Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

Carriage of antimicrobial‐resistant E. coli in urban stray cats (Felis catus)

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Escherichia coli is a growing concern in both human and veterinary medicine, driven by the inappropriate use of antimicrobials. Companion animals may act as community reservoirs and sentinels for antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria due to their close contact with humans and other animals.

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Severe neutropenia can result from decreased production of neutrophil precursors in the bone marrow, as in the case of severe congenital neutropenia, or from increased utilization of neutrophils or their accelerated destruction as for drug‐induced neutropenia or autoimmune neutropenia. Severe chronic neutropenia increases susceptibility to bacterial or

The lung is more than an organ of gas exchange: immunocompetency, platelets and implications for drug discovery

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract The lungs have for a long time been recognised as having pharmacological significance as a specific organ to modulate the pharmacokinetics of endogenous substances needed to maintain homeostasis. The lungs are therefore the site of action of certain drugs that act on these homeostatic processes, resulting in systemic effects on the ...

From Control to Elimination: Making the End of Dental Caries Thinkable

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental caries remains one of the most prevalent noncommunicable diseases worldwide despite decades of clinical and behavioural interventions.

Sentinel Surveillance: Hepatitis E and the Case for Domestic Animal Surveillance

Globalization and geoclimatic changes are driving the emergence and spread of infectious diseases. Today, nearly two thirds of emerging Infectious diseases are zoonotic in nature (75% originating in wildlife). Despite individuals generally having little contact with wildlife (or livestock), public health continues to rely on reactionary surveillance in
