Invasive Bacterial Co-infection in African Children with Plasmodium falciparum Malaria: A Systematic Review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Severe malaria remains a major cause of pediatric hospital admission across Africa. Invasive bacterial infection (IBI) is a recognized complication of Plasmodium falciparum malaria, resulting in a substantially worse outcome.

In vitro and in silico modelling of ROS1‐positive non‐small cell lung cancer reveals fusion‐dependent tyrosine kinase inhibitor responses

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Drug resistance limits treatment success in a subset of lung cancers driven by ROS1 gene alterations. Using patient‐derived cells and computer simulations, we studied three key mutations and how they affect five targeted drugs. The mutations reduced drug effectiveness in different ways by altering protein structure and behavior.

Point-prevalence survey of hospital acquired infections in three acute care hospitals in Northern Nigeria

open access: yesAntimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2020
Background Effective infection prevention and control strategies require reliable data describing the epidemiology of hospital acquired infections (HAIs), and this is currently lacking in Nigeria.

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Application of agent-based simulation to the modelling and management of hospital-acquired infections [PDF]

open access: yes
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) are a big threat to the well-being of patients and place a heavy burden on hospital resources. The thesis provides the first attempt to apply agent-based simulation (ABS) to describe the transmission dynamics and ...

Probiotics for pediatric diarrhea and constipation: an umbrella meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics
Background The current evidence regarding the impact of probiotics on diarrhea and constipation outcomes in children is inconclusive. This umbrella review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses aims to deliver a comprehensive and conclusive summary of ...

HOSPITAL ACQUIRED INFECTIONS

open access: yesThe Professional Medical Journal, 2010
Nosocomial infections may be defined as the infections which develop within hospital. There are different types of  microorganisms which are involved along with other agents for the spread of these infections. Knowledge about the spread and prevention of these infections is the basic step for control.

Profiling neoadjuvant therapy response in rectal cancer using meta‐analysis of publicly available transcriptomic RNA‐seq datasets

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates publicly available transcriptomic datasets to identify molecular signatures associated with response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer. By analyzing a combination of multiple cohorts with bioinformatics approaches, we reveal biological pathways and immune‐related features that may improve ...

Monitoring Quality of Care Through Linkage of Administrative Data: National Trends in Bloodstream Infection in U.K. PICUs 2003-2012. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
OBJECTIVES Interventions to reduce hospital-acquired bloodstream infection have succeeded in reducing rates in U.S. PICUs, but there is a lack of evidence for the impact of similar interventions in the United Kingdom.

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...
