The cGAS–STING Pathway Drives Astrocyte‐Mediated Demyelination in Multiple Sclerosis Through Clusterin Secretion

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
In multiple sclerosis, astrocytes detect extracellular DNA via the cGAS–STING pathway, triggering Clusterin secretion that induces oligodendrocyte apoptosis and demyelination. Pharmacological STING inhibition with H‐151 suppresses this neurotoxic cascade, preserves myelin integrity, and ameliorates clinical disability in experimental autoimmune ...

Pertussis Surveillance in Private Pediatric Practices, France, 2002–2006

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
To the Editor: In France, pertussis epidemiology has been extensively studied since 1993. Immunization of children with a highly efficacious pertussis whole-cell (Pw) vaccine (Sanofi Pasteur MSD, Lyon, France) for 40 years (since 1966) has reduced the incidence of pertussis.

A Small‐Scale Regional External Quality Assessment of Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests for Bordetella pertussis in China

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 16, August 2026.
An external quality assessment (EQA) was conducted to evaluate the performance of nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) for Bordetella pertussis across 69 laboratories in Chongqing, China. Among 345 total reports, 341 (98.8%) were concordant with expected results, while four false negatives occurred in low‐concentration samples near the analytical ...

No increased risk of spinal cerebrospinal fluid leak after spinal manipulative therapy: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesPM&R, Volume 18, Issue 8, Page 874-884, August 2026.
Abstract Background Spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, a rare but debilitating condition, have been described following spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) in case reports. However, the nature of the potential association between SMT and CSF leak is uncertain, and symptoms such as neck pain or headache may reflect preexisting leaks rather than ...
