ABSTRACT Background and Aims Lymphatic filariasis (LF) and associated chronic wounds are of public health concern worldwide. Despite the significant burden of lymphatic filariasis (LF) and its associated chronic wounds, the fungal component of the wound microbiome remains poorly understood. Previous research has primarily focused on bacterial pathogens,

Severe Pneumonia Caused by Toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans Infection, Japan
Corynebacterium ulcerans infection was recently recognized as a zoonosis. We present 2 cases of severe pneumonia complicated by diffuse pseudomembrane formation on the bronchus caused by C. ulcerans–producing diphtheria toxin.

Abstract We hypothesized that variants in inflammasome‐related genes could influence susceptibility to gestational malaria (GM). To test this, we conducted an association study in a cohort of pregnant women from a malaria‐endemic region in northern Brazil, assessing whether specific functional single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in inflammasome genes ...

Direct PCR: Alternative Diagnostic Method for Diagnosis of Diphtheria Rapidly, Easily and Cost Effective [PDF]
Some diseases require immediate and appropriate treatment to decrease the fatality risk patients incident, for example diphtheria. Time to help patients is very crucial since delay of therapy may increase the mortality cases up to 20 times.

This study presents a polyanhydride‐based delivery platform for single‐injection, self‐boosting vaccines. The system enables programmable, pulsatile release of diphtheria toxoid with high antigen recovery and is guided by machine learning for tunability. In vivo results show immune responses comparable to multi‐dose regimens, highlighting its potential
