Background And Purpose: Esophageal and gastric varices hemorrhage (EGVH) is a life-threatening condition with the 6-week mortality rate of 15-25%. Up to 60% of patients with EGVH may experience rebleeding with a mortality rate of 33%. The existing scoring systems, such as RS scoring system (Rockall score, RS) and GBS scoring system (Glasgow-Blatchford score, GBS), have limitations in predicting the risk of rebleeding.

Previous research has established that the formation of Gardnerella vaginalis (GV) biofilm is one of the primary reasons for bacterial vaginosis (BV) recurrence. This study was the first to explore the impact of Streptococcus agalactiae (group B Streptococcus, GBS) on GV biofilm in a co-culture scenario. The results revealed that GBS could significantly increased the GV biomass in 48-hours dual-species biofilms.

Introduction: The Rockall score and Glasgow-Blatchford score (GBS) are two scoring systems validated in the evaluation of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB). However, no meta-analysis exists to summarize the current data and clarify the use of Rockall score and GBS focusing on non-variceal UGIB. We aimed to evaluate and compare the utility of the Rockall score and GBS in predicting clinical outcomes in non-variceal UGIB.

Combined central and peripheral demyelination (CCPD) is a rare disease entity. Onset with the simultaneous central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) involvement and its recurrence are exceptional. Anti-neurofascin antibodies have been shown to be present in up to 70% of cases, yet seronegative patients also exist.

Biologists currently have an assortment of high-throughput sequencing techniques allowing the study of population dynamics in increasing detail. The utility of genetic estimates depends on their ability to recover meaningful approximations while filtering out noise produced by artifacts. In this study, we empirically compared the congruence of two reduced representation approaches (genotyping-by-sequencing, GBS, and whole-exome sequencing, WES) in estimating genetic diversity and population structure using SNP markers typed in a small number of wild jaguar (Panthera onca) samples from South America.
