Amoebae: beyond pathogens- exploring their benefits and future potential.

Amoebae, fascinatingly diverse protists, showcase a dual nature that positions them as both friends and foes in our world. These organisms, defined by their distinctive pseudopodia, span a spectrum from harmful to helpful. On the darker side, species like pose serious health risks, causing intestinal and liver diseases, while the infamous "brain-eating" leads to fatal primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), with a daunting 97% mortality rate.

Home, as a physical place and psychological construct, is often thought of as being an important locus of ontological security across the life course. However, there is a growing awareness of a darker side to the home (see Gurney, 2021), and home-unmaking practices (see Baxter and Brickell, 2014) that challenge the assumptions of home being purely a place of shelter, comfort, and control and instead foreground the temporal, material, and spatial fluidity of the home, and tensions between privacy and the ability to engage in health-harming behaviours largely unnoticed. Here, a material gerontological approach enables a rethinking of how home, and the household objects contained within, can both promote and undermine well-being as we age.

University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland.
Background: Although the direct anterior approach (DAA) represents an intermuscular and internervous approach to total hip arthroplasty (THA), it did not reach global acceptance until its adoption by large teaching centers. Today, >50% of primary THA procedures in Switzerland are performed via the DAA. Besides being truly minimally invasive, a key advantage of the DAA is the inherent stability that it provides.

Apatelodidae is a family of New World bombycoids distributed mainly in the Neotropical region, with 14 genera, 222 valid species and 8 subspecies. These moths are medium-sized with a wingspan ranging from 2 to 8cm, generally greyish, straw-yellow or reddish-brown, with darker spots and lines on the dorsal side of the wings. We combine adult morphology and molecular data to test, under a probabilistic framework, the monophyly of apatelodid genera and the placement of Tamphana (Bombycidae).

Article Synopsis
- Researchers have focused on using phytochemicals to prevent periodontal diseases, but few studies support their effectiveness against dental plaque.
- The study evaluated the antiplaque and antigingivitis effects of specific phytochemical extracts on volunteers, finding one extract to be particularly effective.
- Results showed that this effective extract significantly reduced plaque and had a reasonable antigingivitis effect, comparable to existing commercial treatments.
