Esophageal carcinoma cuniculatum is a rare histology and can be difficult to diagnose prior to resection. To date, there have been 28 cases of resected esophageal carcinoma cuniculatum reported. Herein we describe a case found in the stomach of a patient who previously underwent a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery.

Methods: We conducted a phase 1b-2 study of talquetamab plus teclistamab in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. In phase 1, we investigated five dose levels in a dose-escalation study.
Objective: To describe immune responses following administration of experimental Salmonella Dublin siderophore receptor protein (SRP) vaccines in Holstein heifer calves with adequate passive antibody transfer.
Methods: Calves were randomly assigned to receive placebo, vaccination with S Dublin SRP in adjuvant A, or vaccination with S Dublin SRP in adjuvant B at 7 ± 3 days of age and 3 weeks later. Before each vaccination, 4 and 8 days after the second vaccination (postvaccination), and 61 to 91 days postvaccination, S Dublin antibody titers were measured.
Objective: Many hyperthyroid cats (15% to 50%) have concurrent chronic kidney disease (CKD) that is "masked" and will not become azotemic until after treatment. Previous studies reported that mild-to-moderate azotemic CKD after methimazole or thyroidectomy does not adversely affect survival. Our objective was to determine whether hyperthyroid cats with masked CKD rendered euthyroid with radioiodine (131I) have shorter survival than 131I-treated euthyroid cats that remain nonazotemic.

- The text discusses the impact of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs), specifically PCV10 and PCV13, on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) globally, highlighting how these vaccines have reduced the prevalence of disease caused by vaccine-type serotypes after extensive use.
- It describes the methodology of data collection from various surveillance sites, which aimed to evaluate IPD cases that occurred five years after the vaccines were implemented, focusing on different age groups for analysis.
- Findings indicate significant differences in serotype distribution between PCV10 and PCV13 sites; notably, certain serotypes, such as 19A and serotype 3, were prevalent in specific age groups, signaling ongoing challenges in controlling
