is a ubiquitous environmental fungus, and several osteomyelitis cases have been reported in recent years. We present the case of a woman in her 70s who sustained a comminuted open ankle fracture, with garden soil contamination of the wound, which was treated according to orthoplastic principles. The patient developed osteomyelitis 6 months postsurgery.

- The rising global impact of substance use, including various drugs, is a significant concern, particularly in Australia and New Zealand, where these substances are among the top causes of disease burden.
- The Monitoring Illicit Substance Use (MISUse) Consortium was created to study these substances more effectively by combining data from four established cohort studies across the two countries, which will allow for larger and more comprehensive research.
- The goal of the MISUse Consortium is to better understand the patterns and long-term effects of illicit substance use, with an emphasis on finding modifiable factors that can inform public health policies and interventions.
Objective: To compare the prevalence and clinical characteristics of early gestational diabetes (eGDM) and associated birth outcomes amongst women of different ethnic groups.
Research Design And Methods: This is a secondary analysis of an international, multicentre randomized controlled trial of treating eGDM among pregnant women with GDM risk factors enrolled <20 weeks' gestation. The diagnosis of GDM was made using WHO-2013 criteria.
Objective: To investigate the association of timing of commencing glucose management with glycemia, glycemic variability, and pregnancy outcomes among women with early gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
Research Design And Methods: In this substudy among participants of a trial of immediate vs delayed treatment of early GDM diagnosed by 2013 World Health Organization criteria, all women treated immediately and those with delayed diagnosis at 24-28 weeks' gestation (treated as if late GDM) were instructed to monitor capillary blood glucose (BG) four times a day (fasting and 2-h postprandial) until delivery. Optimal glycemia was defined as ≥95% of BG measurements between 70 and 140 mg/dL (3.
Article Synopsis
- - The study examines how florigen and antiflorigen genes within the PEBP family influence flowering in angiosperms, especially in eelgrass, which is vital for its survival against climate change.
- - Researchers identified thirteen PEBP genes in eelgrass and found that four of them affect flowering when overexpressed; they analyzed gene expression using RT-PCR across different eelgrass populations and growth stages.
- - Results indicate that certain genes promote flowering while others inhibit it, with some genes expressed variably in different parts of the plant, suggesting a complex role in flowering and shoot architecture in eelgrass.
