Journal ArticleDOI

Antibacterial activity of silver and zinc nanoparticles against Vibrio cholerae and enterotoxic Escherichia coli.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a single oral administration of silver nanoparticles to infant mice colonized with V. cholerae or ETEC significantly reduces the colonization rates of the pathogens by 75- or 100-fold, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Practical Recommendations of the Obesity Management Task Force of the European Association for the Study of Obesity for the Post-Bariatric Surgery Medical Management.

TL;DR: In the present recommendations, the basic notions needed to provide first-level adequate medical care to post-bariatric patients are summarised and a short list of clinical practical recommendations is included.
Journal ArticleDOI

Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes: Two Diseases with a Need for Combined Treatment Strategies - EASO Can Lead the Way.

TL;DR: Therapeutic strategies are warranted, which can be easily used for the management of obese patients with type 2 diabetes to achieve their glycemic and weight loss goals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vibrio cholerae evades neutrophil extracellular traps by the activity of two extracellular nucleases.

TL;DR: A first comprehensive characterization of the interplay between neutrophils and V. cholerae is provided along with new evidence that the innate immune response impacts the colonization of V.Cholerae in vivo, which may enhance survival fitness of the pathogen through NET degradation.
