Comparison of lateral tail vein and retro-orbital venous sinus as routes of inoculation to study Group B streptococcal systemic infection by Jéssica da Conceição Mendonça, Stephen Lumsdaine, Lindsey R. Burcham

“…We show that retro-orbital venous sinus injection results in an initial increase in bacterial dissemination to the spleen and brain tissue of GBS-infected mice, while an increased bacterial burden was only detected in brain tissues at a later time point. Despite differences in initial dissemination and brain bacterial burden, we found that the route of infection did not significantly impact bacterial burden in the blood, kidney, spleen, heart, and lung tissues at experimental endpoints; and similarly did not impact animal health scores during infection; cytokine and proinflammatory protein abundance in the brain tissue; or overall animal survival. …”

Utilidad de la procalcitonina como biomarcador en cirugía cardiaca by Mario Castaño, Pasquale Maiorano, Laura Castillo, Blanca Meana, Belén Ramos, Elio Martín-Gutiérrez, Javier A. Gualis

“…Postoperative infection is a severe complication after cardiac surgery that increases morbimortality, which can be effectively reduced with early detection and appropriate treatment. Surgical trauma and cardiopulmonary bypass induced inflammation, as well as hypothermia or vasoconstrictors, stimulate the release of procalcitonin in uncomplicated postoperative patients, so its usefulness may be reduced. …”
