Vaginal microbiota and viral sexually transmitted diseases.

, 2013
Healthy vaginal microbiota is an important biological barrier to pathogenic microorganisms. When this predominantly Lactobacillus community is disrupted, decreased in abundance and replaced by different anaerobes, bacterial vaginosis (BV) may occur.

The vaginal microbiota of healthy female cats

Theriogenology
The vaginal microbiota of the queen (i.e., female cat) has never been described using culture independent methods. The objectives of the present research were to describe the vaginal microbiota of healthy domestic shorthair queens using both 16S rRNA sequencing and culture, and to assess the effects of age, living environment, and reproductive season ...

Sepsis and Antibiotics in Extremely Preterm Infants: Early Empirical Treatment Was Common, While Late‐Onset Sepsis Accounted for Most Cases and Antibiotic Use

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 10, Page 2228-2236, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The aim was to investigate the incidence of sepsis and use of antibiotics among extremely preterm infants, given the limited number of population‐based studies examining this. Methods This retrospective study in Eastern Denmark included all liveborn infants from 23 + 0 weeks/days to 27 + 6 weeks/days of gestation from 2019 to 21.

Development and Characterization of Ribes nigrum Extract‐Loaded PLGA/Chitosan Nanoparticles as a Vaginal Drug Delivery System for Vulvovaginal Candidiasis

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 36, September 20, 2026.
Ribes nigrum extract‐loaded PLGA/chitosan nanoparticles is developed as a vaginal drug delivery system for vulvovaginal candidiasis. The chitosan‐coated nanoparticles exhibit favorable physicochemical properties, strong mucoadhesion, sustained release for up to 2 weeks, excellent biocompatibility, and potent antifungal activity against Candida ...

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

Journal 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 ...

Re‐evaluation of salt of aspartame‐acesulfame (E 962) as food additive

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The present opinion deals with the re‐evaluation of salt of aspartame‐acesulfame (E 962) as a food additive. The Panel considered that upon ingestion, E 962 dissociates into aspartame and acesulfame ions which correspond to those of the authorised sweeteners aspartame (E 951) and acesulfame K (E 950). The Panel therefore assessed the safety of
