Admission Plasma Lipopolysaccharide‐binding protein, Procalcitonin, and Lactate for Early Identification of Nosocomial Infection in Cirrhotic Patients With Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding: A Retrospective Analysis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess whether admission plasma lipopolysaccharide‐binding protein (LBP), procalcitonin (PCT), and lactate could improve detection of nosocomial infection in cirrhotic patients presenting with upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB).

Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells‐2 Regulates Innate Lymphoid Cell Levels in Bleomycin‐Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a pathological change causing poor outcomes, is not reversible despite current antifibrotic therapy. Emerging evidence suggests that innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) mediate lung inflammation and fibrosis after stimulation by endogenous factors.

Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Obesity: Pathogenesis, Diagnostics, Risk Stratification, and Therapeutic Approach

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, closely linked to the global rising incidence of obesity and metabolic syndrome. This review synthesizes current evidence on the pathogenesis, gut–liver axis, and multidisciplinary management of MASLD within the ...

Synovial interleukin‐6 point‐of‐care testing, alone and combined with D‐dimer, supports rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Clinical Features and Dental Pathologies in Maxillary Sinus Fungal Balls and Odontogenic Sinusitis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This international, multicenter study compared clinical and dental characteristics of maxillary sinus fungal balls (MSFB), odontogenic MSFB (MSFBO), and odontogenic sinusitis (ODS). When MSFB and MSFBO were compared, MSFBO was associated with extruded root canal material and dental implant protrusion; when MSFBOs and ODS were compared, ODS was ...

Underground Lag: Fungal Community and Edaphic Legacies After Disturbance

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Páramos are neotropical mountain ecosystems that regulate water and store large amounts of carbon, but are increasingly degraded by agriculture and grazing. Although native vegetation often recolonizes after abandonment, belowground recovery remains poorly understood.

Mass spectrometry imaging of N‐linked glycans: Fundamentals and recent advances

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract With implications in several medical conditions, N‐linked glycosylation is one of the most important posttranslation modifications present in all living organisms. Due to their nontemplate synthesis, glycan structures are extraordinarily complex and require multiple analytical techniques for complete structural elucidation.

Urologic Bacteriome: The Hero or the Villain in Prostate Cancer Onset, Progression, and Treatment?

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer in men worldwide and the fifth leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, presenting urgent unmet clinical needs in diagnosis and treatment. The recognition of the microbiome as a key factor in human health has prompted numerous studies, revealing an exciting new approach to ...

Random Chemostats with Competition and Different Kinetics to Investigate the Growth of the Gut Microbiome

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate some chemostat models incorporating wall growth, competition, random fluctuations on the dilution rate, and different consumption functions (Monod and Haldane). We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of the corresponding random differential systems to establish conditions on the model parameters under which the ...
