Web-based searching for abortion information during health emergencies: a case study of Brazil during the 2015/2016 Zika outbreak

open access: yesSexual and Reproductive Health Matters, 2021
Sexual and reproductive health needs and access are often neglected during health emergencies. The 2015/2016 Zika epidemic is an example of priorities shifting to the detriment of women’s health needs.

Lymph‐based liquid biopsy: Current progress and future potential

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Recent evidence under the revised Starling principle indicates that lymph‐based liquid biopsies may offer superior diagnostic performance over blood‐based counterparts in certain clinical scenarios, such as early‐stage solid tumor detection. Currently, various biomarkers within the lymphatic system show significant diagnostic potential for a range of ...

Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chip models for investigating the pathophysiology of the human reproductive system

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chips are advancing reproductive system research. In the female reproductive system, applications include cancer organoid models, placental chips, and hormone simulation models. For the male reproductive system, research focuses on drug resistance mechanisms, co‐culture platforms, and infertility studies. These refined in vitro

The Developmental Transcriptome of Aedes albopictus, a Major Worldwide Human Disease Vector

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Aedes albopictus mosquitoes are important vectors for a number of human pathogens including the Zika, dengue, and chikungunya viruses. Capable of displacing Aedes aegypti populations, this mosquito adapts to cooler environments which increases its ...

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Vector-Borne Transmission of the Zika Virus Asian Genotype in Europe

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Three autochthonous cases of Zika virus occurred in southern France in August 2019. Diagnosis relied on serology and transcription-mediated amplification. Attempts for virus isolation and ZIKV genome RT-PCR detection remained negative.

Weathering the storms of climate change: Preparing persons with disabilities and the physiatrists who provide their care for extreme hurricanes

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐driven disasters have disproportionate and often devastating consequences on individuals with disabilities. Warming ocean and air temperatures are fueling more extreme tropical cyclones, further endangering those living in at‐risk regions.

Detecting extirpation: A localized approach to a global problem

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The global biodiversity crisis stems from a cascading series of extirpations driving species toward extinction. Addressing this crisis requires methods for early detection of extinction at local scales, where communities can mobilize conservation efforts.

Bounding bias due to selection

open access: yes, 2019
When epidemiologic studies are conducted in a subset of the population, selection bias can threaten the validity of causal inference. This bias can occur whether or not that selected population is the target population, and can occur even in the absence ...
