The dysregulation of innate immunity by Porphyromonas gingivalis in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 3, Page 328-348, March 2026.
Abstract The etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains under active debate. In this perspective, we explore the hypothesis that a primarily infection‐caused chronic dysregulation and weakening of human innate immunity via the underexpression, degradation, and inactivation of innate immune proteins necessary for direct antimicrobial effects and ...

Torque Teno Virus Levels During Viral Respiratory Infections: The Interplay With Immune Dysregulation and Coagulopathy Biomarkers

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Torque teno virus (TTV) is a ubiquitous, nonenveloped DNA virus of the Anelloviridae family and a proposed surrogate marker of immune competence. Although nonpathogenic, its replication reflects host immune status and is associated with immune dysregulation during respiratory viral infections (RVIs).

The Burden of Respiratory Syncytial Virus in Children With Acute Otitis Media: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Acute otitis media (AOM) affects over 709 million individuals globally each year, more than half of whom are children < 5 years. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading viral cause of pediatric respiratory illness. We aimed to estimate the burden of RSV in children < 5 years with AOM Methods We performed a systematic review ...

Awareness of Microbiological Safety in Playgrounds Amid Rising Antibiotic Resistance

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Playgrounds are identified as reservoirs for antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, posing a potential public health risk. Despite the existence of safety regulations for playground equipment, microbiological safety is treated superficially. Global strategies, including hygiene practices and antibacterial materials, are needed to reduce the spread of ...
