Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

The Need for a Revision of Fluoroquinolone Breakpoints for Interpretation of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing of Feline Bacterial Isolates

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fluoroquinolone antimicrobial agents, enrofloxacin and marbofloxacin, were approved in the United States for cats in 1990 and 2001, respectively. In 2023, revised breakpoints for testing isolates from dogs were published. These canine breakpoints are discordant with the current feline breakpoints.

Early Stent Removal at Bedside Decreases Urinary Tract Infection in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Monocentric Prospective Study

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Early bedside removal of the ureteral stent proved feasible and well tolerated, achieving a high level of patient satisfaction. This approach was associated with a reduced incidence of urinary tract infections, without a statistically significant increase in major urological complications. ABSTRACT Background During kidney transplantation, the use of a
