Six-year retrospective analysis of the epidemiology and risk factors of multidrug-resistant bloodstream infections in oncology patients in Jiangxi, China

Microbiology Spectrum
Cancer patients are particularly vulnerable to bloodstream infections (BSIs) due to their immunocompromised status. This retrospective study at Jiangxi Cancer Hospital (2019 to 2024) analyzed the bacterial spectrum, risk factors, and antimicrobial ...

Interface Wettability Transition‐Driven Drug Release and Dual‐Phase Functionalization in Implant Abutment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A temporally controlled drug release coating is developed for abutments using a superhydrophobic coating self‐assembled on mesoporous silica. This surface provides sequential functionality: initial contamination resistance through non‐wetting, followed by controlled drug release via wettability transition.

Development of a Human 3D Immune‐Competent Neurovascular Model Enabling Time‐Resolved Monitoring of Neuroinflammatory Dynamics and Neuroimmune Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuroinflammation alters blood–brain barrier integrity and contributes to neurological disorders, yet existing models lack human immune complexity. This study presents a 3D, immune‐responsive platform that reconstructs key neurovascular components and enables real‐time monitoring.

Clinical impact and disparities in mortality and antimicrobial resistance between Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria in cirrhotic abdominal infections: a meta-analysis

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundBacterial infections are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with liver cirrhosis. Shifts in pathogen distribution and the rise of multidrug-resistant (MDR) organisms complicate clinical management, yet the relative impact of

Dual‐Stage Microneedle Patch With Lipid Droplet‐Mediated ‘Capture‐Kill’ and Sustained Release for Enhanced Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We report a lipid‐droplet‐engineered, gallium‐loaded sonodynamic therapeutic platform (LDTG) incorporated into a bilayer microneedle (MN) patch co‐delivering all‐trans retinoic acid (ATRA), termed LDTG A‐MNs, for synergistic antibacterial therapy and accelerated wound repair.

A Sprayable Nanoplatform Breaks the Vicious Cycle of Diabetic Wounds via Photoactivated Antioxidant and Drug Delivery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A sprayable near‐infrared‐activated nanoplatform incorporating MXene, ZnHCF nanozyme, and deferoxamine efficiently breaks the vicious cycle of diabetic wounds. Upon irradiation, interfacial electron transfer and photothermal effects enhance multi‐enzyme activity, enabling explosive ROS elimination, alleviation of hypoxia, and controlled DFO release ...

Multi‐Targeting Carnosic Acid Kills Drug‐Resistant Helicobacter pylori With Narrow‐Spectrum Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Carnosic acid selectively eradicates drug‐resistant Helicobacter pylori through a multi‐targeted mechanism involving urease inhibition, membrane disruption, and biofilm eradication. It exhibits no detectable resistance, potent in vivo efficacy, and minimal impact on gut microbiota, positioning it as a promising narrow‐spectrum lead compound against ...

Conformational Snapshots of CydDC in a Native Lipid Bilayer Coupling Heme Transport to Antibiotic Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phylogenetic and biochemical analyses of the heme transporter CydDC reveal its functional conservation throughout bacterial evolution and demonstrate its unique asymmetric allosteric mechanism. Furthermore, impairment of CydDC function directly affects bacterial antibiotic resistance and likely compromises antibiotic efficacy through drug efflux.
