The presence of in cattle is responsible for lesions similar to those observed in cases suspected of brucellosis, however, sp. is not a trade barrier, although it is also responsible for economic losses due to the removal of the affected parts of the carcasses. sp. is a zoonotic agent transmitted to humans through the consumption of contaminated animal products, the contact with infected animals and the handling of carcasses. This agent is also responsible for non-tariff trade barriers. Cervical bursitis is sp. suggestive lesions in bovine carcasses that requires laboratory tests to confirm the diagnosis. The objective of this study was to record the co-infection of and sp. as a first report of co-infection of these two agents in the same lesion. The sample constituted of a nuchal bursitis in the cervical ligament, a suggestive lesion common to these two agents, submitted to histopathology and spp. isolation in the Brucellosis reference laboratory of the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply. Brucellosis serological diagnosis were also performed in the animal's serum sample. was isolated from the lesion and filarid nematode structures were identified in histopathology. All serological tests were positive for brucellosis. Further studies are needed, however, to understand the co-infection by sp. and .

Background: Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is often accompanied by pain and restriction in range of movement, which long lasting symptoms often have negative impact on patients' work and lives. Since diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for developing AC, and AC with DM have more limitations of joint motion than general people.

Aims: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the difference of clinical efficacy between diabetes and non-diabetes, and to explore whether AC with diabetes need special intervention compared to non-diabetes.

Article Synopsis
  • - Erythema multiforme (EM) is a skin condition that can occur due to infections, medications, vaccines, or autoimmune diseases, with NSAIDs like ibuprofen having rare associations with it and resultant pancytopenia (low blood cell counts).
  • - A 75-year-old woman developed EM and pancytopenia after taking ibuprofen for shoulder bursitis, presenting with neck swelling, a target-shaped rash, and oral ulcers 15 days post-medication.
  • - After discontinuing ibuprofen and providing supportive care, including blood transfusions, the patient’s condition improved, and she was discharged six days later, highlighting the need for awareness of rare NSAID side effects among healthcare professionals.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates risk factors for frozen shoulder (FS) and creates a predictive model for its early diagnosis using data from 103 FS patients and 309 control subjects over two years.
  • Statistical tests, including logistic regression, revealed that low body mass index (BMI), diabetes, cervical spondylosis, and hyperlipidemia significantly increase the risk of developing FS.
  • The predictive model's effectiveness was evaluated with ROC curve analysis, showing that the model outperforms individual diagnostic indicators in identifying FS.

The reconstruction of past life based on archaeozoology is a challenging domain that offers a range of valuable details concerning former human and animal populations. Additionally, the ancient era is a source of information for human and veterinary medicine, as well as for other biological sciences. This report highlights a pathological lesion identified during the investigation of a horse skeleton from a pit dated La Tène in Alba County (Romania).
