To prepare a large amount of pure alive Schistosoma japonicum eggs, rabbit was infected with 2000 cercariae and its liver was taken aseptically 38-45 days after infection and homogenized. The homogenate was screened through different sieves(60, 120, 200, 300, 360 meshes per inch respectively), and washed with 1.2% NaCl. The eggs and leftover were then digested with 0.25% trypsin for 2 hours, sieved over 360 meshes per inch and washed with RPMI 1640 medium. The collected eggs reached to (95.1 +/- 6.4)% of live eggs, with a high efficiency.

Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates the link between autism spectrum disorder and gastrointestinal issues using rodent models, focusing on how increased gut permeability might relate to neurotoxic effects from propionic acid (PPA).
- - Forty young male western Albino rats were divided into six groups to test the effects of PPA and different probiotic treatments, measuring factors like intestinal permeability markers (zonulin and occludin) and oxidative stress indicators.
- - Results indicated that probiotics could improve gut barrier function, lower markers of intestinal permeability, enhance GABA receptor expression, and reduce oxidative stress associated with PPA, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for addressing gut-related issues in autistic individuals.

Article Synopsis
- Intravenous lipids are important for very premature babies to get the nutrition they need safely.
- The study compared two kinds of intravenous fats: one made with fish oil (CO-ILE) and another made with only soybean oil (SOLE), to see which was better for babies needing long-term nutrition.
- Results showed that CO-ILE had a lower chance of causing liver problems and less yellowing of the skin compared to SOLE, suggesting CO-ILE might be a safer choice for these babies.

Background: Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) have been shown in randomised controlled trials and epidemiological studies to prevent acute otitis media caused by vaccine serotype pneumococci, although their role in preventing complications of acute otitis media is less clear. We hypothesised that the 11-valent PCV would reduce the long-term sequelae of acute otitis media, including moderate-to-severe ear disease and hearing loss.
Methods: This prospective cohort study, referred to as 11PCV study, included follow-up after 16-20 years of children previously enrolled in 2000-04, at age 6 weeks to 6 months, in the randomised, placebo-controlled, ARIVAC trial of 11-valent PCV for the prevention of radiographical pneumonia.
