This systematic review and meta-analysis provide an overview of bacterial causative agents for otitis media and antimicrobial resistance patterns against major otitis media pathogens. Out of a total of 180 records that were identified initially (both from database and manual searches), duplicates...

The article discusses the issues of assessing the impact of harmful pollutants generated as a result of the activities of industrial enterprises on the green spaces of industrial territories, as well as ways to reduce their negative impact. The analysis of the main sources of atmospheric air poll...

We explored the efficiency of Festuca species flowering dates from Reading University herbarium (RNG) as a representative of the British Isles plant populations by comparing it to the actual flowering data sets from the Chinnor data set. In order to determine the significant value of the comparis...

The human oral cavity harbors one of the most complex and diverse microbial ecosystems in the body, comprising numerous bacterial genera that exist in dynamic equilibrium. Disruption of this balance, particularly under the influence of systemic conditions and lifestyle factors, has been associate...

Particularly in societies, chronic and degenerative diseases have emerged as significant global problems in the fields of healthcare and research.
