Will Memantine Exacerbate Seizures in People With Epilepsy? A Prospective Cohort Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate whether add‐on memantine would exacerbate seizures in people with epilepsy. Methods This was a prospective cohort study. People with epilepsy diagnosed with cognitive impairment were consecutively invited. Those who agreed were followed up for at least 24 weeks.

HIV-Associated Bacterial Pneumonia [PDF]

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2013
Community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CAP) remains one of the most common opportunistic infections in patients who are infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The risk of CAP increases as the CD4 cell count decreases. The common bacterial pathogens that cause CAP in HIV-infected persons are similar to those in HIV-uninfected individuals,

Life‐Threatening Bradycardia in Anti‐NMDA‐Receptor Encephalitis and a Novel Use for Permanent Pacing

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis (pNMDARE) is an autoantibody‐mediated disorder that can cause severe autonomic dysfunction, including symptomatic bradycardia and asystole. Dysautonomia can last for years, making it very challenging to manage.

Chemical Synthesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumannii Capsular Polysaccharide Fragments as Leads for Cross‐Protection

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A total of 16 chemically synthesized capsular polysaccharide (CPS) fragments related to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumannii were analyzed by glycan microarray. Comparative screening revealed three conserved epitopes that act as cross‐protective vaccine lead candidates against multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacterial ...

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Oxygen and ROS Delivery for Infected Wound Healing and Future Prospects

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacterial infection is a major driver of delayed wound healing and postsurgical readmissions; with rising antibiotic resistance, solid peroxide–releasing biomaterials offer sustained delivery of ROS/O2 for antimicrobial control and microenvironmental modulation.

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.
