Abstract: Introduction Pneumonia severity index (PSI) is a prognostic index used for estimating the possibility of death due to community-acquired pneumonia. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, essential for calcium and phosphate homeostasis. Vitamin D also has antimicrobial properties and according to recent studies, its deficiency may be correlated to an increased frequency of respiratory infections. The serum concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) is the best vitamin D status index reflecting vitamin D produc… Show more

“…Thus, eliminating immunological dysregulation and immunosuppression in patients with CNS injuries may provide a more feasible therapeutic solution than targeting MDR microorganisms and eliminating these microorganisms. The pivotal role of immunity in acquiring essential nutrition from the human microbiota (55)(56)(57) should also be considered. The human microbiome is essential to the health and wellbeing of individuals, as they are the indispensable source of metabolites for the body (57).…”

“…In recent years, an ultrasensitive immunoassay system capable of measuring down to a concentration of pg/ mL or less has been put into practical use 22,23 . Immune complex transfer enzyme immunoassay (ICT-EIA) 24 , which is one of the methods to realize ultrasensitive immunoassay detection, can be adapted to high-throughput immunoassay systems used in clinical settings [25][26][27][28] . Using antibody-coated magnetic particles to increase capture efficiency, immune complex transfer enables interfering background signal to be eliminated, thereby enhancing analytical sensitivity.…”
