Opsoclonus in Pediatric Patients: Differential Diagnosis and a Practical Approach to Evaluation
ABSTRACT Opsoclonus is an ocular dyskinesia characterized by involuntary, arrhythmic, multidirectional saccades. In pediatrics, opsoclonus is most commonly attributed to the rare neuroinflammatory disorder opsoclonus‐myoclonus‐ataxia syndrome (OMAS), typically considered a paraneoplastic syndrome associated with neural crest tumors. However, opsoclonus

Long‐Acting Therapeutics in Pediatric Health: Bridging Innovation and Access
Children have distinct therapeutic needs arising from age‐dependent physiology, disease epidemiology, formulation requirements, dosing considerations, and safety vulnerabilities. Despite substantial reductions in childhood mortality over the past three decades, nearly 5 million children under five died in 2023, with infectious diseases continuing to ...

Intestinal Epithelial Memory: From Inflammatory Imprinting to Metabolite‐Shaped Immune Tolerance
ABSTRACT Intestinal epithelial cells are rapidly renewing barrier cells that maintain compartmentalization between the luminal environment and the mucosal immune system through epithelial transport, antimicrobial defense, secretory programs, and cytokine‐mediated communication.

The pneumococcal response to oxidative stress includes a role for Rgg. [PDF]
Streptococcus pneumoniae resides in the oxygen-rich environment of the upper respiratory tract, and therefore the ability to survive in the presence of oxygen is an important aspect of its in vivo survival. To investigate how S.

Abstract Background Antimicrobials are commonly prescribed for the treatment of equine asthma, despite limited evidence supporting their use. Tracheal wash (TW) bacterial culture results are known to influence antimicrobial prescription decisions. Objectives To determine whether a positive TW bacterial culture in horses with asthma is associated with ...

Dominant Role of Nucleotide Substitution in the Diversification of Serotype 3 Pneumococci over Decades and during a Single Infection [PDF]
Streptococcus pneumoniae of serotype 3 possess a mucoid capsule and cause disease associated with high mortality rates relative to other pneumococci. Phylogenetic analysis of a complete reference genome and 81 draft sequences from clonal complex 180, the
