Primary pulmonary lymphoma in Peru.

Objective: To describe the clinical features, imaging, pathology and management of patients with primary pulmonary lymphoma (PPL).

Methodology: This is a case series study involving a retrospective analysis of 24 patients diagnosed with PPL between the years 2000-2019 at Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas in Lima, Perú.

Results: 73.

Comparative analysis of genomes reveals the absence of a specific genetic basis for biocontrol in strain 212.

strain 212 (PO212) is a filamentous fungus belonging to the division Ascomycete. PO212 acts as an effective biocontrol agent against several pathogens in a variety of horticultural crops including f.sp.

A Secondary Metabolism Pathway Involved in the Production of a Putative Toxin Is Expressed at Early Stage of Infection.

The necrotrophic pathogenic fungus causes brown rot disease on stone fruit generating significant yield losses. So far, a limited number of pathogenesis-related virulence factors, such as cell wall degrading enzymes and potential phytotoxins, have been described in spp. Using RNA-sequencing data from highly virulent ML8L strain at early stages of the infection process (6, 14, 24, and 48 h post-inoculation, hpi) on nectarine and the Pathogen-Host-Interactions (PHI) database, we selected a number of genes for further study and ranked them according to their transcription levels.

Adjuvant Effect of Titanium Brushes in Peri-Implant Surgical Treatment: A Systematic Review.

Background: the prognosis of peri-implant surgery can be affected by poor decontamination of the implant surface, which could be improved with the use of titanium brushes. The objectives of this systematic review were to evaluate the effectiveness of titanium brushes in the decontamination of the implant surface in terms of plaque index, probing depth, bleeding on probing and bone loss/gain; as well as its effectiveness according to the type of peri-implant bone defect.

Methods: an electronic search was carried out in the PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane and Embase databases, as well as a manual search.

Defining the transcriptional responses of to cation/alkaline pH stress and the role of the transcription factor SltA.

Fungi have developed the ability to overcome extreme growth conditions and thrive in hostile environments. The model fungus tolerates, for example, ambient alkalinity up to pH 10 or molar concentrations of multiple cations. The ability to grow under alkaline pH or saline stress depends on the effective function of at least three regulatory pathways mediated by the zinc-finger transcription factor PacC, which mediates the ambient pH regulatory pathway, the calcineurin-dependent CrzA and the cation homeostasis responsive factor SltA.
