Butyricimonas faecihominis: an atypically resistant bacterium implicated in abscess formation - a case report.

Background: This case report presents a unique instance of abscesses with an uncommon pathogen isolated from blood cultures.

Case Presentation: We present the case of a perianal abscess in a 50-year-old man with a history of cocaine abuse and bilateral hip replacements. The rapid progression led to septic shock and multi-organ failure, requiring intensive care unit admission, surgery including protective transversostomy.

First-line high-dose therapy and autologous blood stem cell transplantation in patients with primary central nervous system non-Hodgkin lymphomas-a single-centre experience in 61 patients.

Primary central nervous system non-Hodgkin lymphomas (PCNS-NHLs) are extranodal B-cell lymphomas with poor prognosis. The role of high-dose therapy (HDT) followed by autologous blood stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as first-line therapy is still not clear. We retrospectively collected long-term follow up data of 61 consecutive patients with PCNS-NHL at the University Hospital Düsseldorf from January 2004 to December 2016.

A nationwide mobility service guarantee for Austria: possible design scenarios and implications.

Background: We present a sketch for a nationwide "Mobility Service Guarantee" (MSG) for Austria. The approach follows a new paradigm, turning away from car-centric transport policy and planning and towards the extensive provision of public transport. The approach is complemented by the provision of demand-responsive transport services and the support of vehicle sharing as well as active mobility.

AA-amyloidosis in captive northern tree shrews ().

A high prevalence of AA-amyloidosis was identified in a breeding colony of northern tree shrews () in a retrospective analysis, with amyloid deposits in different organs being found in 26/36 individuals (72%). Amyloid deposits, confirmed by Congo red staining, were detected in kidneys, intestines, skin, and lymph nodes, characteristic of systemic amyloidosis. Immunohistochemically, the deposited amyloid was intensely positive with anti-AA-antibody (clone mc4), suggesting AA-amyloidosis.
