Laparoscopic Partial Splenectomy for a Giant Congenital Splenic Cyst in a Child: Case Report and Focused Literature Review

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT An 11‐year‐old boy with a 16 × 14.5 cm congenital splenic cyst underwent laparoscopic upper‐pole partial splenectomy after negative hydatid workup and vaccination. Recovery was uneventful; histology confirmed epithelial cyst. Spleen‐preserving surgery provided durable symptom relief and preserved function.

Prevention of invasive pneumococcal diseases: beyond cultures [PDF]

The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, 2014
Although vaccine efficacy is traditionally reported as a relative measure of disease incidence (e.g. 90% efficacy), the consideration of absolute estimates of disease prevented is necessary for a complete assessment of vaccination effects.1,2 This is particularly relevant for studies in which the endpoint definition has a low sensitivity.

‘I Think From the Beginning, the Ambitions Were Compromised’: A Case Study of COVAX as Vaccine Equity Policy Operationalisation

The International Journal of Health Planning and Management, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 59-70, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background COVAX was designed to support the discovery, development, and distribution of COVID‐19 vaccines globally, at scale and pace. This article examines how COVAX promoted vaccine equity and what lessons can be learnt. Methods Informed by a scoping review of lessons learnt from GHPs, we reviewed 109 documents related to COVAX and other ...

Primary Antibody Deficiency in Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Call for Immunologic Evaluation Prior to Biologic Therapy

Clinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 144-152, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is prevalent and causes a great negative impact on quality of life. Primary antibody deficiency (PAD) is highly prevalent with CRS compared to the background population. There are efficient treatment options to consider when CRS is a symptom of PAD. The condition seems to be underdiagnosed.

Negative Frequency‐Dependent Selection Promotes Strain Structure in a Plant Pathogen

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
Strains of the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae, defined by the combination of virulence factors known as effectors, exhibit in isolates from the Midwestern US a modular population structure congruent with core genome phylogeny. A stochastic and individual‐based computational model supports a role of negative frequency‐dependent selection in ...
