Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Maxillary Sinus Papillary Edema as a Predictor of Odontogenic Sinusitis
Maxillary sinus papillary edema (MSPE) is a distinct finding that is reliably identifiable, and is significantly more likely in odontogenic sinusitis (ODS) compared to infectious chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps and noninfectious chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.

Polydopamine‐Antibiotic Composite Coating for Antibiofilm Applications
Antibiotic‐loaded polydopamine coatings are developed to combat biofilm‐forming bacteria on catheter surfaces. These coatings strongly inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation on diverse materials, including during continuous artificial‐urine flow, and can accommodate multiple antibiotics.

Antimicrobial Cyclic Peptidomimetics
Singular macromolecular cationic, amphipathic cyclic peptidomimetics with poly(2‐oxazoline)s‐esque backbone structure that undergo self‐assembly in water to form uniform nanoparticles were developed. The cyclic peptidomimetics, which act on bacterial cell membranes, exhibit hydrophobic‐dependent antimicrobial activity and toxicity.

Uncovering Key Characteristics of Antibacterial Peptides through Machine Learning
Machine‐learning (ML) techniques using random forest classification models revealed key characteristics that predict effective antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) targeting Gram‐negative bacteria, Gram‐positive bacteria, and mycobacteria. The ideal cLogP (<$ < $−6) and net‐charge (≤+4) threshold was the same for all three targets with variations in the ...
