Timing of progression from Chlamydia trachomatis infection to pelvic inflammatory disease: a mathematical modelling study. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) results from the ascending spread of microorganisms from the vagina and endocervix to the upper genital tract. PID can lead to infertility, ectopic pregnancy and chronic pelvic pain. The timing of development

Post‐Mortem Nasal Swab Testing to Reveal Hidden Respiratory Pathogens: Unlocking Public Health Insights in Bangladesh

Medicine Advances, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 401-407, September 2026.
Respiratory deaths in Bangladesh are frequently assigned non‐specific causes because of limited diagnostic information. Through stakeholder consultations, key informant interviews, microbiologist consultations, and literature review, 11 priority respiratory pathogens were identified for potential detection using post‐mortem nasal swab testing and ...

De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

Lower Respiratory Microbiome Dysbiosis Is Associated With Poor Prognosis in Acute Severe Lower Respiratory Tract Infection

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Acute severe lower respiratory tract infection (asLRTI) present lower alpha‐diversity in lower respiratory tract microbiome (LRTM). Five clusters (C1–C5) were grouped, and cluster C3 was strongly associated with poor prognosis and reduced survival.

Chemokines in Alzheimer's Disease: Early Defence, Late Damage and the Impact of Sex and Infection

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 139, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Chemokines constitute a versatile signalling network maintaining homeostasis and glia–neuron communication in the healthy brain but become progressively dysregulated during aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). This review examines how chemokine systems transition from tightly regulated homeostatic signals to drivers of chronic neuroinflammation
