Understanding the Impact of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids on Age-Related Macular Degeneration: A Review.

Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a multifactorial ocular pathology that destroys the photoreceptors of the macula. Two forms are distinguished, dry and wet AMD, with different pathophysiological mechanisms. Although treatments were shown to be effective in wet AMD, they remain a heavy burden for patients and caregivers, resulting in a lack of patient compliance.

Fatal-mixed cutaneous zygomycosis-aspergillosis: a case report.

Mucorales and Aspergillus are molds responsible for infections in immunocompromised patients. In this report, we describe a case of a rare extensively mixed cutaneous infection caused by Lichtheimia ramosa, Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus terreus in a neutropenic patient suffering from an acute leukemia. The fatal outcome of this patient can be attributed to its hematologic malignancy, the extensive nature of the lesions and the resistance of the strains to antifungals.

Tracheal involvement in ulcerative colitis: clinical presentation and potential interest of 2-deoxy-2[¹⁸F]fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography (¹⁸F-FDG PET) for the management.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease that can on rare occasions affect the respiratory tract. We report the case of a 32-year-old woman suffering from UC, for whom 2-deoxy-2[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography ((18)F-FDG PET) was useful, both for diagnosis and management of tracheal involvement. She presented with severe cough and fever, and bronchoscopy revealed inflammation of the trachea.
