Background: SL-172154 is a hexameric fusion protein adjoining the extracellular domain of SIRPα to the extracellular domain of CD40L via an inert IgG-derived Fc domain. In preclinical studies, a murine equivalent SIRPα-Fc-CD40L fusion protein provided superior antitumor immunity in comparison to CD47- and CD40-targeted antibodies. A first-in-human phase I trial of SL-172154 was conducted in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

Background: Child maltreatment is a continuous and prevalent issue, and victims of maltreatment often suffer adverse effects well into adulthood. Since child maltreatment rates tend to be clustered geographically and temporally, intervention programs are best implemented at a local level, targeting local risk factors for sustained and effective reduction over time.
Objective: Quantifying geographic variation in child maltreatment rate trajectories can help states identify local risk factors to guide program development and resource allocation.

Introduction: Traumatic obturator-type anterior dislocation of the hip with an ipsilateral subtrochanteric fracture is rarely encountered in clinical practice. This case presentation described a trauma patient with such a rare scenario.
Case Report: This paper reports a case of a 20-year-old Amhara ethnic male patient who had a traumatic anterior dislocation of the hip associated with an ipsilateral subtrochanteric femur fracture after a truck rolled over.

Unlabelled: Upon entry into the upper respiratory tract (URT), (Spn) upregulates neuraminidases (NA) that cleave sialic acid (SA) from host glycans. Because sialylation is thought to contribute to the physical properties that determine mucus function, we posited that Spn directly alters host mucus through NA activity. By directly imaging the colonized URT, we demonstrated NA-mediated alterations to the characteristics and distribution of mucus along the respiratory epithelium, where colonizing bacteria are found.

Venous blood is considered an acceptable alternative to arterial blood for assessment of metabolic acid-base disorders. Also, venous sampling using lithium-heparin (Li-Hep) tubes is advantageous to arterial sampling using PICO syringes, the risk of complications being lower. Usage of partly filled tubes without firm knowledge about the clinical consequences is, however, a pre-analytic consideration.
