SERS Facemask for Rapid and Portable Sensing Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Antigens for TB Screening

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study introduced an Au─Ag embedded covalent organic framework (U@COF) ‐mediated facemask for sensing TB antigen ESAT‐6/CFP‐10 complex in clinical droplet samples toward TB screening. Practical analysis of clinical samples demonstrated the availability of our facemask, which is capable of identifying the TB subjects (N = 17) from healthy candidates (

What do we (not) know about the human bartonelloses?

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2003
The human bartonelloses are a group of diseases with a rapidly increasing clinical spectrum. Well known manifestations such as Carrion's disease, trench fever, cat-scratch disease, and bacillary angiomatosis are examples of Bartonella spp.

Carboxylate‐Driven Metal Pre‑Fixation COF@MOF Synthesis: Enabling Tailored Structural, Dimensional, and Defect Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A universal metal pre‐fixation (MPF) strategy directs the precise crystallization of diverse metal‐organic frameworks (Co‐MOF, ZIF‐8, Fe‐MOF, UIO‐66) on covalent organic framework (PY‐COF) scaffolds. The resulting hierarchical hybrids exhibit tunable porosity, structural defective and dimensional, as well as enhanced performance in CH4/C2H6/C3H8 ...

Endocarditis caused by Bartonella Quintana, a rare case in the United States

open access: yesIDCases, 2019
Bartonella quintana is a relatively rare cause of endocarditis in the United States (USA). Historically it was linked with trench fever, but cardiac involvement seems to be more prevalent recently.

Sustained Delivery of a Shingles Subunit Vaccine Overcomes Age‐Related Declines in Humoral and Cellular Immunity Relative to Shingrix

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sustained delivery of a shingles subunit vaccine from an injectable polymer–nanoparticle hydrogel enhanced the potency, durability, and breadth of immune responses in aged mice while minimizing inflammatory cytokine production and reactogenicity. This strategy decouples immunogenicity from reactogenicity and offers a promising approach to improve ...

Overcoming Transmission Barriers: A Dual‐Functional Adhesive Hydrogel for Direct Monkeypox Virus Neutralization and Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MPXV infection leads to persistent viral replication and severe local inflammation, while existing treatments cannot simultaneously remove viruses and repair injured tissue. This study constructs Polymer@mPDA@Gel hydrogel via a two‐step hierarchical assembly method: mPDA anchors photothermal polymers to form antiviral photothermal subunits, which are ...

Generation of Nasal Cell‐Derived Human Alveolar Organoids and Organoid‐Macrophage Assembloids for in Vitro Lung Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the generation of human alveolar organoids from nasal cells, which, when co‐cultured with monocyte‐derived macrophages, promotes maturation of both components and forms alveolar assembloids resembling native alveoli. These alveolar organoids and assembloids offer accessible, physiologically relevant in vitro systems for ...

Bartonella quintana in Cynomolgus Monkey (Macaca fascicularis)

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
We identified a Bartonella quintana strain by polymerase chain reaction amplification, cloning, and sequencing of DNA extracted from lysed erythrocytes and cultured colonies grown from peripheral blood collected from a captive-bred cynomolgus monkey ...

Potential Survival Benefit of Neoadjuvant Docetaxel, Cisplatin and 5‐Fluorouracil Therapy in Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma With Multiple Lymph Node Metastases: A Single‐Institute Propensity Score Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy with fluorouracil, cisplatin, and docetaxel (NAC‐DCF) is the current standard neoadjuvant regimen for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, its substantial toxicity underscores the need to identify patients who derive the greatest benefit.
