Applications of bioactive herbal extracts in dressing materials for skin wound repair: Ingredients, mechanisms and innovations

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract The skin, as the body's largest organ, plays essential roles in protection, immune regulation, and homeostasis. Skin trauma, especially chronic wounds such as diabetic ulcers, poses significant clinical challenges. Traditional treatments, while often effective, can be costly and pose risks.

A Machine Learning Approach to Microcalorimetric Pattern Classification of Pathogens in Synovial Fluid

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isothermal microcalorimetry (IMC) is a promising tool for diagnosing periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), based on real‐time measurement of growth‐related heat production of pathogens, and faster than conventional microbial cultures. However, the feasibility of identifying specific pathogens in clinical samples using IMC has yet to be proven.

Exploring the antimicrobial activity of fermented and non‐fermented cocoa bean shell extracts through metabolomics analysis and synergistic studies

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Cocoa bean shell (CBS) extracts have emerged as a promising source of antimicrobial compounds. However, the bioactive compounds responsible for their antimicrobial activity have not been studied sufficiently. This study analyzed the antimicrobial properties of 12 extracts from fermented and non‐fermented CBS, employing solvent and ...

Auricular Perichondritis in the Cartilage Piercing Era

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The demographics, clinical presentation, treatment, and complications of piercing‐induced auricular perichondritis (P‐IAP) and piercing‐free auricular perichondritis (P‐FAP) were studied. P‐IAP has different demographics, comorbidities, disease course, and microbiology compared to P‐FAP.

Effect of Substance P in Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis virulence: Implication for skin homeostasis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis are two major skin associated bacteria, and Substance P (SP) is a major skin neuropeptide. Since bacteria are known to sense and response to many human hormones, we investigated the effects of SP on ...
