Fungal infection of the colon

Clinical and Experimental Gastroenterology, 2014
Fungi are pathogens that commonly infect immunocompromised patients and can affect any organs of the body, including the colon. However, the literature provides limited details on colonic infections caused by fungi. This article is an intensive review of information available on the fungi that can cause colon infections.

Risk management externalities in agrifood supply chains

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Firms may under‐ or over‐invest in risk management from the social planner's perspective, resulting in a negative externality on other economic agents in the supply chain. The externality of risk management is particularly relevant for agrifood supply chains, which frequently experience disruptions and play a primary role in preventing major ...

Affected Persons in Laboratory Exposures to Human Pathogens and Toxins in Canada, 2016–2024: A Sector‐Specific Analysis

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Exposures to human pathogens and toxins in licensed facilities in Canada have been monitored by a federal surveillance system since 2015, yet the affected persons (APs) in these incidents remain uncharacterized. This study comprehensively describes APs, highlighting sector‐specific patterns and trends over time.

Complications and Clinical Outcomes Following Modified Endoscopic Denker's With Pyriform Aperture Preservation: A Prospective Analysis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The modified endoscopic Denker's (MED) approach provides access to all maxillary sinus (MS) walls for resection of various MS and retromaxillary pathologies, but the anteromedial maxilla has historically been resected. This study determined complication rates and outcomes following MED with pyriform aperture (PA) preservation ...

Microbial‐Metabolite Signatures Are Associated With Glucocorticoid Responsiveness in Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) exhibit heterogeneous responses to oral glucocorticoids (GCs), but the biological basis of this variability remains unclear. Objective To identify gut microbiome‒plasma metabolomic signatures associated with GC responsiveness in CRSwNP patients and to compare their ...

The Mixed Neutrophilic–Eosinophilic Endotype of CRSwNP Blunts Postsurgical Improvement as Determined by the Completeness of Surgery Index

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Completeness of Surgery Index (CoSI) is a novel metric for assessing surgical quality in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Structured histopathology (SHP) is helpful for characterizing drivers of inflammation. Integrating these two tools to identify patients at higher risk for surgically recalcitrant disease has

Biocatalysts for Peptide Geranylation With Linear and Cyclic Prenyl Groups

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A combination of genome mining, synthetic biology, and biocatalytic assays revealed enzymes that install linear and cyclized prenyl moieties on ribosomally or chemically synthesized peptides. The promiscuity of both enzymes, while being specific for modification of C‐terminal tryptophans, enables enzymatic access to peptide terpenoid hybrids.
