UnknownMulti-scale analysis of habitat fragmentation on small-mammal abundance and tick-borne pathogen infection prevalence in Essex County, MA.
Habitat fragmentation and heterogeneity transform otherwise contiguous tracks of forest into smaller patches in the northeastern U.S. and likely impact abundances, movement patterns, and disease transmission pathways for small-mammal communities at multiple scales. We sought to determine the structu...

UnknownInfectious molecular clone of a recently transmitted pediatric human immunodeficiency virus clade C isolate from Africa: evidence of intraclade recombination.
Although human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) clade C continues to dominate the pandemic, only two infectious clade C proviral DNA clones have been described (N. Mochizuki, N. Otsuka, K. Matsuo, T. Shiino, A. Kojima, T. Kurata, K. Sakai, N. Yamamoto, S. Isomura, T. N. Dhole, Y. Takebe, M. Mat...

UnknownDysregulation through the NF-kappaB enhancer and TATA box of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 subtype E promoter.
The global diversity of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) genotypes, termed subtypes A to J, is considerable and growing. However, relatively few studies have provided evidence for an associated phenotypic divergence. Recently, we demonstrated subtype-specific functional differences within...

UnknownComparative outcomes of conservative, steinmann pin, and plate fixation in calcaneal fractures: a subtype-based evaluation according to the essex-lopresti classification.

Background

Calcaneal fractures are the most common tarsal fractures and often result in long-term disability. Although various treatment options exist, but the relationship between Essex-Lopresti subtypes, treatment methods, and dynamic functional recovery remains unclear.

Methods

Thi...

UnknownWastewater Surveillance to Confirm Differences in Influenza A Infection between Michigan, USA, and Ontario, Canada, September 2022-March 2023.
Wastewater surveillance is an effective way to track the prevalence of infectious agents within a community and, potentially, the spread of pathogens between jurisdictions. We conducted a retrospective wastewater surveillance study of the 2022-23 influenza season in 2 communities, Detroit, Michigan,...

UnknownCritical Illness in Migrant Workers in the Windsor-Essex Region: A Descriptive Analysis.
Despite their essential role in Canadian agriculture, migrant workers face numerous healthcare barriers. There is a knowledge gap regarding the healthcare experiences of migrant workers with critical illness in the Windsor-Essex region. Our objective was to collect information on the experiences of ...

UnknownSimplified strategy for detection of recombinant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 group M isolates by gag/env heteroduplex mobility assay. Study Group on Heterogeneity of HIV Epidemics in African Cities.
We developed a heteroduplex mobility assay in the gag gene (gag HMA) for the identification of group M subtypes A to H. The assay covers the region coding for amino acid 132 of p24 to amino acid 20 of p7 (according to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 [HIV-1] ELI, 460 bp). The gag HMA was compared...

UnknownDiamondoids are not forever: microbial biotransformation of diamondoid carboxylic acids.
Oil sands process-affected waters (OSPW) contain persistent, toxic naphthenic acids (NAs), including the abundant yet little-studied diamondoid carboxylic acids. Therefore, we investigated the aerobic microbial biotransformation of two of the most abundant, chronically toxic and environmentally rele...

UnknownStatistical field calibration of a low-cost PM2.5 monitoring network in Baltimore.
Low-cost air pollution monitors are increasingly being deployed to enrich knowledge about ambient air-pollution at high spatial and temporal resolutions. However, unlike regulatory-grade (FEM or FRM) instruments, universal quality standards for low-cost sensors are yet to be established and their da...

UnknownN6-methyladenosine mediates arsenite-induced human keratinocyte transformation by suppressing p53 activation.
N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant and reversible RNA modification, plays critical a role in tumorigenesis. However, whether m6A can regulate p53, a leading antitumor protein remains poorly understood. In this study, we explored the regulatory role of m...
