Spatio-temporal plasticity of gill microbiota in estuarine fish.

Coastal marine and estuarine systems are subject to enormous endogenous and exogenous pressures, particularly climate change, while at the same time being highly productive sources and nurseries for fish populations. Interactions between host and microbiome are increasingly recognized for their importance for fish health, with growing evidence indicating that increasing environmental pressures impact host resilience and favor the raise of opportunistic bacterial taxa. The microbial composition of the gill mucus reflects environmental conditions and represents an entry route for pathogens into the fish body.

Network-based integration of omics, physiological and environmental data in real-world Elbe estuarine Zander.

Coastal and estuarine environments are under endogenic and exogenic pressures jeopardizing survival and diversity of inhabiting biota. Information of possible synergistic effects of multiple (a)biotic stressors and holobiont interaction are largely missing in estuaries like the Elbe but are of importance to estimate unforeseen effects on animals' physiology. Here, we seek to leverage host-transcriptional RNA-seq and gill mucus microbial 16S rRNA metabarcoding data coupled with physiological and abiotic measurements in a network analysis approach to decipher the impact of multiple stressors on the health of juvenile Sander lucioperca along one of the largest European estuaries.

Chronic Radiation Dermatitis Secondary to Narrow-Band Ultraviolet B Therapy in a Patient With Primary Cutaneous CD8 + T-Cell Lymphoma With Cytotoxic Granules.

Conventional therapies for CD8 + cutaneous T-cell lymphoma include topical steroids, topical nitrogen mustard, topical bexarotene, ultraviolet B therapy, psoralen and ultraviolet A therapy, local radiotherapy, and interferon alfa; however, these treatments are often found to be ineffective. Presented is a case of CD8 + cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with near-complete response to narrow-band ultraviolet therapy because of chronic radiation dermatitis initially believed to be possible progression of a CD8 + cutaneous epidermotropic cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma.

BerEP4-Negative Basal Cell Carcinoma: An Immunophenotype Not to Forget.

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cancer worldwide. Although not typically metastatic, BCC can be locally destructive. BerEP4 is an antibody against CD326, an epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) that is expressed on epithelial progenitor cells and carcinomas.

Treatment of Refractory Cardiac Arrest by Controlled Reperfusion of the Whole Body: A Multicenter, Prospective Observational Study.

Survival following cardiac arrest (CA) remains poor after conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CCPR) (6-26%), and the outcomes after extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) are often inconsistent. Poor survival is a consequence of CA, low-flow states during CCPR, multi-organ injury, insufficient monitoring, and delayed treatment of the causative condition. We developed a new strategy to address these issues.
