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

Effect of Bacille Calmette–Guérin vaccination on immune responses to SARS‐CoV‐2 and COVID‐19 vaccination

Clinical & Translational Immunology
Objectives Bacille Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccination has off‐target effects on disease risk for unrelated infections and immune responses to vaccines. This study aimed to determine the immunomodulatory effects of BCG vaccination on immune responses to ...

Investigating Tuberculosis Dynamics Under Various Control Strategies: A Comprehensive Analysis Using Real Statistical Data

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the present investigation, a mathematical model with vaccination, treatment, and environmental impact under real data is presented. Initially, we present the model without any interventions, followed by an examination of its equilibrium points.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.
