Lymphocyte‐C‐Reactive Protein Ratio as Promising New Marker for Predicting Surgical Site Infection in Children With Ulcerative Colitis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 10, Issue 5, Page 1586-1593, September 2026.
This study identifies the preoperative lymphocyte‐to–C‐reactive protein ratio (LCR) as a potent and independent biomarker for predicting surgical site infection (SSI) in pediatric patients undergoing major surgery for ulcerative colitis. ROC analysis established an optimal cutoff of 5000 (AUC: 0.80), which demonstrated robust predictive performance ...

Multiomics analyses revealed the roles of the epithelial–mesenchymal transition and novel early candidate diagnostic biomarkers in neonatal necrotising enterocolitis

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
In infants with necrotising enterocolitis (NEC), excessive inflammation and epithelial cell death promote the epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT), leading to damage to intestinal barriers and the translocation of bacteria and toxins. In addition, inflamed epithelia release cytokines to strengthen the inflammatory response.

Pyridyl‐Imidazopyridine Derivatives Displaying Submicromolar Activity Against Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Previously reported pyridyl‐thiazoles and highly active imidazopyridines against Trypanosoma cruzi inspired the design of a new series of pyridyl‐substituted imidazopyridines. Among the synthesized compounds, 5h emerged as the most promising derivative, displaying potent trypanocidal activity (EC50 = 0.16 μM), excellent selectivity (SI > 1250), and ...
