Flexible wearable electronics for cardiovascular monitoring from surface signals to deep physiological insights

FlexMat, EarlyView.
This review organizes flexible wearable electronics for cardiovascular monitoring into four interconnected information layers: surface electrophysiology, hemodynamic sensing, vascular imaging, and biofluid biomarker analysis. This framework clarifies how electrical rhythm, vascular loading, structural and flow‐related features, and biochemical states ...

Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome: Research Progress and Precision Diagnosis‐Therapy Under the Integrated Neuro–Immune–Metabolic–Microbiota Axis Framework

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is increasingly recognized as a systemic disorder rather than a purely local prostate disease. The diagram illustrates the transition from the traditional local prostate‐centered model to a multi‐axis systemic framework involving clinical heterogeneity, local prostatic inflammation, systemic ...

Cytotoxic and Genotoxic Effects in Buccal Cells of Sandstone Quarry Workers

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mineral extraction poses significant occupational health risks, particularly from respirable crystalline silica exposure. Sandstone quarrying generates substantial dust, yet evidence of its genotoxic effects remains limited. This study investigated cytogenotoxic damage in sandstone quarry workers from southern Brazil using the buccal ...

BCG-INDUCED PRO-INFLAMMATORY PHENOTYPE OF MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS: EFFECT OF IMMUNE MODULATORS

Туберкулез и болезни лёгких, 2016
In case of mycobacterial infection the granulomatous infiltration foci contain the significant amount of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), which functional phenotype and respective function in anti-tuberculosis immune defense remain unknown.Goal of the study:

The influence of previous exposure to environmental mycobacteria on the interferon-gamma response to bacille Calmette-Guérin vaccination in southern England and northern Malawi.

, 2006
We report a large study of the effect of BCG vaccination on the in vitro 6-day whole blood interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) response to antigens from eight species of mycobacteria among schoolchildren in south-eastern England, where bacille Calmette-Guérin ...

Selection bias: neighbourhood controls and controls selected from those presenting to a Health Unit in a case control study of efficacy of BCG revaccination. [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND: In most case control studies the hardest decision is the choice of the control group, as in the ideal control group the proportion exposed is the same as in the population that produced the cases.

Use of a Bacteriophage Lysin to Control Axillary Malodor

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Axillary malodor is primarily caused by bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus hominis, which metabolize apocrine secretions into volatile compounds. Traditional deodorants contain antiseptics that can disrupt the skin microbiome and cause irritation. Alternative methods of odor control are being sought but so far without success. We

When Treatment Meets Natural History: Understanding Early Dermatitis‐Related Adverse Events in Systemic Atopic Dermatitis Trials

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biologics and Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors have transformed the management of atopic dermatitis (AD), yet some patients experience early worsening of disease activity during treatment initiation. In clinical trials, these events are typically recorded as treatment‐emergent adverse events (TEAEs), most commonly coded as “atopic dermatitis”. We
