SNOMED CT has an enormous number of clinical concepts and mapping to SNOMED CT is considered as the foundation to achieve semantic interoperability in healthcare. Manual mapping is time-consuming and error-prone thus making this crucial step challenging. In addition, hierarchy retrieval of clinical concepts increases the challenges for the user. Terminology Servers provide an interface, which can be used to automate the process of retrieving data. In this work, it is shown that Snowstorm can significantly improve the efficiency of retrieval process if used with semi-automated workflows.

Antibacterials with Novel Chemical Scaffolds in Clinical Development.
Drugs
January 2025
Department of Chemical Biology, Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research, Inhoffenstraße 7, 38124, Braunschweig, Germany.
The rise of antimicrobial resistance represents a significant global health threat, driven by the diminishing efficacy of existing antibiotics, a lack of novel antibacterials entering the market, and an over- or misuse of existing antibiotics, which accelerates the evolution of resistant bacterial strains. This review focuses on innovative therapies by highlighting 19 novel antibacterials in clinical development as of June 2024. These selected compounds are characterized by new chemical scaffolds, novel molecular targets, and/or unique mechanisms of action, which render their potential to break antimicrobial resistance particularly high.

PGT-A, what's it for? Considering the increase in fetal aneuploidies with a woman's age and the high number of miscarriages associated with fetal karyotype anomalies, the concept of selecting IVF embryos based on their karyotype in order to transfer only euploid embryos and eliminate aneuploid ones was proposed. Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) was then established, nearly 30 years ago, with the expectation that the transfer of euploid embryos would lead to a significant improvement in medically assisted reproduction (MAR) outcomes. PGT-A, what's wrong? Despite the practice and widespread use, PGT-A has not consistently proven its effectiveness.

J Patient Rep Outcomes
January 2025
Sanofi US Services, Inc., Bridgewater, NJ, USA.
Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis (inclusive of subtypes with nasal polyps [CRSwNP], without nasal polyps [CRSsNP], and allergic fungal rhinosinusitis [AFRS]) causes inflammation of the nose mucosa and paranasal sinuses. Unfortunately, evidence supporting use of clinical outcome assessments (COAs) in regulated clinical trials to assess key measurement concepts of these conditions is limited.
Objective: To identify key disease-related symptoms and impacts, potential outcomes of interest for new treatments, and COAs available to measure those outcomes among adult and adolescent individuals living with CRSwNP, CRSsNP, and AFRS.
[A case of atopic dermatitis-the biopsychosocial view].

Psychoneuroimmunologie Labor, Klinik für Psychosomatik und Psychotherapie, Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen, Aulweg 123, 35385, Gießen, Deutschland.
Background: Atopic dermatitis is perhaps the most comprehensively studied skin disease in psychosomatic medicine and psychoneuroimmunology. Its biopsychosocial conceptualization incorporates psychodynamic as well as behavioral and systemic considerations. At the same time, there is also extensive biological knowledge of the neuroendocrine-immune control of barrier and immune function, characterized through animal experiments and translational clinical studies.

Psychol Trauma
January 2025
ARQ Centrum'45, ARQ National Psychotrauma Centre.
Objective: In their work, police officers are routinely exposed to potentially traumatic events, some of which may also be morally distressing. Moral injury refers to the multidimensional impact of exposure to such potentially morally injurious events (PMIEs). Mainly originating from a military context, there is little empirical research on moral injury in policing.
