The role of neutrophils in the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel diseases
Abstract Objectives Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses a spectrum of chronic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, with a potential bidirectional relationship with periodontitis. Neutrophils are key regulators of immune‐inflammatory responses and play a major role in both diseases.

ABSTRACT Toxoplasmosis has long been recognized as a serious complication in immunocompromised host, particularly those with advanced HIV/AIDS, hematopoietic stem‐cell transplantation (HSCT), solid‐organ transplant (SOT), and hematological malignancies. The rapid expansion of targeted immunomodulators, including chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (CAR‐T)

ABSTRACT This retrospective analysis evaluated 12 dogs with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Dogs received between 6 and 25 Grey (Gy) per fraction for 1–5 fractions for a total dose of 13–30 Gy. Eleven patients (92%) experienced acute adverse effects (AE), with the majority being VRTOG grade 2–3 ...

Parenteral iron—Does it increase infection risk?
Abstract Background and Objectives Iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) are prevalent conditions impacting various patient populations, both surgical and non‐surgical conditions. The advent of patient blood management (PBM) has promoted intravenous (IV) iron therapy as an alternative to oral iron and blood transfusions.

Animal model for anaerobic lung abscess.
There are no satisfactory animal models for the study of anaerobic lung abscess. Aspiration of food, gastric mucin, or hydrochloric acid, or any combination of these, along with oropharyngeal bacteria, is commonly believed to cause aspiration pneumonia ...

Lung abscess versus necrotizing pneumonia: implications for interventional therapy
Objective. To assess and contrast the role of interventional therapy for two types of cavitating pneumonias: lung abscess and necrotizing pneumonia. Materials and methods. We retrospectively reviewed the imaging, interventional therapy, and outcome of 14

De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.
