Sugar Functionalized Collagen Material for Local Modulation of Innate Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Modulation of the innate immune response at the implant site can significantly influence adaptive immunity. A mannose‐functionalized collagen patch, termed the Local Immunotuning Patch (LIP), has been designed to engage mannose receptors on antigen‐presenting cells while exhibiting antibacterial properties. LIP orchestrates complex immune pathways that

FUNCTIONAL DIAGNOSTICS OF LOWER URINARY TRACT IN CHILDREN

Slovenska pediatrija, 2023
Lower urinary tract dysfunction is clinically relevant because it may cause urinary tract infections, mainly due to accumulation of residual urine, adversely affect renal function, and may cause urine incontinence that strongly affects the child’s ...

A Reversible and Dynamic Surface Functionalization for Fluidity Controlled Multivalent Recognition of Lectins and Bacteria

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A reversible wet chemical surface functionalization results in dynamic multivalent receptors showing ligand‐specific high affinity for lectins and bacteria. Abstract The paper reports the design of multivalent bacterial receptors based on reversible self‐assembled monolayers (rSAMs) on gold and glass substrates, mimicking the ligand display on host ...

The role of probiotics in women with recurrent urinary tract infections.

Turkish journal of urology, 2018
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) still represent a significant bother for women and result in high costs to the health system. Increasing antimicrobial resistance has stimulated interest in non-antibiotic prophylaxis of recurrent UTIs. Evidence shows that

Single‐Cell Sequencing‐Guided Annotation of Rare Tumor Cells for Deep Learning‐Based Cytopathologic Diagnosis of Early Lung Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an innovative method to generate high‐quality, objectively annotated cytology datasets without relying on expert involvement. Large‐scale single‐cell DNA sequencing is used as an objective ground truth of cell annotation for generating an accurate, unbiased dataset of exfoliated tumor cells from bronchoalveolar lavage cytology ...

Urinary Tract Infections

DeckerMed Transitional Year Weekly Curriculum™, 2018
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common bacterial infection, affecting women far more than men. Aerobic gram-negative bacteria are the most common uropathogens causing UTI, with Escherichia coli remaining the most predominant organism in complicated infections.

Variable Selection in Covariate Dependent Random Partition Models: an Application to Urinary Tract Infection [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) can indicate the presence of urinary tract infection (UTI), a condition that if it becomes chronic requires expensive and time consuming care as well as leading to reduced quality of life. Detecting the presence and gravity of an infection from the earliest symptoms is then highly valuable.
