The Global Antimicrobial Resistance Trends of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> and Influencing Factors by Haitao Yuan, Jie Xu, Ying Wang, Yuan Li, Yuqing Hao, Jinzhao Long, Fang Liu, Jingyuan Zhu, Haiyan Yang

“…The Spearman correlation results indicated that the human development index (HDI), antibiotic consumption, and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) were significantly associated with the AMR of <i>S. aureus</i>, and these factors played a crucial role in the emergence and development of <i>S. aureus</i> AMR. The results of structural equation modeling showed that the HDI significantly promoted an increase in antibiotic consumption, thereby indirectly enhancing the AMR of <i>S. aureus</i>. …”

Brachial Plexopathy in Head and Neck Cancer Potentially Related to LET-Dependent RBE by Abanob Hanna, Anthony Casper, Roi Dagan, Hardev S. Grewal, Jiyeon Park, Eric D. Brooks, Erik Traneus, Lars Glimelius, Perry B. Johnson, Mohammad Saki, Yawei Zhang, Twyla R. Willoughby, Julie A. Bradley, Jackson Browne, Mark E. Artz

“…Proton beam therapy for head and neck cancers traditionally employs a fixed relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1, which may underestimate actual biological effects in critical structures. This study evaluates how Linear Energy Transfer (LET) optimization could potentially prevent radiation-induced brachial plexopathy (RIBP). (1) Case presentation: A 65-year-old male with stage IVA p16-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma received pencil-beam-scanning intensity-modulated proton therapy with concurrent cisplatin. …”
