When is it a sexually transmitted infection? Intimate contact transmission of pathogens not traditionally defined as STIs.
Curr Opin Infect Dis
February 2025
Infectious Diseases Unit, Vita-Salute San Raffaele University.
Purpose Of Review: Several microorganisms, which are not traditionally considered sexually transmitted infections (STIs), are capable of sexual transmission and have the potential to cause global outbreaks. The aim of this review is to describe pathogens which are not traditionally defined as STIs, to grant insight on current and potential outbreaks and call for clinical vigilance among members of key populations.
Recent Findings: Recent findings emphasize that several pathogens, not traditionally classified as STIs, can be sexually transmissible.
Cervical spine infection arising from chronic paronychia: A case report and review of literature.

Department of Orthopedics and Spine Surgery, Guangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated International Zhuang Hospital, Nanning 530201, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China.
Background: Cervical spine pyogenic infection (CSPI) is a rare and challenging form of spinal infection that is typically caused by pyogenic bacteria and primarily affects the cervical vertebral bodies and surrounding tissues. Given its nonspecific symptoms, such as fever and neck pain, early diagnosis is crucial to prevent severe complications, including spinal cord injury. We report a previously unreported case of acute CSPI arising from chronic paronychia, exploring its diagnostic and therapeutic challenges through a review of the current literature.

Pancreatogenic diabetes also known as type 3c diabetes mellitus (DM) is a distinct entity often overlooked and misdiagnosed as type 2 diabetes. It results from exocrine pancreatic dysfunction involving both insulin and glucagon deficiencies due to damage to pancreatic beta and alpha cells. This case highlights a 46-year-old male presenting with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a rare but severe complication of type 3c DM.

Obstetrics and Gynecology, Kitasato University School of Medicine, Sagamihara, JPN.
Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a urinary tract infection progression characterized by gas retention in the renal tissues and a high mortality rate, but few cases have been reported. In this study, we present a 32-year-old primigravida with type 2 diabetes mellitus and a history of pyelonephritis who developed pyelonephritis at 29 weeks. Antimicrobial therapy was initiated; however, her clinical symptoms worsened.

Front Nutr
December 2024
Department of Epidemiology, Hunan Normal University School of Medicine, Changsha, China.
Background And Aims: Salt substitute is considered an effective strategy to reduce sodium and increase potassium intake and thereby lower blood pressure in China, but its benefits and risks are uncertain in real-world data. This study is designed to compare the difference in the 1-year efficacy of salt substitute and salt restriction on urinary electrolytes and blood pressure.
Methods And Results: A total of 2,929 and 2,071 participants with the 24-h estimated urinary sodium excretion (eUNaE) above 2.
