A Genomic Catalog of Migratory Microbiomes from Wild Birds across China's Habitats

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Migratory birds play an important role in the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR); however, gaps in surveillance data from vital regions along migratory flyways across China limit the detection of emergent threats. Here, we assembled 340 metagenomes from 52 bird species covering 11 provincial administrative districts in China, presenting ...

Pharmacokinetics of dolutegravir, tenofovir and lamivudine during venous–venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV‐ECMO): A case report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 5, Page 1487-1492, May 2026.
While providing potentially life‐saving cardiorespiratory support for critically ill patients, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may detrimentally affect pharmacokinetic (PK) performance and concurrent drug efficacy and safety. We describe a patient with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in the context of acquired immunodeficiency ...
