Pharmacometric evaluation of pre‐referral rectal artesunate in children with severe malaria
Aims Parenteral artesunate is the preferred first‐line treatment for severe malaria. Pre‐referral rectal artesunate suppositories are recommended where parenteral treatment is inaccessible. In this study, we compared dihydroartemisinin exposure and model‐predicted early parasite clearance following rectal artesunate and intravenous artesunate in ...

Suppression of adaptive immunity to heterologous antigens during plasmodium infection through hemozoin-induced failure of dendritic cell function [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) are central to the initiation and regulation of the adaptive immune response during infection. Modulation of DC function may therefore allow evasion of the immune system by pathogens.

A hepatitis C avidity test for determining recent and past infections in both plasma and dried blood spots [PDF]
DBS testing has been used successfully to detect HCV antibody positive individuals. Determining how long someone has been infected is important for surveillance initiatives. Antibody avidity is a method that can be used to calculate recency of infection.

Neurovascular coupling in bone regeneration: Mechanisms, advanced biomaterials and challenges
This figure illustrates various material strategies for neurovascularized bone regeneration, including electroactive scaffolds, ion‐loaded materials, drug delivery systems, surface modifications, cells/cell products, growth factors, and peptides. These approaches aim to synergistically promote the regeneration of neural, vascular, and bone tissues ...

Anaemia in acute HIV-1 subtype C infection. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The high prevalence of anaemia and the increased morbidity and mortality associated with anaemia during AIDS has been well described yet there has been little information about anaemia and changes in haemoglobin levels during acute and early ...

LSPR biosensing enables rapid, sensitive, and low‐sample‐volume detection of biomarkers, with broad applications in diagnosing cancer, infectious, and chronic diseases. Advances in nanostructure design, micro/nanofabrication, and microfluidic integration have expanded the potential of LSPR sensors in biomedical diagnostics.

Peripheral cytokine responses to Trichuris muris reflect those occurring locally at the site of infection [PDF]
The study of human cellular immune responses to parasite infection under field conditions is very complex. Often, the only practical site from which to sample the cellular responses is the peripheral blood.
