Introduction Offshore wind farms (OWFs) are vital for sustainable energy. The underwater foundations of those wind turbines provide a complex structure that creates new habitats and attracts fishes. However, whether OWFs had the same ecological function as purpose-built artificial reef (AR) and how they alter the original fish community remain unclear. Methods To evaluate the spatial and temporal variations in fish assemblages...

Endozoicomonas is an omnipresent marine bacterial genus, associated with various marine organisms, that contributes to host health, nutrient cycling and disease resistance. Nonetheless, its genomic features remain poorly characterised due to a paucity of high‐quality genomes. In this study, we sequenced 5 novel Endozoicomonas strains and re‐sequenced 1 known strain to improve genomic resolution. By integrating these 6 high‐qua...

Background Infections caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae are common and result in high mortality rates. In vitro studies demonstrated the potency of cefoperazone/sulbactam (CPZ/SUL) against Klebsiella pneumoniae . However, the clinical efficacy of CPZ/SUL for the treatment of K. pneumoniae bacteremia has not been studied. Objectives This study aimed to associate the clinical outcomes of patients with bacteremia with the minimal i...

Hemodynamic parameters derived from pulse wave analysis have been shown to predict long-term outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF). Here we aimed to develop a deep-learning based algorithm that incorporates pressure waveforms for the identification and risk stratification of patients with HF. The first study, with a case–control study design to address data imbalance issue, included 431 subjects with HF exhibiting typic...

Incense burning releases heavy particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ), known to have adverse effects on human health. Long-term exposure to PM and NO 2 increases inflammatory cytokine levels and can induce respiratory diseases. This study examined the association between incense burning exposure and the health status, especially inflammatory biomarkers, of temple workers and volunteers in Taiwan. The longitudinal...
