Article Synopsis
- Lymphatic imaging plays a crucial role in managing congenital heart disease, but the effects of the contrast agent ferumoxytol on these imaging methods are not fully understood.
- This study assessed how ferumoxytol affects T1-weighted and T2-weighted imaging by analyzing 119 patients, noting a significant reduction in thoracic duct visibility for sedated patients compared to non-sedated ones.
- The findings suggest that while T1-weighted imaging can show thoracic duct enhancement, T2-weighted imaging fails to visualize it if done after contrast administration, highlighting important timing considerations in imaging procedures.
Unlabelled: The strain diversity of a rubulavirus, parainfluenza virus 5 (PIV5), was investigated by comparing 11 newly determined and 6 previously published genome sequences. These sequences represent 15 PIV5 strains, of which 6 were isolated from humans, 1 was from monkeys, 2 were from pigs, and 6 were from dogs. Strain diversity is remarkably low, regardless of host, year of isolation, or geographical origin; a total of 7.

Recently, it has been found that there is an exception to this dogma in that a porcine isolate of the paramyxovirus parainfluenza virus 5 (PIV5), known as SER, requires a low-pH step for fusion (S.
