Awareness of Appropriate Antibiotic Use in Primary Care for Influenza-Like Illness: Evidence of Improvement from UK Population-Based Surveys.

TL;DR: In this paper, three sequential online surveys of independent representative samples of adults in the United Kingdom investigated expectations for, and consumption of, antibiotics for influenza-like illnesses (ILI) (May/June 2015, Oct/Nov 2016 and Mar 2017).

Hash-based core genome multi-locus sequencing typing for Clostridium difficile

TL;DR: A refinement to core-genome multi-locus sequence typing (cgMLST) where alleles at each gene are reproducibly converted to a unique hash, or short string of letters (hash-cg MLST), which avoids the resource-intensive need for a single centralised database of sequentially-numbered alleles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Construction of a novel shuttle vector for use in Haemophilus influenzae and H. parainfluenzae

TL;DR: A shuttle vector, pEJ6, which transfers genes between Escherichia coli and H. influenzae and is functional for allelic replacement and mutant complementation and will be useful for investigating gene function in Haemophilus spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

An end-to-end heterogeneous graph attention network for Mycobacterium tuberculosis drug-resistance prediction

TL;DR: In this article, a deep graph learning method based on heterogeneous graph attention network (HGAT-AMR) was proposed to predict anti-tuberculosis (TB) drug resistance, which is able to accommodate incomplete phenotypic profiles, as well as provide 'attention scores' of genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms both at a population level and for individual samples.
