The Association Between Antibiotic Use and the Incidence of Third-Generation Cephalosporin-Resistance in Escherichia coli Bloodstream Infections: An Ecological Study

Antibiotics
Background/Objectives: The COVID-19 period was marked by changes in antibiotic use and in the incidence of bacterial infections. We examined the association between antibiotic use and the proportion of Escherichia coli bloodstream infections (BSI) that ...

A Novel Perfused Full‐Thickness Human Skin Microphysiological System for Modeling Injury, Regeneration, Tumor Pathophysiology, and Therapeutics Development

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
What if human skin could remain fully alive and functional outside the body for weeks? A New Alternative Method (NAM) based on a vascularized full‐thickness skin microphysiological system achieves precisely this, preserving native vasculature, resident immunity, and metabolic activity for up to three weeks, while faithfully recapitulating radiation ...

Virulence factors are preserved within carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clades

Virulence
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is an important threat to hospitalized patients. The virulence of A. baumannii varies between strains and geographic locations, which is believed to be related to its genetic plasticity. A comprehensive

The Yield of One vs. Two Blood Cultures in Children: Under-Detection and Over-Testing

Antibiotics
We aimed to determine whether obtaining two blood cultures (BCs) instead of one improved the detection of bloodstream infections (BSIs) in children. For this descriptive study, we used surveillance data collected in 2019–2021 from all Israeli hospitals ...

Conjugated Porphyrin Polymer With Superior Charge Transfer for Photodynamic‐Immunomodulatory Prevention of CIED Infection in Diabetes

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Under NIR irradiation, PTCPP generates ROS to eliminate MRSA biofilms and promote M1 macrophage polarization for phagocytosis. After bacterial clearance, the material is phagocytosed by macrophages, shifting their polarization to M2 phenotype via metabolic reprogramming, which synergistically enhances anti‐infection therapy and wound healing.

A Naphthalimide‐Based NIR‐Emissive AIE Photosensitizer for Synergistic Apoptosis/Ferroptosis‐Mediated Antitumor Therapy and Broad‐Spectrum Bacterial Inactivation With Rapid Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An ionic naphthalimide AIE photosensitizer (PS), TPAPV‐NIM‐M, anchors to cellular and bacterial membranes, emits in the far‐red/near‐infrared (NIR) region, and efficiently generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) under white light. Its membrane‐localized photodynamic action drives apoptosis/ferroptosis‐mediated tumor suppression and broad‐spectrum ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.
