BMC Infectious Diseases, United Kingdom . 2021. Vol. 21. Article 216.
Abotsi R., Nicol M., Odland J. Ø., Dube F.
HIV-associated chronic lung disease (CLD) is common among children living with HIV (CLWH) in sub-Saharan Africa, including those on antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, the pathogenesis of CLD and its possible association with microbial determinants remain poorly understood. We investigated the prevalence, and antibiotic susceptibility of Streptococcus pneumoniae (SP), Staphylococcus aureus (SA), Haemophilus influenzae (HI), and Moraxella catarrhalis (MC) among CLWH (established on ART) who had CLD (CLD+), or not (CLD-) in Zimbabwe and Malawi.

Abstract
Significance. The epidemiological, clinical, and socioeconomic effects of healthcare digitalization are actively discussed in the scientific literature. Less attention has been paid to changes in the organization of healthcare resulting from the introduction of digital technologies. These changes have not been the subject of specific research. However, digital technologies is becoming a driver for the ...

This article examines the conceptualization of Chinese soft power and the implementation
of the PRC’s soft power strategy in Africa. First introduced into academic
discourse by American political scientist Joseph Nye in 1990, the concept was subsequently
adopted and critically re-evaluated by Chinese political theorists, most notably
Wang Huning, Yan Xuetong, Yang Shengping and Zhang Guozuo. The term has ...

This article undertakes a socio-philosophical analysis of a situation in which the place of the Other within the structure of subjective experience is occupied by an algorithmic agent – an entity that simulates understanding yet remains devoid of genuine subjectivity. To investigate this configuration, the author turns to psychiatric practice as a representative case study: ...

The M23 armed group’s resurgence in eastern DRC (2021–2026) has destabilized Central Africa and triggered a severe Kinshasa-Kigali crisis. This study explores the causes of M23’s return, its evolution into a quasi-state entity, and the failure of international conflict resolution. Based on UN and NGO reports, and applying the rebel governance framework, the analysis reveals ...

Introduction:
Understanding how we perceive and interpret the movements of other living beings is fundamental to social interaction, survival, and navigating our dynamic environment. Traditional studies of biological motion perception have predominantly employed simplified stimuli, such as point-light displays, which sacrifice ecological validity for experimental control.
Methods:
To overcome this limitation, we created a novel stimulus set featuring ...

Whole-slide histology images (WSIs) can exceed 100 k × 100 k pixels, making direct pixel-level segmentation infeasible and requiring patch-level classification as a practical alternative for downstream WSI segmentation. However, most approaches either treat patches independently, ignoring spatial and biological context, or rely on deep graph models prone to oversmoothing and loss of local tissue ...
