychogeriatric, somatic, and mixed wards in The Netherlands and Flanders, Belgium. The restrictive measures were important stressors...

Inactivation of Salmonella and Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli on soft wheat kernels using vacuum steam pasteurization
This study used a newly designed lab-scale vacuum steam pasteurizer (VSP) to evaluate its efficacy to inactivate multiple strains of Salmonella and STEC on soft wheat by modeling the non-isothermal time-temperature history during treatment and reduction of the microbial populations. The results demonstrated that vacuum steam treatment could effectively disinfect wheat grains inoculated with enteric pathogens. In this study, Salmonella strains were less thermally resistant than STEC strains. The D75°C of Salmonella strains were 2.8 and 3.2 min, and the D75°C of STEC ranged from 3.1 to 4.6 min. E. faecium had a D75°C of 3...

Role of cancer-educated mesenchymal stromal cells on tumor progression
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Sep 1;166:115405. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115405. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe malignant tumor is the main cause of human deaths worldwide. Current therapies focusing on the tumor itself have achieved unprecedented benefits. Various pro-tumorigenic factors in the tumor microenvironment (TME) could abolish the effect of cancer therapy. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are one of the substantial components in the tumor microenvironment, contributing to tumor progression. However, MSCs are not inherently tumor-promoting. Indeed, they acquire pro-tumorigenic properties under the education of t...
