Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Strategies for enhancing sensitivity in lateral flow assays

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential for cost‐effective, rapid point‐of‐care diagnostics. However, conventional colourimetric LFAs often lack the sensitivity required for low‐abundance biomarkers. This review evaluates six enhancement strategies: flow modulation, sample preconcentration, advanced reporters, chemical signal amplification, structural

Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198—A Promising Strain for Studying Pathogenesis of Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Pulmonary Disease (NTM‐PD)

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we introduce a promising strain for studying pathogenesis of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM‐PD), Mycobacterium intracellulare M.i.198. M.i.198 was isolated from a patient with progressive Mycobacterium avium‐intracellulare complex pulmonary disease (MAC‐PD) in whom surgical operation was required to ...

Naturally Occurring ZCCHC3 Variants Modulate Antiretroviral Activity in Cynomolgus Macaques

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many mammalian cells restrict viral replication by utilizing various host restriction factors. We recently demonstrated that CCHC‐type zinc‐finger‐containing protein 3 (ZCCHC3) suppresses human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1) replication through multiple mechanisms.

Stretching Scarce Authorizing Legislation as Far as Possible: A Legislative History of the 340B Drug Pricing Program

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points The original purpose of the 340B program was to exempt Public Health Service Act funded clinics and state and local public hospitals from the inflationary best‐price component of the recently enacted Medicaid drug rebate program. The secondary purpose was to reduce drug prices for these clinics and hospitals in order to preserve and ...

Why Evidence Is Not Enough: Power, Politics, and a Strategy Shift for Public Health

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Public health has lost political influence because of a mismatch between the forms of power primarily deployed in this field—knowledge and moral authority—and the forms of power that currently shape societal rules and health outcomes—economic, political, ideological, and physical.

Stigma as a Social Determinant of Health: A Policy Classification Framework and Call to Action

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Stigma functions as a social determinant of health (SDOH), producing population health inequities through resource deprivation, social exclusion, constrained health care, physiological stress, and diminished agency—yet it lacks formal SDOH classification.
