Infectious Diseases Papers of the Week

We described screening results and the post-screening management cascade among WLWH receiving HIV care in Nairobi, Kenya.

We analyzed CRE clinical isolates from patients <18 years submitted to CDC's Antimicrobial Resistance Laboratory Network from January 2019 through December 2024.

This article aims to present the specific contribution of population genetics and evolutionary genetics to the molecular tracing of epidemiological routes in bacteria pathogenic to humans and animals.

Because patched 1 (PTCH1), a validated target of miR-511-3p, serves as a key negative regulator of hedgehog (HH) signaling, we hypothesized that miR-511-3p promotes inflammatory responses during sepsis by suppressing PTCH1 expression and consequently activating HH signaling.

We introduce a controlled measurement instrument for evaluating four candidate safeguards: an ordering constraint on when model advice is revealed, the content disclosed to the reviewer, a recorded disposition with a closed reason vocabulary, and aggregate monitoring of the resulting oversight log.

In this study, reverse transcription quantitative PCR was used to examine the gene expression changes of 15 DEAD-box family members in the intestinal tissues of one-month-old PEDV-infected piglets.

This study provides a transferable, data-driven framework that transforms sludge from a waste burden into a managed resource stream, bridging the gap between complex statistical analysis and practical engineering decision-making.

Here, we developed an adenovirus-derived virus-like particle (Ad5VLP) platform that enables modular incorporation of antigen cargo without reconstruction of a complete antigen-encoding adenoviral genome.

We used multiple public data sets to test whether divergent lineages converge on a shared physiological endpoint.

This study investigated whether citrulline ameliorates sepsis-associated immune inflammation and intestinal barrier injury by modulating gut microbiota metabolites.

Although PBVs have been assumed to infect vertebrate hosts, there is neither direct evidence for this nor any culture system to propagate PBVs. Here we demonstrate that a PBV infects bacteria and is therefore an RNA phage.

We analyzed adult CMI-coded hospitalizations undergoing endovascular or open revascularization in the 2006-2020 National Inpatient Sample.

To identify additional 3',3'-cGAMP-binding proteins, we performed a 3',3'-cGAMP-binding screen of the El Tor ORFeome.

We provide explicit bedside guidance for the situations that clinicians find most difficult, including suspected secondary MI, the observe zone, and troponin elevation without a dynamic pattern.

Here, we identify intrinsically disordered antimicrobial peptides, generated from the Drosophila sleep-inducing protein Nemuri, that inhibit bacterial growth by targeting ribosomal organization.
