Skin microbiome engineering: Challenges and opportunities in skin diseases treatment

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The skin microbiome plays a crucial role in skin health, influencing barrier integrity, immune responses, and disease susceptibility. Various interventions can reshape the microbiome, broadly categorized into targeted and untargeted approaches. Targeted strategies, such as phage therapy, engineered bacteria, and phage lysins, selectively modulate ...

Development of a Multiplexed qPCR Kit for the Detection of Bloodstream Infection

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
The paper presents a novel multiplexed PCR kit designed for the rapid and accurate detection of pathogens causing bloodstream infection (BSI) through the microbial cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) of plasma. This innovative diagnostic tool, capable of identifying pathogens within approximately 1.5 h, shows a high degree of accuracy (90.48% consistency with ...

Membrane Filtration of Sonication Fluid—A Promising Adjunctive Method for the Diagnosis of Low‐Grade Infection in Presumed Aseptic Nonunion

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Treatment guidelines for fracture nonunion differ based on the presence or absence of infection. Low‐grade infections without preoperative clinical signs of infection are difficult to distinguish from aseptic cases. Membrane filtration of sonication fluid (MF) has been shown to be a useful method for identifying septic nonunion. Therefore, the

New insights into coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2019
Abstract Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are a typical example of a group of microorganisms for which the recent evolution of laboratory technology and medicine has dramatically modified their significance in medical practice. Confusion regarding the identification of clinical isolates which was a barrier to determining a clear association ...

No significant difference in skin contamination during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with and without preoperative skin cleaning

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This prospective study aimed to assess whether preoperative antiseptic skin cleansing reduces bacterial contamination and surgical site infections (SSI) following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). We hypothesized that antiseptic cleaning would lower bacterial load, reducing contamination and early infections.
