3D Printed Mesh Geometry Modulates Immune Response and Interface Biology in Mouse and Sheep Model: Implications for Pelvic Floor Surgery

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 11, March 20, 2025.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a significant health challenge for women, especially with the lack of optimal surgical options post‐withdrawal of synthetic transvaginal meshes. The study pioneers degradable melt electrowrite vaginal implants with precise 22.5° angles and specific porosity. These configurations significantly influence macrophage behavior

Online test administration results in students selecting more responses to multiple-choice-multiple-response items [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Multiple-choice multiple-response (MCMR) items (i.e., multiple-choice questions for which more than one response may be selected) can be a valuable tool for assessment. Like traditional multiple-choice single-response questions, they are easy to score, but MCMR items can provide more information about student thinking by probing multiple reasoning ...

Pharmacokinetics of Tenofovir following Intravaginal and Intrarectal Administration of Tenofovir Gel to Rhesus Macaques [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2012
ABSTRACT Tenofovir gel (1%) is being developed as a microbicide for the prevention of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and has been shown to reduce transmission to women by 39%. The gel also prevents infection in macaques when applied intravaginally or intrarectally prior to challenge with simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV)

Engineered Tissue Models to Decode Host–Microbiota Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Host–Microbiota interactions in the human body. Created in BioRender. Ghezzi, C. (2025) https://BioRender.com/ihivskg. Abstract A mutualistic co‐evolution exists between the host and its associated microbiota in the human body. Bacteria establish ecological niches in various tissues of the body, locally influencing their physiology and functions, but ...
