Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to analyze the immune characteristics and viral makeup of young adults in Argentina who acquired HIV at birth (p-YA), comparing them to young adults with HIV acquired through other means.
  • Researchers conducted a detailed examination of immune cell types and their functions using techniques like flow cytometry and ELISA, involving 18 p-YA and various control groups.
  • Key findings revealed that p-YA had a unique immune profile with more naïve CD4 T-cells and lower signs of exhaustion, suggesting they face different challenges in managing the HIV virus compared to those who acquired it later in life.

Background: Chondrodysplasia punctata 1 (CDPX1) is an X-linked recessive disorder of cartilage and bone development characterized by stippling on the cartilage and bone, flattened nasal bridge, and brachydactyly, or short fingers. CDPX1 has been associated with variants in the ARSL gene and is known to manifest prenatally, however, there has been no systematic literature review on this evidence.

Aims: Here, we reviewed the current literature on prenatal manifestations of CDPX1, and additionally introduce previously unpublished cases.

Determining the risk of pathologic fracture in dogs with a primary bone tumor would aid in case selection for in-situ treatment options. Prior research found strong relationships between in vitro strength of canine antebrachii with primary bone tumors and CT-derived metrics. This study assesses the prognosis for pathologic fracture in dogs with distal radial bone tumors using CT-derived structural analysis metrics.

Background: Condylar fractures are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Thoroughbred racehorses. Condylar fractures have a variety of fracture configurations that suggest there may be differences in aetiopathogenesis.

Objective: To determine if exercise history differs with condylar fracture location in a population of Thoroughbred racehorses.
