Keratinocyte Priming by Staphylococcus aureus Reduces HSV‐1 Susceptibility

Allergy, EarlyView.
ADEH+ patients have a reduced microbial diversity with increased S. aureus and S. epidermidis colonization compared to ADEH− and healthy controls. Heat‐killed S. aureus reduced HSV‐1 susceptibility and release of infectious progeny virus in a keratinocyte in vitro model. Heat‐killed S.

Emollient Formulations and Skin Barrier Practices in the Context of Eczema and Food Allergy Prevention

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The skin is far from a passive shield; it functions as a dynamic “living barrier” whose structural and immunological integrity is paramount in preventing atopic dermatitis (AD) and the subsequent progression of the atopic march toward food allergy (FA).

Genomic Analysis of Novel Bacterial Species Corynebacterium ramonii ST344 Clone Strains Isolated from Human Skin Ulcer and Rescued Cats in Japan

Zoonotic Diseases
Some Corynebacterium strains produce toxins that are similar to those produced by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, leading to human infections that are often transmitted through zoonotic diseases.

Shotgun Metagenomics Reveals Skin Microbiome Composition and Function in Infant Atopic Disease

Allergy, EarlyView.
Deep shotgun metagenomics profiled > 1000 infant skin swabs in the VITALITY cohort. Distinct skin microbiome signatures separated AD alone from AD with allergic co‐occurrence. Early Staphylococcus enrichment preceded later AD with allergic co‐occurrence. FLG mutations and strain‐level analyses revealed host and microbial features linked to AD.

When two diseases collide: Endometriosis as a risk factor for severe pelvic inflammatory disease

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Endometriosis is associated with a more severe clinical course of pelvic inflammatory disease in hospitalized patients, including higher rates of antibiotic treatment failure, longer hospital stay, and increased need for surgical intervention. Abstract Introduction Our objective was to compare the severity of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in ...

Impact of Gentamicin‐Impregnated Collagen Sponge on the Incidence of Access Related Infections After Full‐Support Microaxial Flow Pump Therapy

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Local application of gentamicin for wound closure after full‐support microaxial flow pump therapy. ABSTRACT Background Surgically implanted microaxial flow pumps (mAFP) are increasingly used for cardiogenic shock treatment. Standard mAFP explantation is performed bedside with a shortening of the vascular prosthesis, which may represent a potential ...
