Two Cases of Primary Cold Agglutinin Disease Associated with Megaloblastic Anemia by Shinsaku Imashuku, Naoko Kudo, Katsushige Takagishi, Katsuyasu Saigo

“…Thus, the association of these hematological diseases may be incidental; however, given that CAD is an autoimmune disease which may show antibodies against intrinsic factor and gastric parietal cells, this association was thought to be probably not a coincidence. Clinicians should be aware of the possible simultaneous presence of autoimmune hemolytic/megaloblastic anemia in patients with primary CAD.…”

First review of recent records of sturgeons and paddlefishes (Acipenseriformes) in the Danube River basin in Slovenia by Marijan Govedič, Thomas Friedrich

“…The last sterlet in Slovenian rivers was captured in the Drava River in 2001, and even this individual had probably been released in Austria. The occurrence of sturgeons in Slovenian rivers in the last eighteen years does not seem to be connected with migration and revival of natural populations in the lower part of the Drava and Sava Rivers. …”
