Stewardship of Molecular Diagnostics in Transplant Viral Infections

Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 28, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The transplant environment requires special considerations when testing for viral infections as immunosuppression results in atypical infection profiles. Microbes otherwise considered commensals or causing mild disease can lead to severe infections in transplant environments. Therefore, guidelines tend to recommend broader microbial testing in

Assessing Nanopore Targeted Sequencing for the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Infections: A Comparative Multidisease Approach

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Pulmonary infections remain a significant global health burden, particularly in immunocompromised individuals and patients with chronic respiratory or systemic diseases. Conventional microbiological tests (CMTs), though widely used, often have limited sensitivity and delayed results, especially in polymicrobial or atypical infections.

Noninfectious Necrotizing Aortitis With Predominantly Neutrophilic Infiltrate

Case Reports in Pathology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Aortitis can be either infectious or noninfectious, and cases of noninfectious aortitis are not well understood. Our study presents a case of noninfectious ascending aortitis in a relatively young, previously healthy man, characterized by a predominantly neutrophilic infiltrate on histopathological examination without an inciting microorganism.

A Case of Late Onset and Rapidly Progressive Central Nervous System Post‐transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder

Case Reports in Oncological Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Post‐transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare but serious complication of chronic immunosuppression in transplant recipients. Although previously thought to occur primarily in the first year post‐transplant, emerging data suggests a second peak in incidence in those who survive greater than 10 years after transplantation ...
