Management and prevention of lower leg cellulitis: a survey assessing practice variation and equipoise among Australasian clinicians in preparation for a randomised clinical trial

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lower limb cellulitis accounts for 1.5%–2% of visits to Australasian emergency departments. Antibiotics are considered the cornerstone of management, but despite prioritisation by consumers, acute interventions to manage pain and inflammation and cellulitis recurrence prevention strategies remain understudied beyond small pilot ...

Structural and functional studies of intrinsically disordered fibronectin-binding proteins [PDF]

, 2009
Bacterial fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBPs) mediate adhesion of bacteria to host tissues through binding to the human protein fibronectin (Fn). FnBPs are predicted to contain a series of intrinsically disordered Fn-binding repeats (FnBRs), which ...

Enhanced exonuclease–Cas9 systems promote multiple nucleotide deletions with higher efficiency and broader targeting scope in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Cas9 preferentially generates small indels. By tethering an exonuclease and a DNA‐binding domain (DBD) to Cas9, the Exo‐DBD‐Cas9 system efficiently promotes multiple nucleotide deletions. These expanded deletions enable effective disruption of miRNA‐mediated regulation and relieve translational repression through targeted editing of 3′ untranslated ...

Synergistic engineering of Casδ nuclease for robust genome editing

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
A hierarchical engineering strategy was used to enhance the editing activity of Casδ, yielding an optimized variant termed enCasδ. This variant enables robust genome editing in animal cells and plants, with overall editing performance comparable to that of SpCas9 and other Cas12 nucleases.

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.

Acute Streptococcal Tonsillitis in a Child. Questions asked by Life (Scientific Answers to the Question Put by the Practice)

Zdorovʹe Rebenka, 2013
The problem of acute tonsillitis remains relevant in clinical pediatrics. A special role in its etiology belongs to group A β-hemolytic streptococcus (Streptococcus pyogenes), which is found in every fourth child with acute bacterial tonsillitis. In this

Natural Variation in GmSL20 Improves Seed Size and Quality in Soybean

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed size plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying the regulation of this agronomic trait remain incompletely understood in soybean. Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study mapping with seed length variations and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 20, named ...
