Postnatally Acquired Cytomegalovirus Infection in Extremely Premature Infants: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Postnatally acquired cytomegalovirus (pCMV) infection may cause severe disease in extremely preterm infants, but its clinical significance remains uncertain. We investigated the incidence, timing, disease burden, and diagnostic performance of saliva screening. Method In this prospective cohort study, infants born at < 28 weeks of gestation

Wt1 Is Required for the Regression of Müllerian Ducts in Male Mice by Inducing Wif1 and Osx Expression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Wt1 expressed in the MD mesenchyme promotes MD regression by inducing Wif1 and Osx transcription. In male mice, mesenchyme‐specific inactivation of Wt1 results in MD retention. ABSTRACT In mammals, Müllerian ducts (MDs) are the precursors of the female reproductive tract which regress in males during embryonic development.

Testing for sexually transmitted infections using vaginal swabs is noninferior to testing using endocervical swabs

, 2020
Background and Objectives: Emergency Department (ED) Testing for Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) in females has typically been performed with a pelvic exam and an endocervical swab sent for nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT). The Centers for

Dynamics of porcine circovirus type 2 infection and neutralizing antibodies in subclinically infected gilts, and the effect on their litters

Revista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2015
Background: porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is associated with reproductive disease in newly populated herds and in replacement breeding stock from new sources and is almost exclusively reported in gilts. Objective: the main purpose of this study was to

Systematic Comparison of High‐Fat Diet– and Streptozotocin‐Induced Prediabetic Obese C57BL/6J Mouse Models: A Sex‐Based Protocol Optimization Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Animal models of prediabetes (Pre‐DM) are essential for studying metabolic disease and testing therapies, yet high‐fat diet (HFD) and HFD‐plus‐streptozotocin (STZ) protocols vary in feeding duration, STZ dose, and diagnostic criteria and rarely account for sex.

Optimising Vaginal Microbiome Profiling for Clinical Translation: A Comparative Assessment of Sample Storage Methods and a Vagina-Specific 16S rRNA Gene Database

Microorganisms
Vaginal microbiome composition has been linked to risk of preterm birth (PTB), a persistent global health challenge. 16S rRNA microbial profiling has identified specific vaginal community state types (CSTs) that have been associated with PTB risk ...

Hippo pathway disruption and YAP1 activation in anogenital papillary squamous intraepithelial lesion

Histopathology, EarlyView.
Disruption of the Hippo Pathway with YAP1 activation is a consistent finding in papillary squamous intraepithelial lesions and may underlie their altered epithelial maturation and HPV E6/E7 expression patterns, providing new insight into the pathogenesis of this distinct low‐risk HPV‐associated lesion.
