Disseminated Spiroplasma apis Infection in Patient with Agammaglobulinemia, France
We report a disseminated infection caused by Spiroplasma apis, a honeybee pathogen, in a patient in France who had X-linked agammaglobulinemia. Identification was challenging because initial bacterial cultures and direct examination by Gram staining were

Optimizing TREC‐ and KREC‐based newborn screening: Risk‐stratified algorithms significantly reduce referrals [PDF]
Abstract Background Newborn screening (NBS) quantifying T‐cell receptor excision circles with or without kappa‐deleting recombination excision circles (TREC, KREC) enables early detection of severe T‐ and/or B‐cell lymphopenia. However, both markers have limited specificity, often resulting in unnecessary referrals.
