Histo-blood group glycans in the context of personalized medicine [PDF]
Background: A subset of histo-blood group antigens including ABO and Lewis are oligosaccharide structures which may be conjugated to lipids or proteins. They are known to be important recognition motifs not only in the context of blood transfusions, but also in infection and cancer development.

This study uses a large multinational database to examine long‐term outcomes of adult temporal bone fractures. The risk for meningitis, labyrinthitis, facial nerve disorders, and cerebrospinal fluid leaks was elevated after fracture. Cochlear implantation was also more likely after temporal bone fracture.

During spread of Streptococcus pneumoniae from the lung to the bloodstream, the pneumococcal pore‐forming toxin pneumolysin (PLY) disrupts apical junction complexes (AJCs) and triggers the transmigration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), which secrete tissue‐destructive neutrophil elastase.

Reduction in respiratory mortality not associated with influenza in Russia: effect of the introduction of pneumococcal vaccination (PCV13), or improvement in care? [PDF]
Background. Pneumococcal vaccination (PCV13) for children (as well as older adults) in Russia was introduced in 2014, with no prior PCV7 use. While pneumonia hospitalization rates, both in children and adults did not decrease in the following years, respiratory mortality rates did decline with time.
