Published: August 2013

This case report concerns a newborn with bilateral adrenal massive hemorrhage complicated by inferior cava vein thrombosis, hypertension and encephalopathy to elaborate diagnostic and therapeutic problem of neonatal thromboembolic events. Increasing of risk population (extreme prematurity), improvement of imaging, laboratory and neonatologist care enhanced in recent years the diagnosis of this group of diseases. Even if literature about this subject is poor, we remark the significant effort of neonatologist to revise and update neonatal guidelines and the relevance of the institution of the National Registry of Neonatal Thrombosis (RITI).

Fungi are well known for their ability to both produce and catabolize complex carbohydrates to acquire carbon, often in the most extreme of environments. Glucuronoxylomannan (GXM)-based gel matrices are widely produced by fungi in nature and though they are of key interest in medicine and pharmaceuticals, their biodegradation is poorly understood. Though some organisms, including other fungi, are adapted to life in and on GXM-like matrices in nature, they are almost entirely unstudied, and it is unknown if they are involved in matrix degradation.

Cardiac tamponade is a rare but fatal complication of catheter ablation. We are reporting a case of a 73-year-old male with ventricular tachycardia (VT) storm undergoing urgent VT ablation, who was later found to have right ventricle (RV) perforation-an unusual site for catheter ablation complication. The patient underwent isochronal late activation mapping (ILAM)-based ablation and elimination of local abnormal ventricular activities (LAVA).

Pathogenesis-Associated Bacterial Amyloids: The Network of Interactions.

Biochemistry (Mosc)

December 2024

Faculty of Biology, St. Petersburg State University, St. Petersburg, 199034, Russia. ARRAY(0x5ae2b7af6df8).

Amyloids are protein fibrils with a characteristic cross-β structure that is responsible for the unusual resistance of amyloids to various physical and chemical factors, as well as numerous pathogenic and functional consequences of amyloidogenesis. The greatest diversity of functional amyloids was identified in bacteria. The majority of bacterial amyloids are involved in virulence and pathogenesis either via facilitating formation of biofilms and adaptation of bacteria to colonization of a host organism or through direct regulation of toxicity.
