Health Research Funders and Justice: Obligations to Coordinate and Counterbalance

Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Government health research funders are frequently criticized on the grounds that their distribution of resources fails to reflect a population's disease burden. These critiques do not take into account what other research funders are doing. In this paper, I argue that this is a mistake.

Role of human RNase 7 in neuronal and glial cell models: moving towards an unexpected new functional link

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Human RNase 7 is known to exert antimicrobial activity in epithelial tissues. Here, using SH‐SY5Y and U‐87 MG, neuroblastoma and glioblastoma cell lines, respectively, we found that RNase 7 enhances immune responses to LPS stimulation by reducing the expression of pro‐inflammatory cytokines, nitric oxide, and ROS.

Beyond the Kidney and Lung: Cutaneous and Mucosal Clues to Human Hantavirus Disease

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Rodent exposure and aerosolized excreta can lead to hantavirus infection with systemic endothelial injury and capillary leak, resulting in thrombocytopenia and syndromes such as HPS/HCPS and HFRS/NE. Early dermatologic and mucosal findings, including flushing, conjunctival injection, petechiae/purpura, and mucosal bleeding, may provide important clues ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Bacterial Meningitis in Childhood

, 2011
A wide variety of pathogens cause childhood meningitis and clinical features and ­outcomes vary according to the organism. Bacterial meningitis caused by Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) is of particular importance as it has a high mortality and morbidity, has been relatively common and is ...

Incorporating the Competencies of Evidence‐Based Veterinary Medicine Focused on Pharmacotherapeutics Into Clinical Rotations for Small Animal Dermatology and Food Animal Medicine and Surgery at a Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital in the US

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Building the skills and knowledge necessary to practice evidence‐based veterinary medicine (EBVM) should occur throughout the veterinary curriculum. Operationalizing EBVM includes asking a clinical question in PICO format, searching the biomedical literature for evidence, critically appraising the evidence, and applying the evidence to make a ...

Pharmacokinetics of Long‐Acting Ampicillin and Its Impact on the Gut Microbiome and Resistome in Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta)

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Injectable antimicrobials with documented prolonged dosing intervals (> 48 h) for use in rhesus macaques are sparse. The objective of our study was to assess the pharmacokinetics, urine excretion, and effects on gut microbiome and resistome of intramuscular administered long‐acting formulation of ampicillin (Albipen LA) in macaques.

Photodynamic inactivation increases cell death rate on persistent Staphylococcus aureus

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Persistent bacteria have the ability to survive extended periods of antibiotic stress by entering a metabolically dormant state. This study investigated persistence formation in two S. aureus strains and evaluated the effects of PDI using curcumin. Post‐PDI time‐kill assays conducted after metabolic recovery showed a higher rate of bacterial death ...
