We also evaluated a novel combined methodology of dynamically measuring the velocity and cross‐sectional area (CA) of voided urine.

This graphical abstract illustrates how acute ischemic stroke may be accompanied by neuroendocrine‐immune dysregulation, represented by a low FT3/FT4 ratio and a high neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio, which together improve early identification of patients at risk for post‐ischemic stroke urinary tract infection.

From Oral Candidiasis to Candidemia: A Review of Superficial to Invasive Progression
Recent and limited evidence indicates that oral candidiasis can disseminate Candida albicans throughout the body, leading to invasive candidiasis, such as candidemia, a life‐threatening infection. Considering antifungal resistance and global outbreaks of emergent non‐albicans Candida and related yeasts, murine models help understand dissemination ...
