Protein Antigens Increase the Protective Efficacy of a Capsule-Based Vaccine against Staphylococcus aureus in a Rat Model of Osteomyelitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Staphylococcus aureus is an invasive bacterial pathogen, and antibiotic resistance has impeded adequate control of infections caused by this microbe. Moreover, efforts to prevent human infections with single-component S. aureus vaccines have failed.

Radiological Findings Post Autologous Fat Grafting and Breasts Procedures: Avoiding False Positive Results

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
This article highlights the importance of understanding the imaging features and complications of fat necrosis and oil cysts to improve diagnostic accuracy and clinical management. A rational diagnostic sequence—emphasizing comparison with prior imaging, careful evaluation of morphological changes, and judicious use of biopsy—can reduce unnecessary ...

Skin Cancers in Australian Liver Transplant Recipients: Risk Factors and Histology

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Skin cancer is one of the most common comorbidities for liver transplant recipients (LTRs). Carcinogenesis is a multifaceted process: immunosuppression and personal risk factors such as smoking status, UV exposure, past history of skin cancer and family history of skin cancer can all play a significant role in determining the extent

Safety of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Prior to Liver Transplantation in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Patients who received immune checkpoint inhibitors before liver transplant for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma had rejection and survival outcomes comparable to those without ICI exposure. Most rejection episodes were effectively managed with medical therapy.

Assessing Major Adverse Liver Outcomes With Baclofen Compared to Acamprosate in Compensated Alcohol‐Associated Cirrhosis

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
We conducted a nationwide, multicenter cohort study using a target trial emulation framework to compare baclofen and acamprosate in patients with compensated alcohol‐associated cirrhosis. After matching, baclofen initiation was associated with a higher 1‐year risk of major adverse liver outcomes, driven primarily by hepatic encephalopathy, particularly

Seladelpar Improved Itch, Itch‐Related Sleep Disturbance and Measures of Fatigue in Patients With Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Pruritus in the Phase 3 RESPONSE Trial

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Seladelpar improved itch, itch‐related sleep disturbance and measures of fatigue in patients with primary biliary cholangitis and pruritus in the Phase 3 RESPONSE trial. ABSTRACT Background Pruritus and fatigue impose a significant burden on patient quality of life in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).

The effect of adding gentamicin to contrast media for prevention of cholangitis after biliary stenting for non-calculous biliary obstruction, a randomized controlled trial

open access: yes, 2013
Aim: Cholangitis is the most common infectious complication of ERCP. In vitro studies showed that addition of aminoglycosides to contrast medium was effective in reducing cholangitis but the results of clinical trials are conflicting.

Sarcopenia Is Associated With Mortality and Progression of Cirrhosis in Decompensated but Not Compensated Disease—A Multicentre Study

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In a retrospective cohort of 1,624 adults with cirrhosis, sarcopenia was independently associated with unplanned hospitalization, death, and cirrhosis progression (or death) in patients with decompensated disease. In compensated cirrhosis, sarcopenia was associated only with a higher risk of unplanned hospitalization.

Diagnostic Impact of Liver Biopsy Among Antinuclear Antibody Positive Individuals With Mild Liver Enzyme Elevation

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In ANA‐positive patients with suspected autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy rarely altered therapeutic management when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was below 101 U/L and cirrhosis was absent. These findings suggest that biopsy may be safely deferred in this low‐risk group.

Associations between TMEM106B C‐terminal fragment aggregation, age, and TDP‐43 or tau pathology

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
TMEM106B C‐terminal fragment (CTF) aggregation represents an age‐associated, common, diffuse phenomenon emerging after midlife with a weak association with TDP‐43 or tau pathology. These findings suggest that TMEM106B fibrillization may define a distinct axis of protein aggregation in the aging human brain. Abstract Transmembrane protein 106B (TMEM106B)
