ABSTRACT Aim We characterized infections after international travel and identified predictors of severe infection to refine management. Methods We conducted a retrospective cross‐sectional analysis of children aged 0–18 years presenting to Helsinki University Hospital Emergency Department within 90 days of international travel between January 1, 2015 ...

Advances in Spatial Heterogeneity and Cellular Localization Specificity of Intratumoral Bacteria
Spatial localization of intratumoral bacteria governs their functional roles in tumor progression, metastasis, and treatment responses, with guiding significance for clinical management, as reviewed across three spatial paradigms. ABSTRACT Bacteria in tumors are increasingly recognized to be a part of the tumor microenvironment and their biological ...

Effect of pneumococcal conjugate vaccination on serotype-specific carriage and invasive disease in England: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
We investigated the effect of the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) programme in England on serotype-specific carriage and invasive disease to help understand its role in serotype replacement and predict the impact of higher valency vaccines.

Athe_2052 is an ABC transporter substrate‐binding protein that recognizes xyloglucan heptasaccharide (XXXG), a soluble breakdown product of plant xyloglucan. The crystal structure of Athe_2052, together with binding assays and computational modeling, shows how XXXG is recognized by this sugar transporter.

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as
