Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

Interdisciplinary Materials, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 834-867, September 2026.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Caspase‐mediated cleavage events hidden by secondary proteolysis during apoptosis

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Caspases are cysteine proteases that cleave specific proteins to control a range of cellular processes including cell death, inflammation, and differentiation. Proteomic approaches, like N‐terminomics, have been central to identifying both cleaved proteins and where they are cleaved.

Detection of icaA, icaD genes and biofilm production by Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis isolated from urinary tract catheterized patients

The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2009
Staphylococci are a common cause of catheter-associated urinary tract infections. The present study evaluated biofilm forming capacity and the presence of both icaA and icaD genes among staphylococci strains isolated from patients undergoing ureteral catheterization.Different bacterial strains were isolated from urine and stents segments collected from

Detection of icaA and icaD genes and biofilmformation in Staphylococcus spp. isolated from urinary catheters at the University Hospital of Tlemcen (Algeria)

African Journal of Microbiology Research, 2013
Staphylococcus spp. es una causa importante de infecciones asociadas con el cateterismo urinario y otros dispositivos médicos. La formación de biopelículas es un paso importante en la patogénesis de estos estafilococos y depende de la expresión del operón icaADBC involucrado en la síntesis de una adhesión intercelular de polisacáridos. En este estudio,

Impact of Intracranial Atherosclerosis and Cerebral Small Vessel Disease on Overt Vascular Events During Antithrombotic Therapy

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 6, June 2026.
In this prospective multicenter study, baseline MRI assessed SVD markers and ICAD severity, showing no graded association between ICAD severity and overall SVD burden, although ICAD was linked to more nonlacunar infarcts and fewer PVS. Over a median 2‐year follow‐up, severe‐to‐occluded ICAD independently increased the risk of ischemic events and ...

Novel Antibiofilm Approach Using Bioactive Glasses F18 and 45S5 Against Clinical Isolates of Staphylococcus aureus in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT S. aureus plays a central role in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), contributing to acute exacerbations and persistent infections through biofilm formation. With rising antibiotic resistance, bioactive glasses such as F18 and 45S5 have emerged as potential alternative antimicrobial agents. To evaluate the antimicrobial effects of F18 and 45S5 on S.

Co‐Occurrence of Biofilm Formation and Disinfectant–Antimicrobial Resistance in Staphylococcus spp. Along the Dairy Production Chain

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aims to investigate the co‐occurrence of biofilm formation and resistance to disinfectants and antimicrobial agents in Staphylococcus spp. isolated from different stages of the dairy production chain, and to assess the contribution of these traits to persistence in dairy processing environments. A total of 51 Staphylococcus isolates,

Challenges in the future of cancer screening

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 8, Page 2013-2022, 15 April 2026.
Abstract The purpose of cancer screening is to reduce mortality, and ideally incidence, from the cancer screened for. Until recently, cancer screening has been offered to all persons in pre‐defined sex‐ and age‐groups. The exception is lung screening which is targeted to high‐risk individuals.
