Mechano‐Bactericidal Surfaces Achieved by Epitaxial Growth of Metal–Organic Frameworks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechano‐bactericidal surfaces based on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are designed using a MOF‐on‐MOF strategy. Two methods of MOF surface assembly, in situ growth and ex situ dropcasting, are applied. Distinct mechano‐bactericidal actions are discussed, including stretching, impaling, and mechanical injury. Abstract Mechano‐bactericidal (MB) surfaces

Comparing Prophylactic Administration of Sulbactam/Ampicillin Versus Cefmetazole for Prevention of Perineal Wound Infection Following Abdominoperineal Resection for Rectal Cancer: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This prospective randomized trial demonstrated that a 4‐day regimen of sulbactam/ampicillin significantly reduced the incidence of perineal wound infection (PWI) following abdominoperineal resection compared to a 1‐day cefmetazole regimen. This simple approach to antibiotic selection may be beneficial for preventing PWI.
