Overall, ZenoFishDb v1.1 enables researchers to effectively search, list, and visualize different technical and biological attributes of zebrafish xenotransplantation studies particularly focusing on the new trends that make use of reporters, RNA interference, overexpression, or mutant gene constructs of transplanted cancer cells, stem cells, and PDXs, as well as distinguished host modifications.Aims mcr-1 and blaNDM-1 co-harboring isolates have been reported, usually reside on different plasmids, suggesting co-transfer possibility of the two genes from separate donors to the same recipient strain. This study aims at screening and characterization of mcr-1 carrying Enterobacteriaceae in Northern China, and studying the transfer ability of mcr-1 alone and in company with blaNDM-1 from a second donor. Results Three Escherichia coli strains and one Klebsiella pneumoniae strain carrying mcr-1 gene were screened out from 1992 isolates in our study. Co-existence of multiple resistance genes was found in the mcr-1-carrying strains, but none of them carried blaNDM-1. One E. coli demonstrated an single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (A-G) at -10 region of mcr-1, and one E. coli showed 2 SNPs (G-T and G-A) in the Shine-Dalgarno sequence-like region of mcr-1. The mcr-1 gene was located on plasmids of about 33-276 kb, and capable of transferring alone in three out of four mcr-1-positive isolates by conjugation. Co-transfer ability analysis demonstrated that mcr-1 from E. coli 13-68, which could not be transferred alone to E. coli C600, was successfully transferred in company with blaNDM-1 from K. pneumoniae ATCC BAA-2146. Conclusions mcr-1 showed low incidence in our Enterobacteriaceae isolates. Co-transfer ability of mcr-1 and blaNDM-1 from separate donors provides direct evidence for the emergence of the mcr-1 and blaNDM-1 co-harboring isolates.e-Prescription systems are key components and drivers of digital health. They can enhance the safety of the patients, and are gaining popularity in health care systems around the world. Yet, there is little knowledge on comparative international analysis of e-Prescription systems' architecture and digital security. We report, in this study, original findings from a comparative analysis of the e-Prescription systems in eight different countries, namely, Canada, United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Spain, Japan, Sweden, and Denmark. We surveyed the databases related to pharmacies, eHealth, e-Prescriptions, and related digital health websites for each country, and their system architectures. We also compared the digital security and privacy protocols in place within and across these digital systems. We evaluated the systems' authentication protocols used by pharmacies to verify patients' identities during the medication dispensing process. Furthermore, we examined the supporting systems/services used to manage patients' medication histories and enhance patients' medication safety. Taken together, we report, in this study, original comparative findings on the limitations and challenges of the surveyed systems as well as in adopting e-Prescription systems. While the present study was conducted before the onset of COVID-19, e-Prescription systems have become highly relevant during the current pandemic and hence, a deeper understanding of the country systems' architecture and digital security that can help design effective strategies against the pandemic. e-Prescription systems can help reduce physical contact and the risk of exposure to the virus, as well as the wait times in pharmacies, thus enhancing patient safety and improving planetary health.On-road freight is a significant source of air pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. The resulting economic damages can cross borders through processes of atmospheric fate and transport, regardless of whether that freight serves local or regional demand. Understanding patterns of freight demand and atmospheric processes can thus inform inter-jurisdictional efforts to mitigate multipollutant damages. We quantify how different freight trips across 49 census divisions in the Province of Ontario, Canada create an economic burden on downwind US receptors. Tamoxifen price We apply an integrated modeling approach combining a travel demand model, a mobile emissions simulator, and marginal damages from emissions. Economic damages include the increased risk of premature death from PM2.5 related to primary PM2.5 (represented by damages from inert primary PM2.5), NOX, SO2, and NH3, and the global effects of climate change from greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, N2O). Over 90% of the $1.4 billion (2010USD) in transboundary air pollutant damagImplications On-road freight movement in Ontario can yield billions of dollars in annual economic damages to US residents through its effects on air pollution and climate change. We use an integrated modeling approach combining an on-road freight travel demand, mobile emissions, and marginal damages of emissions to quantify and study these economic damages. Regional freight contributes approximately 90% of damages, with one major freight corridor, the ON-401 expressway, contributing 59%. Most damages derive from emissions of NOx and amount to millions to tens of millions of dollars in annual damages across major Eastern US cities. Thus, targeting NOx from freight movements along the ON-401 expressway could avoid millions of damages annually in eastern US cities.Wearable powered robotic exoskeleton can provide high repetitions and high-intensity gait training. It can promote a sense of well-being when the user is in upright posture to walk around different environment. We present a case of a lady with progressive multiple sclerosis who received 15 sessions of robotic exoskeleton training. Post training, she demonstrated improvement in lower limb strength, sense of well-being and self-esteem that led to improved transfer ability, increased social outings and better quality of life (QOL). Previously, she was depressed and reluctant to go out for social activities. This case suggests the potential of robotic exoskeleton to enhance QOL in people with mobility challenges.
