“…High-throughput PCR of over 19,000 fish showed that ENV is widely distributed in the NE Pacific Ocean and was detected in 12 of 16 tested species, including in 27% of herring, 38% of anchovy, 17% of pollock, and 13% of sand lance. Despite frequent detection in marine fish, ENV prevalence was significantly lower in fish from freshwater (0.03%), as assessed with a generalized linear mixed effects model (p = 5.5 × 10(−8)). …”

“…Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a fatal parasitic zoonotic worldwide disease, which transmits to humans by the infected Phlebotomine sand fly bite. The common form of VL in Iran is the Mediterranean type with the causative agent of Leishmania infantum, whose main reservoirs are stray and domesticated dogs. …”

“…In the case of a higher printing speed, a lower surface roughness was created due to the higher kinetic energy of the sand particles and the higher force applied. Microstructural investigations revealed that the amount of unhydrated cement particles was higher in the case of a lower inter-layer interval (i.e., 10 min). …”

“…Results showed that rational high filling and passing ability of fresh self-compacting SFRC was ensured by increasing the binder to coarse-aggregate ratio and the sand ratio in the mix proportions; the autogenous and drying shrinkages of hardened self-compacting SFRC reduced by 22.2% to 3.2% and by 18.5% to 7.3% compared to those of the SCC without expansive agent at a curing age of 180 d, although the expansion effect of expansive agent decreased with the increasing volume fraction of steel fiber; the mechanical properties, including the compressive strength, the splitting tensile strength, and the modulus of elasticity increased with the incorporation of an expansive agent and steel fibers, which met the design requirements.…”
