ABSTRACT Objective We aimed to evaluate medical decisions regarding urinary tract infection (UTI), describe associated microorganisms, and assess potential risk factors for percutaneous nephrostomy‐related UTI (UTI‐PN). Methods Oncological patients who underwent percutaneous nephrostomy (PN) were included. We assessed percutaneous nephrostomy procedure‐

Candida glabrata Isolated From Tubo‐Ovarian Abscess Cultures in Two Immunocompetent Patients
Persistent 7.3 × 5.8 cm TOA unresponsive to 4 weeks of antibiotic treatment and percutaneous drainage, growing Candida glabrata on cultures. ABSTRACT In this clinical case report, we present two immunocompetent patients with tubo‐ovarian abscesses (TOAs) that were positive for Candida glabrata.

We report on a patient homozygous for a novel autosomal recessive loss‐of‐function CARD11 variant, with susceptibility to live attenuated virus (LAV) vaccines and impaired clearance of multiple naturally acquired respiratory viral infections. Inborn errors of immunity affecting the CARD11‐BCL10‐MALT1 (CBM) complex should be considered in individuals ...

This article highlights the crucial role of starter culture selection in shaping the peptide profile of fermented dairy drinks. Using high‐throughput peptidome profiling, the study demonstrates that different starter cultures yield distinct quantities and types of bioactive peptides, with excessive microbial combinations potentially reducing peptide ...

Clostridium perfringens forms heat‐resistant spores that complicate food safety. Physical methods (thermal processing, HPP, vacuum cooling, ozone treatments) and chemical interventions (natural antimicrobials, phosphates, nitrate/nitrite, organic acids) reduce vegetative cells and spores, though spore resistance remains a major challenge in food and ...
