Article Synopsis
  • Bai Ji is an important medicinal plant in traditional Chinese medicine, particularly known for its beneficial effects on Alzheimer's disease, although it has been facing a significant disease outbreak in Chongqing, China, affecting 56% of the plants.
  • Symptoms of the disease include necrotic lesions with brown edges and yellow halos, leading to leaf blight and eventual leaf drop.
  • Researchers collected infected leaves to identify the fungal agent, isolating it through a series of sterilization and culturing steps, ultimately observing distinct colony characteristics that suggest it is a single fungal species.

Article Synopsis
  • Confluent reticulated papillomatosis (CRP), terra-firme-forme-dermatitis (TFFD), and dermatitis neglecta (DN) are benign skin conditions that cause hyperpigmented lesions, making them difficult to distinguish and treat based on appearance alone.
  • A study of 62 patients revealed distinct dermoscopic patterns for each condition, with CRP showing a cerebriform pattern, while TFFD and DN presented patterns resembling a “mosaic” and “cornflake-like” appearance, respectively.
  • The findings suggest dermoscopy is an effective, noninvasive tool for diagnosing these similar-looking conditions, helping physicians identify them based on unique features like the color and formation of pigment globules.

Introduction: The most common cause of preventable death on the battlefield is significant blood loss, eventually causing decrease in tissue oxygen delivery. Pulse oximeters (POs) are widely used by the Israeli Defense Forces to obtain fast and noninvasive information about peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2). However, POs are produced by different manufacturers and therefore include different sensors and are based on distinctive algorithms.
