PrEP Use and Willingness Cascades Among Transgender Women in 11 Asian Countries: Findings From the PrEP APPEAL Cross-Sectional Online Survey

The 2022 PrEP APPEAL online survey included 1,178 transgender women in 11 Asian countries. Awareness was 80.0%; among those aware, 62.6% had ever used PrEP, and 78.1% of ever-users were current users. Among higher-risk PrEP-naïve respondents, 60.0% were willing to use it, but only 34.0% of those willing would pay. Healthcare discrimination was associated with lower lifetime use; causality cannot be inferred.

Gut microbiome modulation by Veillonella ratti induces resistance to EAE pathogenesis via microbe-derived metabolites

In a mouse experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis model, infant-derived Veillonella ratti MHL0042 reshaped gut microbiota, reduced CD4+ IFN-gamma T cells and lowered activated spinal-cord microglia. The proposed mechanism involves depletion of pldA-containing bacteria and increased dioleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) in the gut, circulation and central nervous system. Exogenous DOPE reproduced attenuation of disease and microglial activation.

Processing-dependent reinforcing behavior of garlic peel and pineapple leaf fibers in poly(butylene succinate) all-biocomposites

Poly(butylene succinate) composites containing 10 or 20 wt% garlic-peel or pineapple-leaf fiber were milled and compression-molded at 120 or 150 C. Pineapple fiber retained a higher effective aspect ratio, but this did not translate proportionally into flexural improvement. Flexural behavior depended strongly on orientation and molding temperature, favoring longitudinal specimens and 120 C, while impact behavior followed different trends.

Antifungal susceptibility profiles of clinical and environmental Scedosporium and Lomentospora isolates from Taiwan: focus on olorofim activity and phylogenetic heterogeneity

CLSI M38-A3 testing covered 216 Taiwanese clinical and environmental isolates: 205 Scedosporium and 11 Lomentospora prolificans. L. prolificans was pan-resistant to tested agents except olorofim, while olorofim had MIC90 values at or below 0.12 mg/L across taxa. Most MIC variability, 72.5-89.2%, occurred within rather than between species, limiting species identity as a susceptibility proxy and supporting isolate-level testing.

Exploring the antioxidant and prebiotic potential of fermented Thai jasmine rice beverage: An in vitro study

Thai KDML 105 jasmine-rice amazake was compared with unfermented rice and Japanese amazake. Fermentation increased phenolic content over unfermented rice. DPPH inhibition was 70.34% for the Thai beverage versus 65.71% for Japanese amazake, while ABTS inhibition was lower (53.57% versus 95.42%). Lactobacillus plantarum grew well and exceeded the IMO reference, whereas E. coli growth did not differ. These are in vitro functional signals, not demonstrated human prebiotic benefits.
