Opioid use disorder is heritable, yet its genetic etiology is largely unknown. C57BL/6J and C57BL/6NJ mouse substrains exhibit phenotypic diversity in the context of limited genetic diversity which together can facilitate genetic discovery. Here, we found C57BL/6NJ mice were less sensitive to oxycodone (OXY)-induced locomotor activation versus C57BL/6J mice in a conditioned place preference paradigm.

Background: Infection with Adenovirus in children may clinically resemble a bacterial infection in several aspects, including high and prolonged fever, and increased inflammation markers. We aimed to estimate the rate of antibiotics administration among hospitalized infants with Adenovirus infection and to evaluate its justification.
Methods: Included were hospitalized patients aged 2 months - 2 years who found positive for Adenovirus in PCR tests (Ct <36).
