In 2017, state health departments notified the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about 4 patients with shigellosis who experienced persistent illness after treatment with oral third-generation cephalosporins. Given increasing antibiotic resistance among , these cases highlight the need to evaluate the efficacy of oral cephalosporins for shigellosis.

Systematic development and bioprinting of novel nanostructured multi-material bioinks for bone tissue engineering.

A functional bioink with potential in bone tissue engineering must be subjected to critical investigation throughout its intended lifespan. The aim of this study was to develop alginate-gelatin-based (Alg-Gel) multicomponent bioinks systematically and to assess the short- and long-term exposure responses of human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) printed within these bioinks with and without crosslinking. The first generation of bioinks was established by incorporating a range of cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs), to evaluate their effect on viscosity, printability and cell viability.

Microplastics (MPs) and Nanoplastics (NPs), a burgeoning health hazard, often go unnoticed due to suboptimal analytical tools, making their way inside our bodies through various means. Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS), although is utilized in detecting NPs, challenges arise at low concentrations due to their low Raman cross section and inability to situate within hotspots owing to their ubiquitous size and shape. This study presents an innovative and cost-effective approach employing household metallic foils (aluminium and copper) as nanoparticle-on-film (NPoF) substrates for targeting such analytes.

Molecular characterization of the oral microbiome is a crucial first step in experiments which aim to understand the complex dynamics of the oral microbiome or the interplay with host health and disease. Third-generation Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) offers advanced long-read sequencing capabilities, which hold promise for improved molecular characterization by distinguishing closely related microbial species within oral ecosystems in health and disease states. However, the performance of ONT sequencing of oral samples requires validation, and the consistency of this approach across different analytical and sampling conditions is not well understood.

Article Synopsis
- Furmonertinib is a third generation EGFR-TKI used to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which often coexists with venous thromboembolism (VTE) that is treated using direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) like rivaroxaban and apixaban.
- This study investigated how furmonertinib affects the pharmacokinetics of these DOACs in rats, revealing that it significantly increases the concentration and overall exposure (C and AUC) of both rivaroxaban and apixaban while decreasing their clearance (CL/F) and volume of distribution (V/F).
- The findings highlight the importance of recognizing furmonertinib’s impact on

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of two third-generation resorbable biomaterials-F18 bioglass and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)-in promoting new bone formation in post-extraction sockets in rats. β-TCP, a synthetic porous ceramic, is well-established in clinical use, while F18 bioglass, a novel silica based bioglass.
Methods: After extraction of the right upper incisor of 45 rats, the sockets were filled either with F18 or β-TCP, or left to naturally fill with a blood clot in control group.
