The Challenge of Bacterial Infections During Intensive Care Unit Stay After Heart Transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Infections occurring in the early post–heart transplant (HT) period heavily contribute to morbidity and mortality. Our goal is to evaluate the incidence of hospital‐acquired pneumonia/ventilator‐associated pneumonia (HAP/VAPs) and/or bloodstream infections (BSIs) after HT during the intensive care unit (ICU) stay and identify their ...

The Performance of the Australian–UK–Swiss Clinical Decision Rule for Febrile Neutropenia in Children and Young Adults With Bone and Soft Tissue Sarcomas

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 72, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Febrile neutropenia (FN) episodes in sarcoma patients may be due to potentially life‐threatening microbiologically defined infection (MDI). Clinical decision rules (CDRs) such as the Australian–UK–Swiss (AUS) rule have been developed to risk‐stratify FN episodes, allowing for early discharge of patients at low risk of MDI. The AUS

Are SNPs Linked to Somatic Cell Score Suitable Markers for the Susceptibility to Specific Mastitis Pathogens in Holstein Cows?

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 3, Page 354-361, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Mastitis in cattle is often caused by microorganism infections in the udder. The three most common pathogens are esculin‐positive streptococci (SC+), coagulase‐negative staphylococci (CNS), and Escherichia coli (E. coli). In a previous study, 10 SNPs were associated with somatic cell score and mastitis in diverse Holstein populations.
