Domestic and International Health Expenditure and Health and Healthcare Use: Evidence From Mozambique

Health Economics, Volume 35, Issue 7, Page 1088-1103, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Evidence on the relationship between public health expenditure and health is mixed and particularly scarce for low‐income countries. Existing studies overlook the subnational distribution of expenditure and rarely distinguish between sources and governance over funding.

Fecal incontinence from early pregnancy to 12 months postpartum: A longitudinal cohort study from Tuscany

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 7, Page 1230-1239, July 2026.
In this study, a large longitudinal survey of pregnant women was conducted in Tuscany, assessing fecal incontinence from early pregnancy to 12 months postpartum using the Wexner scale. Panel regression models identify key sociodemographic, clinical, obstetric, and care pathway determinants of symptom severity and occurrence. Abstract Introduction Fecal

Genetically detoxified pertussis toxin induces superior antigen specific CD4 T cell responses compared to chemically detoxified pertussis toxin

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2019
Pertussis is resurgent worldwide. Currently available acellular pertussis vaccines contain chemically detoxified pertussis toxin (PTc); a highly immunogenic genetically detoxified pertussis toxin (PTg) vaccine has been off the market for over a decade ...

Evidence for a Two‐Step Model for Activation of GPR25 by the Chemoattractant CXCL17

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 139, Issue 1, July 2026.
ABSTRACT CXCL17 was recently reported to activate GPR25, a receptor expressed by T‐regulatory cells. Although classified as a chemokine, the activity of CXCL17 is ablated by minor C‐terminal truncation, suggesting a novel mode of receptor activation. We set out to test this hypothesis by mutagenesis. GPR25 was expressed in the murine pre‐B cell line L1.

Evidence that 5‐HT2A receptor signalling efficacy and not biased agonism differentiates serotonergic psychedelic from non‐psychedelic drugs

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 4058-4071, July 2026.
Background and Purpose Serotonergic psychedelic drugs are under investigation as therapies for various psychiatric disorders, including major depression. Although serotonergic psychedelic drugs are 5‐HT2A receptor agonists, some such agonists are not psychedelic, potentially due to differences in 5‐HT2A receptor ligand bias or signalling efficacy. Here,
