Department of Poultry Diseases, National Veterinary Research Institute, 24-100 Puławy, Poland.
Antimicrobial resistance is recognized worldwide as one of the greatest threats to human and animal health and the environment. To evaluate the resistance rate of biovar haemolytica, which contributes to bacteremia, oophoritis, ovarian follicle degeneration, salpingitis, decreased egg production, and increased mortality in hens, strains isolated from the reproductive tracts of layers were analyzed. The oviducts were taken from three hens from each of 10 flocks manifesting clinical signs related to laying.

Article Synopsis
- Fitz-Hugh-Curtis Syndrome (FHCS) is an inflammation linked to pelvic inflammatory disease caused by sexually transmitted infections, leading to symptoms like abdominal pain and possible liver capsule issues.
- A case study of a 22-year-old woman revealed her abdominal pain was misdiagnosed as advanced ovarian cancer, but mNGS testing revealed an infection with Chlamydia trachomatis in her ascitic fluid.
- The use of mNGS proved to be an effective method for diagnosing this rare condition, showing promise as a non-invasive technique for identifying pathogens with high accuracy.
Pelvic inflammatory disease and risk of borderline ovarian tumors: A national population-based case-control study in Sweden.

Department of Clinical Sciences, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Umeå University, Umeå, Sweden.
Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the link between pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and the risk of developing serous borderline ovarian tumors (BOT), suggesting that inflammation of the fallopian tubes may contribute to tumor formation.
- - Analyzing data from nearly 5,000 BOT cases and 45,000 controls in Sweden, the research found that women with a history of PID had a 48% higher risk of developing BOT, particularly serous tumors.
- - The findings reveal a dose-response relationship, indicating that more episodes of PID correlate with a greater risk of serous BOT, highlighting the need for further research on the biological mechanisms involved.

Article Synopsis
- APEC is a harmful bacteria that causes serious health issues in poultry, leading to major losses in the broiler industry.
- Removing certain genes from APEC strains significantly reduced their endotoxin levels, prompting the development of two vaccine prototypes: a mutant vaccine and a wild-type vaccine.
- The mutant vaccine proved to be safer and more effective, as it led to quicker recovery in chickens post-immunization and showed no lesions after 14 days, making it a promising option against APEC infections compared to the wild-type vaccine.
