Antiseptic Agents for Chronic Wounds: A Systematic Review
In many parts of the world, antiseptic agents remain non-indicated in chronic wound care. In the current context of bacterial resistance to antibiotics and the development of new-generation antiseptic agents, wound antisepsis represents an asset for the ...

Arteriopathy is an uncommon complication of primary varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection in the immunocompetent adult. We report a case of a 39-year-old woman known to be VZV negative prior to the event. She presented to the emergency department having experienced an episode of expressive aphasia and right upper limb paraesthesia lasting 15 min.

The Viral Replication Complex Is Associated with the Virulence of Newcastle Disease Virus [PDF]
Virulent strains of Newcastle disease virus ([NDV] also known as avian paramyxovirus type 1) can be discriminated from low-virulence strains by the presence of multiple basic amino acid residues at the proteolytic cleavage site of the fusion (F) protein.

Bacterial Interactions in the Context of Chronic Wound Biofilm: A Review
Chronic wounds, defined by their resistance to care after four weeks, are a major concern, affecting millions of patients every year. They can be divided into three types of lesions: diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), pressure ulcers (PU), and venous/arterial ...

The coevolution of virulence : tolerance in perspective [PDF]
Coevolutionary interactions, such as those between host and parasite, predator and prey, or plant and pollinator, evolve subject to the genes of both interactors.

Biofilms in Diabetic Foot Ulcers: Significance and Clinical Relevance
Foot infections are the main disabling complication in patients with diabetes mellitus. These infections can lead to lower-limb amputation, increasing mortality and decreasing the quality of life. Biofilm formation is an important pathophysiology step in

Structural characterisation of the virulence-associated protein VapG from the horse pathogen Rhodococcus equi [PDF]
Virulence and host range in Rhodococcus equi depends on the variable pathogenicity island of their virulence plasmids. Notable gene products are a family of small secreted virulence-associated proteins (Vaps) that are critical to intramacrophagic ...

Synergistic Effect of Propolis and Antibiotics on Uropathogenic Escherichia coli
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common bacterial infections around the world. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is among the main pathogens isolated in UTIs.

The KdpD/KdpE two-component system : integrating K+ homeostasis and virulence [PDF]
The two-component system (TCS) KdpD/KdpE, extensively studied for its regulatory role in potassium (K+) transport, has more recently been identified as an adaptive regulator involved in the virulence and intracellular survival of pathogenic bacteria ...
