Anti‐Inflammatory Effects of Flavonoids in Otitis Media: A Systematic Review of Pre‐Clinical Evidence

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
Otitis media (OM) is a middle ear infection driven by chronic inflammation, leading to tissue damage and complications such as cholesteatoma. Flavonoids, a class of polyphenols with anti‐inflammatory properties, suppress key inflammatory mediators, reducing neutrophilic infiltration and mucosal thickening.

Epidemiological approaches to evaluate clinical unmasking of HPV‐associated cervical lesions in the HPV vaccination era

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract HPV vaccination reduces the risk of developing HPV‐attributable cancers, including cervical cancer. However, an attenuation of HPV vaccine impact after the implementation of HPV vaccination may occur through clinical unmasking. Clinical unmasking is a distinct and complex phenomenon that arises in the absence of clinical interventions ...

Age‐Associated Inflammatory Monocytes Are Increased in Menopausal Females and Reversed by Hormone Replacement Therapy

Aging Cell, EarlyView.
Post‐menopausal females (> 64 years) have an increase in frequency of inflammatory monocyte populations with defective phagocytosis as compared to pre‐menopausal (< 40 years) females. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) use in menopausal females (44–60 years) decreases the frequency of inflammatory monocytes and improves phagocytosis as compared to age ...
