Antimicrobial-resistant ESKAPE (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter species) pathogens represent a global threat to human health. The acquisition of antimicrobial resistance genes by ESKAPE pathogens has reduced the treatment options for serious infections, increased the burden of disease, and increased death rates due to treatment failure and requires a coordinated global response for antimicrobial...
Antiviral drugs have traditionally been developed by directly targeting essential viral components. However, this strategy often fails due to the rapid generation of drug-resistant viruses. Recent genome-wide approaches, such as those employing small interfering RNA (siRNA) or clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) or those using small molecule chemical inhibitors targeting the cellular "kinome," have been used successfully to identify cellular factors that can support...

In Racism without Racists, Eduardo Bonilla-Silva articulates why "color blindness," an ethos based on the belief that race is no longer relevant, is contradictory and harmful. Color-blind policies, such as race-neutral mortgage practices and Medicare and Medicaid rules, have resulted in…

Purpose of review Omalizumab has been proposed for controlling adverse reactions during drug desensitization. Our aim is to know the current evidence involving the use of omalizumab in drug-allergy desensitization. Recent findings Drug-allergy desensitization is not risk free, but it is a useful procedure and has been applied for drug hypersensitivity reactions with mast cells degranulation through IgE and non-IgE mechanisms. Since 2007, omalizumab has been considered as a potential strategy...

Abstract Over the last decade next generation sequencing (NGS) has been extensively used to identify new pathogenic mutations and genes causing rare genetic diseases. The efficient analyses of NGS data is not trivial and requires a technically and biologically rigorous pipeline that addresses data quality control, accurate variant filtration to minimize false positives and false negatives, and prioritization of the remaining genes based on disease genomics and physiological knowledge....

Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update their 2006 opinion on ochratoxin A (OTA) in food. OTA is produced by fungi of the genus Aspergillus and Penicillium and found as a contaminant in various foods. OTA causes kidney toxicity in different animal species and kidney tumours in rodents. OTA is genotoxic both in vitro and in vivo; however, the mechanisms of genotoxicity are unclear. Direct and indirect genotoxic and non‐genotoxic modes of action might each contribute to tumour formation....

Young children rely on their parents with respect to oral health routines. However, parental knowledge on this topic is often insufficient. Well‐child care may be an excellent route to reach parents because almost all of them attend. To evaluate the effectiveness of an 8.5 min web‐based film about oral health, provided by well‐child care, a non‐blinded quasi‐experimental study was performed. Parents attending well‐child care clinics in the Netherlands were assigned to an intervention (n = 88) or...
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the micro‐tensile bond strength (μTBS) of composite bonded to human occlusal sclerotic dentin following different surface treatments to determine the sclerotic dentin morphology. Human molars without (normal dentin; group 1) or with occlusal wear (sclerotic dentin; groups 2–5) were divided and subjected to different surface treatments, including the normal protocol for the Contax self‐etch bonding system (group 1 and 2); doubled etch‐prime time (group...
Using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), this study investigated the characteristics of smear layers after preparation of dentin surfaces using different methods. In addition, this study analyzed, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the interactions of smear layers with the various acidic agents used subsequently to treat the dentin surface. Mid‐coronal dentin surfaces were prepared according to one of five instrumentation methods: fracture; grinding with carbide bur; grinding with regular‐grit...
In order to evaluate the influence of 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF) application on enamel and dentin bond stability of universal adhesives in self‐etch mode, a 38% SDF and three universal adhesives were used in this study. Initial shear bond strength (ISBS), fatigue bond strength (FBS), and shear bond strength of survivors (SBSS) to enamel and dentin of universal adhesives in self‐etch mode, with and without SDF application, were determined. SDF was applied to the polished enamel or dentin surface...

Individual and group data were analyzed and then compared to unaided and AHA data. Adverse effects, device complaints, and clinical utility...
The auditory brainstem response (ABR) is a commonly used objective clinical measure for hearing evaluation. It can be also used to draw conclusions about the functioning of distinct stages of the auditory pathway including the binaural processing stages using the binaural interaction component (BIC) of the ABR. Objective: To study binaural processing in normal hearing subjects complaining of tinnitus. Methods: Sixty cases with bilateral normal peripheral hearing were included in this work, divided...
