This paper describes the psychiatric consultation-liaison services provided to an Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. Clinical services are provided both by program consultation and by individual inpatient and outpatient referral. Clinical problems in obstetrics and gynecology that result in psychiatric referral are discussed. Research interests which play an important role in the program are described. Educational activities are directed toward ward and clinic staff, undergraduate medical students, residents and the practising specialist. The combination of well articulated consumer requests, interested gynecologists and obstetricians, broadened gynecology residency training objectives, and greater involvement of consultation-liaison psychiatrists suggests a promising future for psychosomatic obstetrics and gynecology.

Equid alphaherpesvirus 4 (EqAHV4; , ; equine rhinopneumonitis virus) has seldom been associated with complications such as abortion and myeloencephalopathy, given the low tendency of this virus to induce viremia. We investigated the frequency of EqAHV4 viremia in horses with fever and respiratory signs. Case selection included all equids with EqAHV4 quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR)-positive nasal secretions (defined as EqAHV4 qPCR-positive cases) submitted to a diagnostic laboratory.

Background: Immune cells within tumor tissues play important roles in remodeling the tumor microenvironment, thus affecting tumor progression and the therapeutic response. The current study was designed to identify key markers of plasma cells and explore their role in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC).
Methods: We utilized single-cell sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to identify key immune cell types within HGSOC tissues and to extract related markers via the Seurat package.
