Introduction: The increasing incidence of infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria is considered a global health problem. This study aimed to investigate this resistance in Gram-negative bacteria isolated from patients hospitalized in North-Lebanon. Methodology: All isolates were identified using the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was achieved using disk diffusion, E-test and Broth microdilution methods. Phenotypic ...

The novel coronavirus-associated ARDS (COVID-19 ARDS) often requires invasive mechanical ventilation. A spectrum of atypical ARDS with different phenotypes (high vs low static compliance) has been hypothesized in COVID-19.We conducted a retrospective analysis to identify respiratory mechanics in COVID-19 ARDS. Berlin definition was used to categorize severity of ARDS. Correlational analysis using t test, chi-square test, ANOVA test, and Pearson correlation was used to identify relationship between ...

Background:The issue of when, how, and whether to disclose full information about cancer diagnosis and prognosis to patients is still debated in some parts of the world, including Lebanon.Despite formal academic emphasis on a larger autonomy for Lebanese patients in deciding the course of their disease, there has been no apparent impact on either clinical practices nor public expectations.The topic of full disclosure is rarely if ever discussed in open fora, or in mass media channels in Lebanon. ...

In recent years, the prevalence of mobile communication has given rise to a new writing style that is an amalgam of oral and written modes. The rapid growth of Textisms arouses curiosity, fear, and perplexity among people. In Lebanon, some educators complain about the propagation of texting and claim that it is becoming harmful for their students. Thus, this study examines the nature of this new trend by describing its linguistic features and comparing it with oral speech through the application ...

Hydroseeding is a restoration technique commonly used in varied restoration projects. This literature review, encompassing about 100 published research papers from 1990 to 2020, revealed numerous limitations in a semi-arid Mediterranean environment. Challenges facing hydroseeding as a restoration tool in semi-arid Mediterranean environments were evaluated by analyzing different factors affecting ecological and technical levels. This issue was approached by sorting variables under either biotic or ...

An 18 months old boy with TOF benefited from a BTS. Deep cyanosis reappeared 48 hours later and continuous flow profile of the shunt could not be identified by Doppler echocardiography. At catheterization, angiogram confirmed complete shunt occlusion. The shunt was recanalized using a coronary guide wire and a 4mm diameter balloon. The SpO2 improved and repeated Doppler echocardiography showed the patency of the shunt during follow-up. Four days later, he developed a severe febrile pneumopathy due ...

Solar energy market is growing rapidly and presenting a high energy share. We can find many applications of solar energy harvesting systems like Photovoltaics, Dual Face Photovoltaics, Concentrated Photovoltaics, and Concentrated Solar Power. All these systems need tracking technology to increase their efficiency or total output. We present in this paper an innovative sensorless tracking algorithm for PV panels where we track the sun’s position without using a sensor. The algorithm has been implemented ...

Multidrug resistant bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, are considered as a major public health threat, particularly those which are responsible for nosocomial infections. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanism of carbapenem resistance and the clonal relationship of carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii (CRAB) isolates of a probable outbreak in the intensive care unit (ICU) of Saydet Zgharta University Medical Center (SZUMC), in north Lebanon.

This article addresses the difficulty of introducing and establishing multidisciplinarity in environmental research within and among the South-Mediterranean environmental research national communities. Moreover, this work attends to assess the internal and external structural factors treating such complex issues in rural, urban, and peri-urban contexts as well as the connections and dependencies of these factors. Throughout a series of programs, projects, and actions that involved scientists and ...
