Project description:Circulating miRNAs in patients who underwent ARDS and needed mechanical ventilation were analyzed by next generation sequencing (NGS) in comparison with patients who had COVID-19 poor symptoms but without intensive care unit requirement.

Project description:GUT MICROBIOTA IN CARDIO-SURGICAL INTENSIVE CARE PATIENTS
Project description:We assayed leukocyte global gene expression for a prospective discovery cohort of 265 adult patients admitted to UK intensive care units with severe sepsis due to community acquired pneumonia.
Project description:We assayed leukocyte global gene expression for a prospective validation cohort of 106 adult patients admitted to UK intensive care units with severe sepsis due to community acquired pneumonia.
Project description:Female genital tract (FGT) diseases such as bacterial vaginosis (BV) and sexually transmitted infections are prevalent in South Africa, with young women being at an increased risk. Since imbalances in the FGT microbiome are associated with FGT diseases, it is vital to investigate the factors that influence FGT health. The mycobiome plays an important role in regulating mucosal health, especially when the bacterial component is disturbed. However, we have a limited understanding of the FGT mycobiome since many studies have focused on bacterial communities and have neglected low abundance taxonomic groups, such as fungi. To reduce this knowledge deficit, we present the first large-scale metaproteomic study to define the taxonomic composition and potential functional processes of the FGT mycobiome in South African reproductive-age women. We examined FGT fungal communities present in 123 women by collecting lateral vaginal wall swabs for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
Project description:We assayed leukocyte global gene expression for a prospective discovery cohort of 106 adult patients admitted to UK intensive care units with sepsis due to community acquired pneumonia or faecal peritonitis. We assigned all samples to sepsis response signature groups after performing unsupervised analysis of the transcriptomic data.
