Background: A variety of probiotics have been utilized as chassis strains and engineered to develop the synthetic probiotics for disease treatment. Among these probiotics, Lactobacilli, which are generally viewed as safe and capable of colonizing the gastrointestinal tract effectively, are widely used. We review recent advancements in the engineering of Lactobacilli for disease treatment. Specifically, the Lactobacilli that are used for the construction of synthetic probiotics, the application of these engineered strains for diseases treatment, and the therapeutic outcomes of these engineered microbes are summarized in this review. Moreover, the applications of these engineered strains for disease treatment are categorized based on their engineering strategies. Of note, we compare the advantages and disadvantages of various engineering strategies and offer insights for the future development of genetically modified Lactobacillus strains with stable and safe properties.
Short Conclusion: Our study comprehensively reviews researches on engineering diverse Lactobacillus strains for disease treatment, categorized by their engineering strategies, and emphasizes the importance of developing synthetic probiotics with stable and safe characteristics to enhance their therapeutic applications.

Division of Dermatology, Department of Medicine, Queen's University, Kingston, ON, Canada.
Background: For optimal control of atopic dermatitis (AD), patient education is essential to complement traditional therapy. Patient education has proven to benefit AD outcomes, but previous methods of delivery are costly and time-consuming.
Objective: To assess the effectiveness of a one-page pictorial education tool at improving AD quality of life (QoL) and disease severity.
Should Calcium Supplementation be Abandoned in Patients With Calcinosis Cutis?

Division of Dermatology, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada.
Calcinosis cutis, characterized by the pathological deposition of insoluble calcium salts in the skin, is associated with several disease entities, particularly autoimmune conditions such as scleroderma and dermatomyositis. Lesions of calcinosis are often painful, prone to ulceration, and significantly impair quality of life. Despite the clinical impact, no effective treatments have been established to date, making prevention of this condition a critical priority.

Objective: We analyzed the long-term safety and effectiveness of fenfluramine (FFA) in patients with Dravet syndrome (DS) in an open-label extension (OLE) study after participating in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or commencing FFA de novo as adults.
Methods: Patients with DS who participated in one of three RCTs or were 19 to 35 years of age and started FFA de novo were included. Key endpoints were: incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) in the safety population, and median percentage change in monthly convulsive seizure frequency (MCSF) from the RCT baseline to end of study (EOS) in the modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population.

Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford University, Stanford, California.
Importance: Outcomes in patients with diabetes after fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using current-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) compared with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are unknown.
Objectives: To investigate the relative treatment effect of PCI vs CABG according to diabetes status with respect to major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) at 3 years and to evaluate the impact of the SYNTAX score.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This is a prespecified subgroup analysis of the FAME (Fractional Flow Reserve vs Angiography for Multivessel Evaluation) 3 trial, an investigator-initiated, randomized clinical trial conducted at 48 centers worldwide.
