The Baboon as a Model to Study Human Health and Complex Disease

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 9, September 2026.
Baboons remain underappreciated as models of human biology and disease offering a distinct combination of biological and practical properties. In this review, we evaluate the baboon as a model for human complex diseases and make the case for broader use of baboons in translational research.

Prevotella loescheii attenuates pregnancy‐induced hypertension by reshaping placental immunity and halting macrophage pyroptosis

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 3, September 2026.
Prevotella loescheii alleviates pregnancy‐induced hypertension (PIH) by reshaping the placental immune microenvironment, suppressing oxidative stress (OS)‐mediated NLRP3 pyroptosis, and restoring short‐chain fatty acid (SCFA) metabolic homeostasis. P. loescheii alleviates PIH by reshaping the placental immune microenvironment, suppressing OS‐mediated ...

Magnitude and Associated Factors of Surgical Site Infection Following Cesarean Section: A Cross‐Sectional Study in Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Surgical site infections (SSIs) occur at the incision site or in deeper tissues within 30 days of surgery and represent a significant public health concern, contributing substantially to maternal morbidity and mortality. Evidence on the magnitude and associated factors of SSIs among women undergoing cesarean delivery in this

[The role of anaerobe adhesion in the colonization of the vaginal mucosa].

open access: yesAnnali dell'Istituto superiore di sanita, 1979
Some our previous research works on bacterial adhesion to vaginal cells in the different phases of the menstruum showed that adhesion changes depending on changing environmental conditions. We therefore considered interesting to extend our investigations to anaerobic flora, in the light of recent observations intended to attribute an important role to ...

Time from pre‐labor rupture of membrane at term to delivery in grand multiparous women

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 1374-1380, September 2026.
Abstract Objective The effect of parity on labor progression following term pre‐labor rupture of membranes (PROM) has been described, but detailed patterns among grand multiparous women remain unclear. Traditional labor models show accelerated labor with increasing parity, yet few studies have specifically examined PROM latency distributions or ...
