Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus Prevalence in European Tick Populations
Objectives. Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) poses a significant public health threat in Europe. This systematic review investigates TBEV prevalence and expansion across 26 countries to evaluate shifting transmission risks and the emergence of new microfoci. Material and Methods. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, PubMed and Scopus were searched for studies published between 2004 and 2024. To address methodological heterogeneity, data were cat…
Antimicrobial Use
Objectives. This study aimed to assess the knowledge of health workers in the Republic of Moldova regarding antimicrobial administration and its environmental implications, including wastewater contamination, in order to identify educational gaps and support integrated One Health policies. Material and methods. A cross-sectional survey was conducted between June and August 2022 among 1093 HCWs. Descriptive statistics and stratified analyses were …
Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of Medical Students From Middle-Income Countries Regarding Climate Change
Objectives. Assessment of knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding climate change, its causes and consequences, and its impact on health among medical students in the Republic of Moldova. Material and methods. A quantitative study was conducted from September to March 2022. The study sample consisted of 606 medical students with an average age of 22.5 years, of whom 59.1% were women, in their 5th to 6th year of studies at Nicolae Testemițanu…
The Use of Bacteriophages in the Treatment of Staphylococcal Infection
Aim of study. The current rate of increase in the number of antimicrobial-resistant infections is poised to become the leading global cause of loss of human life. The limited discovery of new antibiotics necessitates investment in alternative solutions. Bacteriophages, viruses that target bacteria, offer a potent alternative approach to combating bacterial infections. One area of modern microbiology and biotechnology that has garnered significant…
Micro-test system for rapid isolation and identification of Candida species in urinary tract infections
Objectives. We tried to create a culture medium and a method used to rapidly isolate and identify the yeasts of Candida genus. Material and Methods. The isolation and identification of Candida genus yeasts have been accomplished using the micro-test system alongside the classical method. The strains of reference were collected from the Bacteriological Laboratory of the National Centre for Public Health. Results. Choosing the culture medium for a …
