Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

Biofilm Associated Persistence and Drug Tolerance in Mycobacteria Within Host Microenvironments
ABSTRACT Biofilms formed by mycobacteria, particularly Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), represent a major challenge in tuberculosis (TB) treatment due to their highly organized structure and their capacity to induce phenotypic drug tolerance. These three‐dimensional bacterial aggregates are embedded in a self‐produced extracellular matrix that ...

Necrotising Soft Tissue Infections: A Single Center's Case Series
ABSTRACT Necrotising soft tissue infection (NSTI) is a progressive disease with a time‐dependent prognosis; if not promptly treated, it can lead to significant morbidity as well as mortality. Early and aggressive surgical treatment is mandatory for appropriate management. This study reports the diagnostic and therapeutic pathway, surgical treatment and

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infant Mortality in Sri Lanka: A Retrospective Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Objective Sepsis is a major cause of mortality among children, with the highest burden evident in neonates and young infants, particularly, in resource‐constrained healthcare settings. Despite this burden, there are insufficient published data to delineate the epidemiology of neonatal sepsis from many of these settings.
