Prevalence, risk factors and zoonotic potential of intestinal parasites in dogs from four locations in Morocco.

Dogs can harbor various intestinal parasites that have serious clinical, economic, and zoonotic impact. In Morocco, the epidemiological status of those parasites is largely unknown. This study aimed to obtain data on the prevalence of intestinal parasites in various Moroccan dog populations, to identify associated risk factors, to evaluate people's knowledge regarding zoonotic parasites and to estimate the risk of human infection.

Primary cutaneous peripheral T-cell lymphomas with a T-follicular helper phenotype: an integrative clinical, pathological and molecular case series study.

Background: Primary cutaneous peripheral T-cell lymphomas with a T-follicular helper phenotype (pcTFH-PTCL) are poorly characterized, and often compared to, but not corresponding with, mycosis fungoides (MF), Sézary syndrome, primary cutaneous CD4 lymphoproliferative disorder, and skin manifestations of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphomas (AITL).

Objectives: We describe the clinicopathological features of pcTFH-PTCL in this original series of 23 patients, and also characterize these cases molecularly.

Methods: Clinical and histopathological data of the selected patients were reviewed.

Cannabis smoke condensate induces human gingival epithelial cell damage through apoptosis, autophagy, and oxidative stress.

Objectives: This study aims to investigate the effects of cannabis smoke condensate (CSC) on the adhesion, growth, and signaling pathways of human gingival epithelial cells.

Design: The effects of CSC on cell shape and adhesion, and viability were evaluated after 30 min, 60 min, 2 h, and 24 h of exposure using microscopic observation, cell metabolic activity, and lactate dehydrogenase activity assays. The effects of CSC on cell apoptosis, necrosis, autophagy, and oxidative stress were determined through flow cytometry, while apoptotic and autophagic gene expression were identified via an RT-PCR array.

A systematic review of neural, cognitive, and clinical studies of anger and aggression.

Anger and aggression have large impact on people's safety and the society at large. In order to provide an intervention to minimise aggressive behaviours, it is important to understand the neural and cognitive aspects of anger and aggression. In this systematic review, we investigate the cognitive and neural aspects of anger-related processes, including anger-related behaviours and anger reduction.
