#ESCMIDGlobal2026 is where we come together as a community. It's a place where you can meet up with your colleagues and peers from around the world and catch up on the latest cutting edge science in the field of infectious disease! Join us this April: escmid.org/congress-event…

Disrupting bacterial communication signals to treat diseases is not always beneficial. This is what a new study led by @KimInGeneva (#UNIGE} and @HarisAntypas (@NTUsg) shows. ow.ly/KHFU50Yk5iz

Open Access: Dupilumab Treatment Is Associated With Clinical Improvement and a Shift Toward a Health-Associated Nasal Passage Microbiota in Diffuse Type 2 Chronic Rhinosinusitis. First author: Fabio S. Ryser; corresponding author: Silvio D. Brugger Read the article here: doi.org/10.1111/all.16… This study investigates the longitudinal effects of #dupilumab on the nasal passage and gastrointestinal microbiota in patients with diffuse type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (#CRSwNP). CRSwNP patients show altered nasal microbiota composition compared to healthy individuals. Dupilumab treatment is associated with a shift of nasal microbiota in CRSwNP, with increasing beneficial genera (Lawsonella, Corynebacterium, and Dolosigranulum). Gastrointestinal microbiota remains unchanged during dupilumab treatment.
