Risk factors for central line–associated bloodstream infections
To carry out surveillance of central line associated bloodstream infections in a Pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and determine associated risk factors.This prospective study was conducted over 1.5 years in the PICU. CDC definitions for these infections were followed and associated risk factors were identified.Of 265 enrolled children with central ...

Central-line associated bloodstream infections at a tertiary care hospital
Introduction: The Central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) are the bloodstream infections where central line was in situ for more than 48 hours from the time of event and the line was in place on the date of event or before that and are ...

Preventing central line-associated bloodstream infections CLABSI
MORTALITY FOR central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) is 12% to 25%, making them among the most deadly of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). CLABSIS are also expensive: the average cost per case is upwards of $26,000.1,2 The good news is that the incidence of CLABSI in ICU ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...
