AI Article Synopsis
- The patient experienced a rare condition where schistosomal eggs were found on the outer layer of the small intestine, but there were no issues in the inner lining of either the small or large intestine.
- The diagnosis was unexpected and occurred during a planned cesarean section.
- During the surgery, small nodules on the surface of the small bowel were observed, leading to the discovery of this condition.
Article Abstract
This patient shows a rare phenomenon of schistosomal ova deposition on the serosal side of the small bowel without any pathology seen on the mucosal side of the small and large bowels. The patient was diagnosed accidentally during an elective cesarean section, when small nodules were seen on the small bowel surface.

The effects of xylazine on locomotion and motor behaviour in a planarian model.
Behav Pharmacol
January 2025
Department of Psychology, Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, Massachusetts, USA.
In recent years, the recreational use of xylazine has increased dramatically in the USA. Although xylazine has been used as an anesthetic in veterinary medicine for decades, little is known about its behavioral effects. We took advantage of the planarian's innate negative phototaxis, the reliable movement from the light side to the dark side of a Petri dish, to explore the organism's suitability as an animal model for investigating the preclinical pharmacology of xylazine.

This case report highlights a potential vaccine safety concern associated with the Pseudorabies virus (PRV) live vaccine, which warrants further investigation for comprehensive understanding. Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT), a novel syndrome of adverse events following adenovirus vector COVID-19 vaccines, was observed after vaccination with Zoetis PR-VAC PLUS. This led to a 100% morbidity and high mortality among PRV-free Danish purebred pigs from Danish Genetics Co.

Department of Orthopaedics, Isala Hospital, Zwolle, The Netherlands.
Background: Current knowledge on the microvascular anatomy of adult human menisci is based on cadaveric studies. However, considerable interindividual variation in meniscal microvascularization has been reported in recent studies with small sample sizes.
Purpose: To assess the association between patient characteristics and the depth of microvascularization of the meniscus.

Intramedullary spinal cord metastasis (ISCM) is a rare manifestation of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A 73-year-old man presented with left shoulder pain and left upper extremity weakness for two months. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed intramedullary and intradural extramedullary lesions at the C5 level, compressing the spinal cord from the center of the cord and the left ventral side.
