Impedance mapping with high-density microelectrode array chips reveals dynamic heterogeneity of in vitro epithelial barriers by Alessandra Venz, Bastien Duckert, Liesbet Lagae, Saeedeh Ebrahimi Takalloo, Dries Braeken

“…The |Z| 1kHz maps of proliferating Caco-2 cells and the differentiating epithelial tissue developing 3D domes aligned with the corresponding optical images at cellular resolution, which demonstrates the capability of the chip in tracking the dynamic heterogeneity of Caco-2 tissues in a label free and real-time fashion. Importantly, |Z| 1kHz maps acquired during chemically induced barrier disruption showed electrodes covered with 3D cell domes experienced a stronger decrease in impedance than those covered with adherent cells (-41% ± sd 10% against -16% ± sd 10%, respectively). …”

Systematic review of reviews on interventions to engage men and boys as clients, partners and agents of change for improved sexual and reproductive health and rights by Sanyukta Mathur, Julie Pulerwitz, Ann Gottert, Jesse Werner, Renay Weiner, Chantalle Okondo, Sarah Magni

“…Remaining evidence gaps include engaging men as contraceptive users, sexually transmitted infections other than HIV, preventing unsafe abortion and SGBV as experienced by men and boys.Conclusions There is substantial evidence supporting a range of successful interventions to engage men and boys to improve SRHR, with markedly similar principles and approaches emerging across SRHR domains. It is time to scale up and integrate these strategies, monitoring for any potential harms and tailoring as needed to socio-cultural contexts and for specific vulnerable subpopulations.…”
