Guidelines for the purification and characterization of extracellular vesicles of parasites

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 2, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Parasites are responsible for the most neglected tropical diseases, affecting over a billion people worldwide (WHO, 2015) and accounting for billions of cases a year and responsible for several millions of deaths. Research on extracellular vesicles (EVs) has increased in recent years and demonstrated that EVs shed by pathogenic parasites ...

Advances in mass spectrometry technologies to characterize cervicovaginal microbiome functions that impact spontaneous preterm birth

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 90, Issue 2, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Preterm birth (PTB) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in young children. Infection is a major cause of this adverse outcome, particularly in PTBs characterised by spontaneous rupture of membranes, referred to as spontaneous (s)PTB. However, the aetiology of sPTB is not well defined and specific bacteria associated with sPTB differ ...

Reasons for truly negative cytology reports preceding the diagnoses of invasive cervical cancer—Results of a false‐negative cytology audit in Polish Cervical Cancer Screening Programme

Cancer Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 12, Page 13800-13810, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Background False‐negative (FN) results in cervical cancer (CC) screening pose significant risk for participants and should be audited. The aim of the study was to analyse the results of audit of FN slides collected in 2010–2013 in Polish Cervical Cancer Screening Program (CCSP) and to seek for risk factors of obtaining true‐negative result (TN;

Prevalence and Genotype of Trichomonas vaginalis among Men in Xinxiang City, Henan Province, China

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Trichomonas vaginalis (T. vaginalis) could cause trichomoniasis through sexual transmission, which was globally distributed. In this study, the prevalence and phylogenetic analyses of T. vaginalis among men in Xinxiang were conducted. From October 2018 to December 2019, a total of 634 male clinical samples were collected, including 254 samples of semen,
