Biofilm Control by Active Topography with Mucin Coating
This study reports a new antifouling strategy based on a bioinspired design. Mucin coating enhances biofilm control by active topography with beating micron‐sized pillars. Besides the mechanical force of beating pillars, the antibiofilm activities also involve biological factors since mucin coating inhibits swarming motility and c‐di‐GMP synthesis in ...

Drugs Resistance Analysis from Scarce Health Records via Multi-task Graph Representation [PDF]
Clinicians prescribe antibiotics by looking at the patient's health record with an experienced eye. However, the therapy might be rendered futile if the patient has drug resistance. Determining drug resistance requires time-consuming laboratory-level testing while applying clinicians' heuristics in an automated way is difficult due to the categorical ...

Bayesian influence diagnostics and outlier detection for meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy [PDF]
Meta-analyses of diagnostic test accuracy (DTA) studies have been gaining prominence in research in clinical epidemiology and health technology development. In these DTA meta-analyses, some studies may have markedly different characteristics from the others, and potentially be inappropriate to include.

In this study, a novel cationic peptide, IW is designed and synthesized, with a tandem‐repeat sequence demonstrating potent activities against a broad spectrum of clinically relevant Carbapenem‐resistant Enterobacteriaceae in both the planktonic and biofilm states. IW is then formulated with P407 to form IW‐P407 colloids.

Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Antimicrobial Touch Surfaces to Prevent Cross‐Contamination
A MOF‐based antimicrobial door handle cover is developed. It completely inhibits the cross‐contamination of Gram‐positive bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis), Gram‐negative bacterial species (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii), and fungi (Candida albicans). Abstract Infection diseases

Determination of the antibiotic susceptibility pattern of Gram positive bacteria causing UTI in Dhaka Bangladesh [PDF]
Urinary Tract Infection (UTIs) is referred as one of the most common infection in medical sectors worldwide and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is also a global threat to human that is related with many diseases. As antibiotics used for the treatment of infectious diseases, the rate of resistance is increasing day by day.
