Comprehensive Analysis of the Spectrum of Osteoarticular Infections in Children.
J Pediatric Infect Dis Soc
January 2025
Department of Pediatrics, University of Connecticut School of Medicine, Farmington, CT, USA.
Background: Studies of pediatric osteoarticular infections (OAIs) mostly focus on acute hematogenous osteomyelitis (AHO) and acute bacterial arthritis (ABA). A comprehensive descriptive analysis of pediatric OAIs, including subacute, chronic, and non-hematogenous types, is lacking.
Methods: A detailed analysis of all pediatric OAIs was undertaken at two academic centers, Hasbro Children's Hospital, Providence, RI, and Nationwide Children's Hospital, Columbus, OH.
Coexistence of immunoglobulin G4-related kidney disease and acute hematogenous disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis: a case report.
Front Immunol
January 2025
Department of Nephrology, Ningbo No.2 Hospital, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China.
Background: Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated fibrous inflammatory disease. Recently, an association between IgG4-RD and tuberculosis (TB) has been reported.
Case Summary: We report a 56-year-old man complaining of a cough and poor appetite for 2 months and oliguria for 1 day.
Joint fluid multi-omics improves diagnostic confidence during evaluation of children with presumed septic arthritis.
Pediatr Rheumatol Online J
January 2025
Department of Immunology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, TX, USA.
Background: An accurate diagnosis of septic versus reactive or autoimmune arthritis remains clinically challenging. A multi-omics strategy comprising metagenomic and proteomic technologies were undertaken for children diagnosed with presumed septic arthritis to advance clinical diagnoses and care for affected individuals.
Methods: Twelve children with suspected septic arthritis were prospectively enrolled to compare standard of care tests with a rapid multi-omics approach.
Survivorship of Periprosthetic Joint Infection in Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty: A Single Healthcare System's 23-Year Experience.
J Am Acad Orthop Surg
January 2025
From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA (Lim, Prasad, Salimy, Melnic, and Bedair), and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Newton-Wellesley Hospital, Newton, MA (Lim, Prasad, Salimy, Melnic, and Bedair).
Introduction: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is increasingly favored in clinical practice due to its favorable long-term survival rates, positive clinical outcomes, and expedited recovery. Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) remain a formidable complication in knee arthroplasty, and guidelines for the management are limited. This study aims to assess the failure rates of débridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) in UKAs, providing insights into optimal treatment management and infection-free survival for PJI in this context.

Department of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Ministry of National Guard-Health Affairs (MNGHA), King Abdullah Specialist Children Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; King Abdullah International Medical Research Centre, King Abdulaziz Medical City, Ministry of National Guard-Health Affairs, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, King Abdulaziz Medical City (KAMC), MNGHA, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Necrotizing fasciitis is a potentially life-threatening infection that can lead to rapid muscular and fascial necrosis, often resulting in sepsis. In addition to the rapid disease progression, diagnosing this disease in children can be challenging as they cannot accurately communicate their symptoms. Spontaneous necrotizing fasciitis secondary to Clostridial infection has rarely been described in the literature but occurs in neutropenic patients with significant morbidity and mortality from myonecrosis and gas gangrene.
