Honey bee colonies can be afflicted by serious conditions beyond infectious etiologies. Noninfectious conditions, such as starvation, laying worker colonies, and environmental dysregulation, can be as devastating as any disease. Improper hive monitoring and care often are the underlying causes of noninfectious conditions and each condition may be prevented by instituting best management practices.

The introduction of anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (anti-TNF-α) agents, particularly infliximab (IFX) and adalimumab (ADA), has significantly expanded the therapeutic arsenal for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). While these biologics have demonstrated substantial efficacy, they are associated with a spectrum of potential adverse events (AEs). This study aims to evaluate and document these AEs to facilitate optimal patient selection and monitoring strategies of patients undergoing these therapies.

Buffalo Immune Competence Under Infectious and Non-Infectious Stressors.

Animals (Basel)

Immune competence is a critical aspect of protecting animals from the negative consequences of disease. The activation of the immune response from inflammation is part of adaptive homeostasis that serves to eliminate danger, induce tissue repair, and restore tissue homeostasis. Therefore, the main goal for the organism is to control both the induction and suppression of inflammation and resist the onset of disease.

Background: Excessive prescription of antibiotics in infants increases the risk of short-term and lifelong morbidity and mortality. Nonetheless, the use of antibiotics in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) is significantly high. This is primarily because neonatologists are concerned about the fragile immune systems of newborns, their vulnerability to serious infectious diseases, and the challenge of accurately distinguishing between infectious and non-infectious conditions.
