Meropenem‐Heparin Lock Therapy for Ochrobactrum intermedium Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infection in a Pediatric Hemodialysis Patient: A Case Report and Literature Review

Hemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In pediatric hemodialysis patients with exhausted vascular access, managing rare pathogens like Ochrobactrum intermedium is challenging, often posing a dilemma between catheter removal and salvage attempts. There are few reports on the supported viability of meropenem‐heparin lock therapy for this purpose in pediatric patients. Case

Changes in standard of candidates taking the MRCP(UK) Part 1 examination, 1985 to 2002: Analysis of marker questions [PDF]

, 2005
The maintenance of standards is a problem for postgraduate medical examinations, particularly if they use norm-referencing as the sole method of standard setting. In each of its diets, the MRCP(UK) Part 1 Examination includes a number of marker questions,

Stewardship of Molecular Diagnostics in Transplant Viral Infections

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transplant environment requires special considerations when testing for viral infections as immunosuppression results in atypical infection profiles. Microbes otherwise considered commensals or causing mild disease can lead to severe infections in transplant environments. Therefore, guidelines tend to recommend broader microbial testing in

Immunomodulatory effects of cathelicidin in the gut–brain axis: A novel link between mucosal immunity and neuroinflammation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cathelicidins are evolutionarily conserved host defence peptides known for their dual antimicrobial and immunomodulatory functions. Among them, LL‐37 in humans and CRAMP in rodents have emerged as crucial regulators of both mucosal immunity and CNS inflammation.

Interleukin-10 negatively regulates local cytokine and chemokine production but does not influence antibacterial host defense during murine pneumococcal meningitis. [PDF]

, 2003
To determine the role of endogenous interleukin-10 (IL-10) in local host defense during pneumococcal meningitis, the inflammatory responses of IL-10-gene-deficient and wild-type mice after the induction of meningitis were compared.
