Protein profile of the Escherichia coli strain, BW25113, exposed to two novel iron-halide compounds: Fe(Hampy)2Cl4 and Fe(Hampy)2Br4.

The mortality rate and economic burden of infections caused by antimicrobial-resistant pathogens are increasingly higher. This frustrating scenario emphasizes the urgent need for developing new antimicrobial drugs. We have previously addressed this problem by studying the antimicrobial activity of two novel iron-halide complexes, Fe(Hampy)2Cl4 (iron tetrachloride) and Fe(Hampy)2Br4 (iron tetrabromide). Both compounds showed bactericidal and antibiofilm activities against bacteria with an antimicrobial resistance phenotype. Herein, we used a proteomic approach to investigate the proteomic profi

Asciminib for Philadelphia chromosome-positive leukemias.

Twenty-five years after the introduction of imatinib, we have entered a new era of therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Despite the development of second- and third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), their impact has been incremental in improving outcomes for CML patients. While frontline use of second-generation TKI has improved molecular response rates and reduced progression to blast phase, there has been no improvement in overall survival compared to that achieved with imatinib, likely due to the higher toxicity and consequent higher non-CML-related mortality. Imatinib rem

Healthcare Transition to Adulthood in Patients with 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome: A Comprehensive Literature Review and Transition Framework.

22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is a complex genetic disorder characterized by a wide range of comorbidities requiring multidisciplinary care across the lifespan.

'Somali parents feel like they're on the outer': Somali mothers' experiences of parent-teacher relationships for their autistic children.

Good relationships between parents and schools can improve autistic children's school success. There are many reasons why families from different cultural backgrounds find it harder to develop good relationships with schools, such as language barriers, discrimination and unfamiliarity with education systems. We know little about what 'good relationships' look like for these families. Here, we worked with a team of autistic and non-autistic researchers as well as an Advisory Group of Somali parents to conduct interviews with 15 Somali mothers of kindergarten and school-age autistic children. We

The VA of 29 participants was meas

Convection-Enhanced Delivery in Children: Techniques and Applications.

Since its first description in 1994, convection-enhanced delivery (CED) has become a reliable method of administering drugs directly into the brain parenchyma. More predictable and effective than simple diffusion, CED bypasses the challenging boundary of the blood brain barrier, which has frustrated many attempts at delivering large molecules or polymers into the brain parenchyma. Although most of the clinical work with CED has been carried out on adults with incurable neoplasms, principally glioblastoma multiforme, an increasing number of studies have recognized its potential for paediatric a

Impedance Planimetry and the Changing Paradigm of Esophageal Dysphagia.

OBJECTIVES: Patients presenting with dysphagia can encounter a pathway to therapy and relief that is expensive and frustrating. High resolution impedance planimetry (HRIP) is a new mechanism for enhancing and possibly hastening that process. A balloon with integrated pressure sensors is utilized to measure luminal geometry and pressure by volume-controlled distention. Esophagogastric junction (EGJ) distensibility and body contractility are assessed at the time of other endoscopic procedures. Here we describe a single-center experience utilizing HRIP in the endoscopic evaluation of patients pre
