Multifunctional Bioactive Coatings Based on Bioglass, Vitamin D3, and Melittin Deposited via MAPLE for Enhanced Osseointegration, Antibacterial Activity, and Corrosion Resistance of Titanium Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Matrix‐Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique is used to cover titanium (Ti) substrates with multifunctional bioactive coatings composed of bioglass, vitamin D3, and melittin. Coatings exhibited excellent chemical integrity and favorable micro/nanostructured morphology (promoting cellular adhesion and viability), and a sustained release of

Antimicrobial Multi‐Assay Evaluation of (Al‐Doped ZnO)‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag Nanocoatings: Impact of Direct and Indirect Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work explores the antimicrobial action of AZO‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag nanocoatings on plastic, demonstrating good efficacy against highly‐critical antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, yeast, and virus. A multi‐assay approach is here exploited to inspect the contribution of direct and indirect antimicrobial mechanisms, and potential human toxicity is also ...

Levels and trends in under-5 mortality, 1990–2008

The Lancet, 2010
As global momentum and investment for accelerating maternal and child survival grows, monitoring of progress at the global and country level has become even more needed. Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG 4) calls for a two-thirds reduction in the mortality rate among children under the age of 5 years between 1990 and 2015.

New estimates of global under-5 mortality – Authors' reply

The Lancet, 2007
Efforts to estimate key health indicators to guide development strategies should draw on all available expertise data and statistical acumen. Child mortality is no exception. Recent advances have been made to harmonise the work of identifying past trends and generating current estimates through the Interagency Child Mortality Estimation Group (IACMEG ...

Prevalence of under-5 mortality and its associated risk factors in Afghanistan

Children and Youth Services Review, 2021
Abstract Introduction Under-five mortality rate (U5MR) is a crucial indicator of the health in a society. The determinant of under-five mortality is essential for designing effective intervention programs that enhances the survival of young children.
