Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Neurocysticercosis: diagnosis via metagenomic next-generation sequencing

Practical Neurology, 2023
A 68-year-old Brazilian woman had 3 months of progressive fatigue, difficulty walking and 18 kg weight loss. On examination, there was gait apraxia and executive dysfunction. MR scan of brain showed communicating hydrocephalus and a cerebrospinal fluid showed 105 white cells/µL (≤5), predominantly lymphocytes, protein of 1.35 g/L (0.15–0.45) and the ...

METAGENOMIC NEXT-GENERATION SEQUENCING DETECTS PATHOGENS IN ENDOPHTHALMITIS PATIENTS

Retina, 2022
Purpose: To investigate the utility of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in identifying the pathogens in endophthalmitis. Methods: In this prospective study, 36 cases of endophthalmitis were recruited. All patients received surgical treatment and intraocular drug lavage.

Adenovirus metagenomic next-generation sequencing

2023
We detected the adenovirus infection in nasopharyngeal swab samples from patients with respiratory tract infection. mNGS was performed on NextSeq 550 and GenoLab M sequencing platforms to study viral phylogenetics and recombination.

Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in Clinical Microbiology

Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 2020
Abstract Identification of causative pathogens in infectious disease is a critical component of health care, as infectious diseases continue to be a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. In addition, the detection of drug resistance by traditional and novel antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods is becoming ever more important as ...

Metagenomics Using Next-Generation Sequencing

2014
Traditionally, microbial genome sequencing has been restricted to the small number of species that can be grown in pure culture. The progressive development of culture-independent methods over the last 15 years now allows researchers to sequence microbial communities directly from environmental samples.

Exploring Metagenomes Using Next-Generation Sequencing

2017
Metagenomics or community genomics refers to the study of genomic DNA of any culture-independent analysis of microbial communities. Non-culturable microbial groups represent the huge majority of global microorganisms. Microbial populations present in every biological niche even humans body carry 10 times more bacterial cells and 100 times more ...

Rapid detection of pulmonary nocardiosis by metagenomic next generation sequencing

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2023
We retrospectively analyzed 3 cases of pulmonary nocardiosis. Patients were identified by metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, from January 2019 to April 2022. All patients had underlying diseases, and were in immunocompromised state, with membranous nephropathy, acute lymphoblastic ...

Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing of Viruses Infecting Grapevines

2015
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, for the first time, provide a truly "complete" representation of the viral (and other) pathogens present in a host organism. This is achieved in an unbiased way, and without any prior biological or molecular knowledge of these pathogen(s).
