Patient engagement with surgical site infection prevention: an expert panel perspective.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Tartari E, Weterings V, Gastmeier P, Rodríguez Baño J, Widmer A, Kluytmans J, Voss A.
PMID: 28507731
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2017 May 12;6:45. doi: 10.1186/s13756-017-0202-3. eCollection 2017.

Despite remarkable developments in the use of surgical techniques, ergonomic advancements in the operating room, and implementation of bundles, surgical site infections (SSIs) remain a substantial burden, associated with increased morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. National and international recommendations...

Of means and ends: The financialization and regulation of health care.

Bacillus cereus is an important cause of foodborne infectious disease and food poisoning. However, B. cereus has also been used as a probiotic in human medicine and livestock production, with low standards of safety assessment. In this study, we...

Anticancer Dose Adjustment for Patients with Renal and Hepatic Dysfunction: From Scientific Evidence to Clinical Application.

Scientia pharmaceutica

Hendrayana T, Wilmer A, Kurth V, Schmidt-Wolf IG, Jaehde U.
PMID: 28264440
Sci Pharm. 2017 Feb 27;85(1). doi: 10.3390/scipharm85010008.

Most anticancer agents exhibit a narrow therapeutic index, i.e., a small change in plasma concentrations can lead to a less efficacious treatment or an unacceptable degree of toxicity. This study aimed at providing health professionals with a feasible and...

Bottom-Up Synthesis of Metalated Carbyne.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

Sun Q, Cai L, Wang S, Widmer R, Ju H, Zhu J, Li L, He Y, Ruffieux P, Fasel R, Xu W.
PMID: 26780188
J Am Chem Soc. 2016 Feb 03;138(4):1106-9. doi: 10.1021/jacs.5b10725. Epub 2016 Jan 20.

Because of stability issues, carbyne, a one-dimensional chain of carbon atoms, has been much less investigated than other recent carbon allotropes such as graphene. Beyond that, metalation of such a linear carbon nanostructure with regularly distributed metal atoms is...

Specimen Referral Network to Rapidly Scale-Up CD4 Testing: The Hub and Spoke Model for Haiti.

Journal of AIDS & clinical research

Louis FJ, Osborne AJ, Elias VJ, Buteau J, Boncy J, Elong A, Dismer A, Sasi V, Domercant JW, Lauture D, Balajee SA, Marston BJ.
