Endophytes are microbes living within plant tissue, with some having the capacity to fix atmospheric nitrogen in both a free-living state and within their plant host. They are part of a diverse microbial community whose interactions sometimes result in a more productive symbiosis with the host plant. Here, we report the co-isolation of diazotrophic endophytes with synergistic partners sourced from two separate nutrient-limited sites.

- Bone loss, especially prevalent in post-menopausal women and astronauts, involves a decline in bone density and architecture, and is linked to various factors including radiation exposure and cancer treatment.
- Researchers utilized the adverse outcome pathway (AOP) framework to map the process from the initial energy exposure to the resulting bone loss, involving collaborative input from experts in bone health.
- A thorough review of 2029 studies led to an empirically supported AOP that details how changes in osteoblast and osteoclast activity contribute to bone loss, highlighting research gaps and priorities to improve risk assessments for radiation exposure.
Objective: Minor salivary gland carcinomas are challenging to study due to their rarity and heterogeneity. We aim to further characterize clinical characteristics, treatment, and outcomes over 20 years within a single institution.
Study Design: Retrospective chart review was conducted on 210 patients who received primary treatment for minor salivary gland malignancy from 2000 to 2022.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to categorize patterns of traumatic brain injury (poly-TBI) and examine how these categories relate to patient outcomes like mortality and withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment (WLST).
- A single-center retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with moderate to severe TBI, identifying three distinct classes based on TBI subtypes and CT scores: Class 1 (mixed), Class 2 (SDH/SAH), and Class 3 (EDH/SAH).
- Results showed that Class 1 (mixed) had the lowest mortality and WLST rates, while Class 2 (SDH/SAH) faced the highest risk of death, indicating that TBI subtype classifications can significantly impact clinical outcomes. *
Background: Facial paralysis is a life-altering condition that may arise from various etiologies, ranging from trauma to malignancy. Permanent facial paralysis may occur secondary to facial nerve sacrifice or irreversible damage to the nerve. In these particularly devastating cases, protection and maintaining function of the eye is paramount.
