The nature and extent of mucosal alterations in 30 consecutive surgical specimens removed for urothelial neoplasia were evaluated by systematic mapping. The findings correlated with pertinent pathological, cytological and clinical data. Generally, the grade of the principal neoplasm paralleled the degree of epithelial disturbance in the grossly normal urothelium, high grade carcinomas being associated consistently with severe changes and low grade cancers with hyperplasia only. Cytological studies reflected accurately the grade of the principal neoplasm, and the presence of concomitant contiguous and remote mucosal abnormalities.

Malaria Research Group (MaRch), Family Medicine and Population Health Department, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Global Health Institute, University of Antwerp, Antwerp, Belgium.

The Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016-2030 targets eliminating malaria from at least 35 countries and reducing case incidence by 90% globally. The importation of parasites due to human mobilization poses a significant obstacle to achieve malaria elimination as it can undermine the effectiveness of local interventions. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of parasite importation is essential to support control efforts and advance progress toward elimination.

Computational approaches can provide details of molecular mechanisms in a crowded environment inside cells. Protein docking predicts stable configurations of molecular complexes, which correspond to deep energy minima. Systematic docking approaches, such as those based on fast Fourier transform (FFT), also map the entire intermolecular energy landscape by determining the position and depth of the full spectrum of the energy minima.

Background/objectives: High fiber (34-36 g/day) diets are recommended during pregnancy due to inverse associations with constipation and adverse pregnancy health outcomes, including pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes. However, the mechanism for this protective effect is poorly defined. Fiber may be protective due to its impact on the composition and function of specific bacteria within the pregnancy gut microbiome.
