Purpose The aim of this study was to explore the clinical, microbiological, and molecular characteristics of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia bacteraemia, outcomes, and risk factors associated with mortality. Methods This was a nationwide retrospective cohort study of patients with S. maltophilia bacteraemia during the period between January 2017 and December 2021. MIC Test Strips (Liofilchem, Roseto degli Abruzzi, Italy) were use...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Distributed optical fibre sensing (DOFS) is a technology that enables continuous, real-time measurements of a range of environmental parameters along the length of a fibre optic cable. In this article, we review the recently emerged applications of DOFS techniques in physical oceanography and offer a perspective on the technology's potential for future growth within the field. The introduction of DOFS to physical oceanography...
Cercospora leaf spot (CLS), caused by Cercospora beticola , is a severe threat to sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris ) production in Egypt’s Nile Delta and poses resistance and ecological problems to synthetic fungicides. This study investigates Alhagi maurorum (camelthorn), an endemic medicinal shrub of arid regions, and evaluates it as a sustainable plant-sourced biofungicide for integrated CLS management. Following molecular confir...
The combination of probiotics and microalgae has positive effects on animal productivity and health. This study investigated the impact of two levels of a combination of Limnospira platensis (Spirulina) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (1:1) (SY) on milk yield, milk composition, and fatty acid profile, rumen fermentation, blood metabolites and immunity, and kids' performance of lactating goats. Thirty-six lactating goats were divi...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disproportionately affects women and carriers of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE4), yet little is known about how sex and APOE interact to influence white matter (WM) integrity during disease progression. We integrated diffusion MRI and matched blood transcriptomic data to investigate these interactions and their underlying biological mechanisms. WM microstructure was quantified using diffusion te...
Zooplankton response to eutrophication in multiple aquatic habitats using remote sensing approachNARA Subscribed
Ten surface water samples were collected from five distinct aquatic environments; the Mediterranean Sea, Estuary, Barge Canal, Nile River and Manzala Lake. Each water body possesses unique ecological characteristics. Zooplankton communities were analyzed across these environments to assess biodiversity and eutrophication status. Results revealed that trophic conditions varied significantly according to the type of water body....
Continued monitoring of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) residues in inland watercourses contributes indirectly to Sustainable Development Goal 14 by preserving aquatic biodiversity and ecosystems. Therefore, the current work aims to monitor PCBs in water courses of Giza, Al-Qaliobiah, and Al-Gharbiah Egyptian Governorates and assess their risk using various tools. The highest water temperature was 32.2 °C et al.-Gharbiah during...
