U.parvum serovar 6 may be a novel element in the progression of HPV infection to CIN: A cross-sectional study of 7,058 women.

Background: Ureaplasma parvum (U. parvum) is generally regarded as innocuous, and studies focusing on variations in pathogenicity among U. parvum serovars are inadequate.

U. Parvum serovars exhibit distinct pathogenicity in Chinese women of childbearing age: a multicentre cross-sectional study.

Background: Ureaplasma spp. can be classified into different serovars. It is unknown whether distinct serovars are associated with clinical signs and symptoms.

Effectiveness of self-efficacy-enhancing interventions on rehabilitation following total hip replacement: a randomized controlled trial with six-month follow-up.

Background: As the world's population ages, hip replacement, a routine treatment for arthritis, has become more common. However, after surgery, rehabilitation has some limited effectiveness with postoperative complications and persistent impairments. This study aimed to explore the effect of a self-efficacy-enhancing intervention program following hip replacement on patients' rehabilitation outcomes (self-efficacy, functional exercise compliance, hip function, activity and social participation, anxiety and depression, and quality of life).

Large-scale analysis of 2,152 Ig-seq datasets reveals key features of B cell biology and the antibody repertoire.

Antibody repertoire sequencing enables researchers to acquire millions of B cell receptors and investigate these molecules at the single-nucleotide level. This power and resolution in studying humoral responses have led to its wide applications. However, most of these studies were conducted with a limited number of samples.

Vaginal dysbiosis dominated by miscellaneous bacteria correlates with more severe clinical symptoms.

With the development of next-generation sequencing methods, dysbiosis patterns of the vaginal microbiome have been described worldwide, but the correlation between dysbiosis and clinical symptoms, which is crucial for understanding the vaginal microbiome-host interaction, is largely unknown. The present study identified 4 types of community states in 88 women with vaginal dysbiosis. These community state types (CSTs) were dominated by non-iners Lactobacillus (CST1), L.
