Stromal Cell‐Mast Cell Communication Orchestrates Anti‐Viral Immunity in the Meninges

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study delineates the spatial distribution and postnatal maturation of meningeal mast cells and uncovers their essential role in antiviral immunity. Using genetic models, mast cells are shown to promote CD8⁺ T cell infiltration and viral clearance via IL‐33 receptor signaling and synergistic activation by IL‐33 and ATP from infected stromal cells ...

Aptamer Engineering: Strategies for Discovering Functional Nucleic Acids for Next‐Generation Diagnostics and Biosensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The advent of aptamers has highlighted their potential as alternatives to antibodies, overcoming limitations of structural instability and production cost. However, conventional approaches such as SELEX remain slow and labor‐intensive. This review examines recent advances in aptamer engineering, emphasizing in vitro and AI‐driven in silico strategies ...

Acquired ptosis associated with oculomotor and contralateral facial nerve synkinesis: the first reported case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Evidence of oculomotor nerve (ON) synkinesis is a common occurrence following both acquired and congenital III nerve palsy. It is generally accepted that aberrant regeneration is the likely aetiology of synkinesis in acquired III nerve palsy, following ...

Crossing the Blood–Brain Barrier with Molecularly Imprinted Polymeric Nanocarriers: An Emerging Frontier in Brain Disease Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecularly imprinted polymeric nanocarriers (nanoMIPs) offer robust, antibody‐mimetic platforms to overcome the blood‐brain barrier. The article surveys nanoMIP design and ligand‐directed surface engineering that harness receptor‐mediated transcytosis, and highlights therapeutic and diagnostic applications in neurodegeneration, brain tumors and ...

The Global Burden of Meningitis in Children: Challenges with Interpreting Global Health Estimates

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed a global roadmap to defeat meningitis by 2030. To advocate for and track progress of the roadmap, the burden of meningitis as a syndrome and by pathogen must be accurately defined.

Useful residual hearing despite radiological findings suggestive of anacusis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
A severe malformation of the inner ear, often referred to as severe labyrinthine dysplasia or common cavity deformity, consists of an absent or dilated cochlear basal coil, wide communication with the vestibule and a tapered internal acoustic meatus and ...

Late Pregnancy Antiseizure Medication Exposure and Offspring Neurodevelopmental Risk: A Multi‐Child Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Antiseizure medication (ASM) use during pregnancy has increased over the past decade. However, evidence linking prenatal ASM exposure to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in offspring remains inconsistent. This study evaluated whether prenatal ASM exposure increases the risk of NDDs in children.

Effect of case management on neonatal mortality due to sepsis and pneumonia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: Each year almost one million newborns die from infections, mostly in low-income countries. Timely case management would save many lives but the relative mortality effect of varying strategies is unknown.
