Peritoneal Tuberculosis Presenting as Massive Ascites in Pregnancy: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Abdominal tuberculosis, especially peritoneal tuberculosis, is uncommon in pregnancy. The diagnosis during pregnancy is a challenge due to many signs and symptoms being nonspecific and mimicking the symptoms of pregnancy. The presence of ascites, with anorexia and weight loss in pregnancy from endemic regions, should be addressed with ...

Acute and Chronic Leukemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The four primary subgroups of leukemia include chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Very little is known about the regional variation of leukemia and subtypes in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA).

Macrophage: Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Macrophages are sentinel innate immune cells that arise from embryonic precursors and bone marrow monocytes, displaying a functional continuum that transcends the classical M1 (pro‐inflammatory)/M2 (anti‐inflammatory) dichotomy. Under homeostatic conditions, balanced M1/M2 polarization preserves tissue integrity by coordinating immune surveillance ...

Pathogenesis of Tuberculosis: Interplay Between Host Antituberculosis Immunity and Immune Evasion Strategies of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis–host interactions and infection outcomes. Following initial infection, alveolar macrophages phagocytose the pathogen, prompting the recruitment of innate immune cells including neutrophils, NK cells, and interstitial macrophages.

Primary Tracheal Rosai‐Dorfman Disease Coexisting With Active Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
We report a rare case of primary tracheal Rosai‐Dorfman disease (RDD) with active pulmonary tuberculosis. Bronchoscopic resection immediately relieved > 90% airway obstruction, and anti‐tuberculosis therapy was given, resulting in no recurrence at one‐year follow‐up. ABSTRACT Rosai‐Dorfman disease (RDD) rarely involves the trachea, and active pulmonary

Mycoplasma bovis involved in pituitary abscess syndrome in a beef heifer concomitantly infected with haemoparasites

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, August 2026.
Abstract This case report describes pituitary abscess syndrome (PAS) in a 20‐month‐old Blonde d'Aquitaine heifer with cranial nerve deficits (V, VII, VIII, IX, X and XII) associated with facial hemiparesis, head tilt, ataxia and dysphagia, pneumonia and otitis interna.

Infection control in the brain and the eye

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page e478-e490, August 2026.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...

Computed tomography findings of peritoneal tumour in the absence of primary lesions: preliminary study

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 8, Page 532-537, August 2026.
Primary peritoneal tumours are uncommon and include mesothelioma and carcinoma. Mesothelioma identification is challenging, as there are no established rapid diagnostic methods. In the absence of a simple means of diagnosis, evaluation often requires several invasive biopsies, highlighting the need to develop a definitive diagnostic method.

Synthetic Ligands of Myeloid C‐Type Lectin Receptors

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Binding of ligands to C‐type lectin receptors (CLRs) on myeloid cells can lead to an array of cellular responses. Exploitation of these receptors for therapeutic purposes requires high‐affinity ligands. This review surveys the diversity of synthetic ligands of myeloid CLRs in the context of binding, signaling, and downstream effects, as well as ...
