The authors describe fundus autofluorescence (AF) and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) findings in three patients with enhanced S-cone syndrome and their correlation around the hyperautofluorescent ring border. Patients had AF imaging in combination with SD-OCT line-scans through the fovea, at the posterior pole, and at a temporal locus centered on the ring border. All eyes demonstrated a macular ring of high-intensity AF. The inner segment ellipsoid band showed thinning and disorganization toward the ring border, where it was lost.

Background: We explored the clinical characteristics, treatment, and outcomes of colitis-associated colorectal cancer and compared with sporadic colorectal cancer in Taiwan.

Methods: In this retrospective study spanning 1987-2022, colitis-associated colorectal cancers diagnosed according to endoscopic and pathological reports from 14 tertiary centers were reported to our cohort. Clinical demographics, endoscopic findings, histological results, treatment modalities, and outcomes were analyzed.

Diffusion and migration play pivotal roles in microbial communities - shaping, for example, colonization in new environments and the maintenance of spatial structures of biodiversity. While previous research has extensively studied free diffusion, such as range expansion, there remains a gap in understanding the effects of biologically or physically deleterious confined environments. In this study, we examine the interplay between migration and spatial drug heterogeneity within an experimental meta-community of .

Early gastric composite tumor comprising signet-ring cell carcinoma and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma: A case report.

World J Gastroenterol

October 2024

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University of Oxford Huaxi Joint Centre for Gastrointestinal Cancer, Frontiers Science Center for Disease-Related Molecular Network, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, Sichuan Province, China.

Background: Composite tumors are neoplasms comprising two distinct, yet intermingling, cell populations. This paper reports a rare phenomenon where early gastric signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma coexist within the same lesion.

Case Summary: A 40-year-old woman presented to the West China Hospital for examination, which revealed a whitish, shallow, and uneven mucosal lesion in the stomach.

Uncovering lipid dynamics in Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis using multimodal imaging mass spectrometry.

Cell Chem Biol

October 2024

Mass Spectrometry Research Center, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, USA; Department of Chemistry, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, USA; Department of Biochemistry, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, USA; Department of Medicine, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, USA; Department of Pharmacology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN 37235, USA.

Osteomyelitis occurs when Staphylococcus aureus invades the bone microenvironment, resulting in a bone marrow abscess with a spatially defined architecture of cells and biomolecules. Imaging mass spectrometry and microscopy are tools that can be employed to interrogate the lipidome of S. aureus-infected murine femurs and reveal metabolic and signaling consequences of infection.
