Respiratory Tract Infections in Athletes

open access: yesDisease-a-Month, 2010
The average adult experiences between 2 to 5 upper respiratory infections (URTIs) a year, which is a leading cause of physician visits and missed days of work. URTIs are one of the most common medical conditions affecting athletes. Athletes are often in close contact with others in team locker rooms, at practice, or during travel, all of which increase

Bovine colostrum and immune function after exercise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Strenuous and/or prolonged exercise causes transient perturbations in immune function. It is well accepted that this is one mechanism contributing to the higher occurrence of infection (e.g.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Study of the pattern of lower respiratory tract infection within the first year in renal transplant patients

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2015
Renal transplantation is the most common type of solid organ transplantation, although immunosuppressive therapy is essential for the viability of the graft it leads to increased incidence of infection, especially urinary tract and respiratory tract ...

Aetiological role of viral and bacterial infections in acute adult lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in primary care

open access: yes, 2005
Background: Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) are a common reason for consulting general practitioners (GPs). In most cases the aetiology is unknown, yet most result in an antibiotic prescription.

Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) in a Patient With Compound Heterozygous OPA1 Variants: Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

Comparison of temporal and spatial dynamics of seasonal H3N2, pandemic H1N1 and highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 virus infections in ferrets. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Humans may be infected by different influenza A viruses--seasonal, pandemic, and zoonotic--which differ in presentation from mild upper respiratory tract disease to severe and sometimes fatal pneumonia with extra-respiratory spread.
