The effects of anodization and instrumentation on titanium abutment surface characteristics and biofilm formation

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the impact of anodization and instrumentation on titanium abutment surface characteristics (surface roughness and wettability) and biofilm formation (viability and mass). Materials and Methods Titanium discs were obtained from pre‐milled abutment blanks made of titanium‐6aluminum‐7niobium alloy.

Is Rifampin (Rifampicin) Essential for the Treatment of Rhodococcus equi Infections in Foals? A Critical Review of the Role of Rifampin

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rifampin is an enigma among antimicrobials. Blood and tissue compartment concentrations are a “moving target” along the treatment course due to the complex pharmacodynamic interactions within the body. Rifampin concomitant therapies are for the prevention and treatment of Rhodococcus equi infection in foals, for nearly 40 years.

Staphylococcus aureus COL: An Atypical Model Strain of MRSA That Exhibits Slow Growth and Antibiotic Tolerance due to a Mutation in PRPP Synthetase

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
COL is an unusual “model” strain of Staphylococcus aureus that exhibits slow growth and multidrug antibiotic tolerance. This phenotype is primarily due to a mutation in Prs, which synthesizes the core metabolite phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). Introduction of the COL Prs allele into the antibiotic‐susceptible strain Newman confers tolerance, while

Inflamed or Infected Molluscum Contagiosum Lesions: Pediatrician Perceptions and the Risk of Antibiotic Overuse

open access: yesPediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is a common pediatric skin infection caused by the molluscum contagiosum virus. Lesions often become inflamed prior to self‐resolving. This phenomenon can mimic bacterial superinfection, although true superinfection of MC lesions is thought to be rare.

Ocular safety of 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐c full‐room germicidal irradiation: A 36‐month clinical observation

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
A 36‐month observational study evaluated the ocular safety of 222‐nm UV‐C irradiation in physicians exposed in an ophthalmic room. No acute or chronic ocular damage was detected, and key ocular parameters remained unchanged. The findings support the safe use of 222‐nm UV‐C for disinfection, aligning with safety threshold guidelines. Abstract The ocular
