    Abstract Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a pathogenic bacteria that causes a variety of potentially fatal infections. The emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains of S. aureus has made treatment even more difficult. In recent years, nanoparticles have been used as an alternative therapeutic agent for S. aureus infections. Among various methods for the synthesis of nanoparticles, the method utilizing plant extracts from different parts of a plant, such as root, stem, leaf, flower, seeds, etc. is gaining widespread usage. Phytochemicals present in plant extract are an inexpensive, eco-friendly, natural material that act as reducing and stabilization agent for the nanoparticle synthesis. The utilization of plant-fabricated nanoparticles against S. aureus is currently in trend. The current review discusses recent findings in the therapeutic application of phytofabricated metal-based nanoparticles against Staphylococcus aureus.

    Abstract Immunization has dramatically transformed human and animal health. Since its earliest days, vaccination has served as a fundamental strategy for infectious disease prevention, providing population-level coverage for childhood diseases and seasonal infections, and serving as a rapid response to pandemic pathogens. Yet, there is continued circulation of endemic, emerging, and reemerging pathogens for which there are no licensed prophylactic measures. The successes of nucleic acid technologies during the COVID-19 pandemic, exemplified in the first two licensed mRNA vaccines [1] and the first DNA vaccine receiving emergency use authorization for human use [2], are reinvigorating vaccine development to tackle this urgent unmet need. The inherent stability of DNA offers advantageous features such as thermostability and extended shelf life. These characteristics are pivotal for transport and storage in resource-constrained environments, like low and middle-income countries. Furthermore, the ability to encode large transgenes and well-established modular assembly pipelines are key attributes of DNA-based platforms. This versatility extends to combination strategies of individual DNA vaccines as a multivalent drug product. Multivalent synthetic DNA vaccines are therefore emerging as part of the exciting nucleic acid-based vaccine landscape as a strategy to induce robust and durable immunity in diverse global populations.

    Abstract Background: In the United States, acquired buried penis deformity is an increasingly more common condition. Management of the buried penis deformity is accomplished with removal of macerated skin and subcutaneous tissue from the panniculus and prepubic region, and replacement of denuded penile skin. If local tissue advancement is insufficient to cover the defect, a skin graft may be required. Though the anterior thigh is commonly used, this creates a second defect. Here we describe 2 cases of split-thickness skin grafts harvested from the panniculus to cover buried penis deformities.
    Methods: Two patients with a buried penis deformity were identified. The denuded suprapubic tissue was elevated. Using inferior traction, split-thickness skin grafts were harvested and placed onto the shaft of the penis. The remaining excess tissue was resected.
    Results: One patient had a fungal rash that resolved with topical treatment. The other patient had a hematoma requiring surgical evacuation. Neither patient had any other complications, and both had over 95% take of the split-thickness skin grafts.
    Conclusions: These cases demonstrate the successful use of pannicular skin grafts for buried penis deformity correction. This donor site avoids creation of a second defect. As demonstrated here, the grafts are a durable option, even in the setting of local infection and hematoma.

    Abstract The negotiation for the Post 2020 Global Biodiversity Framework represents a potential threat for small scale fisher peoples. Increasing the number of protected areas by 30% by 2030 is a potential risk for SSF communities, whose lives belong and depend on these ecosystems. Conservation measures often exclude and displace SSF peoples and communities, with consequences for food security, livelihoods and the enjoyment of their human rights. The SSF Guidelines recognize that healthy ecosystems and their associated biodiversity are the fundamental basis for the livelihoods of marine and inland fishing communities and contribute to their overall well-being. This final webinar will look at SSF dependency to the integration of gender, traditional knowledge and human rights into the biodiversity frameworks from the lens of SSF Guidelines.

    Abstract Applications of Natural Language Processing (NLP) are plentiful, from sentiment analysis to text classification. Practitioners rely on static word embeddings (e.g. Word2Vec or GloVe) or static word representation from contextual models (e.g. BERT or ELMo) to perform many of these NLP tasks. These widely available word embeddings are built from large amount of text, so they are likely to have captured most of the vocabulary in different context. However, how well would they capture domain-specific semantics and word relatedness? This paper explores this idea by creating a bank-specific word embeddings and evaluates them against other sources of word embeddings such as GloVe and BERT. Not surprising that embeddings built from bank-specific corpora does a better job of capturing the bank-specific semantics and word relatedness. This finding suggests that bank-specific word embeddings could be a good stand-alone source or a complement to other widely available embeddings when performing NLP tasks specific to the banking industry.

    Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a challenge for ongoing efforts to combat antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) bacterial infections. As we learn more about COVID-19 disease and drug stewardship evolves, there is likely to be a lasting impact of increased use of antimicrobial agents and antibiotics, as well as a lack of consistent access to health care across many populations. Sexually transmitted infections have been underreported during the pandemic and are often caused by some of the most drug-resistant pathogens. In their recent article in
