This journal no longer participates in Medscape Publishers' Circle Program. No new articles will be republished.
A brief synopsis of topics covered at the annual meeting of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, including the latest on stem cell transplantation, fungal infection, and more.
This article highlights the role of bacterial glycosidases during infections, introducing their use as glycoengineering tools. What potential does this emerging field hold for biotherapeutics?
This review highlights recent investigational strategies for prevention and therapy of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, a nosocomial pathogen especially problematic in the immunocompromised.
This article elucidates the consequences of epigenetic modifications of the viral and host cell genomes which occur in EBV-associated lymphomas and carcinomas
This study reports on an in vitro comparative analysis of four microtiter plate-based assays for determination and quantification of the biofilms in S. aureus clinical isolates.
This paper examines the many common features that M. tuberculosis shares with pathogenic fungi. Could better understanding of these shared characteristics elucidate novel strategies for chemotherapy?
This article provides an overview on current laboratory methods for diagnosing potentially life-threatening mucormycosis, with a special focus on new molecular-based tools.
Healthcare providers in long-term care facilities encounter an increasing number of patients with indwelling medical devices. What steps can be taken to reduce the risk of device-related infections?
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common causes of nosocomial infection in intensive care unit patients. Where do we stand on vaccine development?
Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of mortality in chronic kidney disease patients. How might an imbalance in intestinal microbiota contribute to the risk of chronic inflammation and CVD?
Are banknotes and coins making you sick? This interesting review examines money and other fomites as viable modes of transmission for a variety of infections.
This review examines the role of biofilms in commonly encountered infections in long-term care facilities, highlighting catheter-related infections and infected pressure ulcers.
In this review, the authors present M. leprae as a model for investigating the role of the human immune system in host defense and susceptibility to infection.
Human skin serves a vital function as an antimicrobial barrier. By what mechanisms do bacteria such as Staphylococci manage to overcome this barrier and successfully colonize?
Currently, molecular tests are not widely accepted as diagnostic for fungal diseases. This review presents a strategy to accelerate standardization of molecular diagnostics for fungal infections.
This review explores numerous strategies for diagnosis of C. difficile infection, highlighting the most recent development, nucleic acid amplification testing. Is it ready for primetime?
Mission Statement:
There are widespread efforts to elucidate new biologic pathways and gene products in microbiology with a view to developing potential therapeutic strategies to combat or prevent infection.
