Do isolation rooms reduce the rate of nosocomial infections in the pediatric intensive care unit?
Our preliminary analysis suggests a possible beneficial effect of single isolation rooms in reducing NI rate in the PICU. Hence, the influence of room isolation on NIs in pediatric intensive care warrants further investigation.
Collectively, these results indicate that F20 induces osteoblast differentiation with a pattern similar to that mediated by the BMP2 signaling pathway. As our previous data also showed that the FN-derived oligopeptide improved wound healing, we suggest that F20 might serve as a therapeutic biomolecule to facilitate periodontal tissue regeneration.
