Rapid lymphatic malformation expansion: Imaging, association with asymptomatic infection, multidisciplinary management, and therapeutic approach.

Lymphatic malformations are congenital anomalies of the lymphatic system that can occur anywhere in the body and typically present in early childhood. They are often painless, slow-growing, and asymptomatic, but may lead to a wide range of symptoms depending on their size and location. Rarely, congenital malformations may not be diagnosed until later in childhood or adolescence, despite being present from birth.

Phase II pilot study of the prednisone to dexamethasone switch in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients with limited progression on abiraterone plus prednisone (SWITCH study).

Background: Despite most metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients benefit from abiraterone acetate plus prednisone 5 mg bid (AA + P), resistance eventually occurs. Long-term use of prednisone has been suggested as one of the mechanisms driving resistance, which may be reversed by switching to another steroid.

Methods: SWITCH was a single-arm, open-label, single-stage phase II study.

Increased survival of juvenile turbot Scophthalmus maximus by using bacteria associated with cultured oysters.

Preventing vibriosis in juvenile cultured Turbot Scophthalmus maximus caused by Vibrio anguillarum frequently requires the use of feed supplemented with antibiotics in addition to vaccines. Whether the use of probiotics instead of antibiotics in juvenile Turbot is a safer strategy requires more study. The antibacterial potential of 148 Vibrio spp.
