Article Abstract

Gastric fundic gland polyps (FGPs) are common non-adenomatous gastric polyps arising from normal fundic mucosa without () infection. Although systemic FGPs associated with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) often have dysplasia, there are few reports of dysplasia occurring in sporadic FGPs, especially when detected by magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging (ME-NBI). We experienced two cases of adenocarcinoma occurring in sporadic FGPs, and their ME-NBI findings were very useful for differentiating FGP with cancer from non-dysplastic FGP. A 68-year-old man and a 63-year-old woman were referred to our institution for medical checkup. was negative in both patients. Endoscopic examination revealed a small reddish polypoid lesion on the anterior wall of the upper gastric body and several FGPs. ME-NBI showed an irregular microvascular architecture composed of closed loop- or open loop-type vascular components, plus an irregular microsurface structure composed of oval-type surface components which was different from that of FGPs. FAP was denied because of the absence of colon polyps and no familial history of FAP. Pathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma occurring in sporadic FGP.

Pathological Processes Among Content Creators on Social Media: Scoping Review.

JMIR Public Health Surveill

September 2025

Public Health Research Group, Department of Community Nursing, Preventive Medicine and Public Health and History of Science, University of Alicante, CIBER of Epidemiology and Public Health, Alicante, Spain.

Background: Content creators (CCs), like any other worker, are exposed to various occupational hazards that can affect their physical, mental, and social well-being, with psychosocial and ergonomic risks being particularly relevant. The combination of prolonged work hours, sedentary lifestyles, excessive public scrutiny, and often job insecurity and unpredictability (manifested as continuous connectivity and anticipation of sporadic tasks) presents a significant risk for the development of health issues.

Objective: This study reviews the scientific literature to identify the potential pathological processes affecting CCs on social media.

Down syndrome and a presenilin 2 variant: dual genetic risk of Alzheimer's disease.

Acta Neuropathol

September 2025

Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, University of Washington, 325 9th Ave, Seattle, WA, 98104, USA.

Early onset familial Alzheimer's disease (EOFAD) is rare compared to sporadic AD, but dominant variants in genes involved in amyloid β (Aβ) processing are well-described. One such variant is in the presenilin 2 (PSEN2) gene, N141I, and was first described in a family with Volga German descent. Separately, individuals with Down syndrome (DS) are also at risk for early onset AD, having an extra copy of an amyloid precursor protein gene.

Global epidemiology and molecular typing of Coxiella burnetii: A systematic review of Q fever in humans and animals.

Comp Immunol Microbiol Infect Dis

August 2025

Institute of Veterinary Sciences, University of Blida 1, Algeria; Laboratory of Physical Chemistry of Material Interfaces Applied to the Environment, Saâd Dahlab University, Blida 1, B.P. 270, Route de Soumaa, Blida 09000, Algeria. Electronic address:

This systematic review, conducted according to PRISMA guidelines, provides a comprehensive synthesis of epidemiological data on Coxiella burnetii, the causative agent of Q fever, in humans and animals worldwide. A total of 1321 publications were identified, of which 166 met the inclusion criteria. Q fever, first described in 1937 in Australian abattoir workers, remains a globally distributed zoonosis, with domestic ruminants (sheep, goats, cattle) serving as the primary reservoirs and sources of human infection.

Telomerase plays an important role in sustaining eukaryotic linear chromosomes, as elongation of telomeres is needed to counterbalance the shortening occurring in each replication round. Nevertheless, in telomerase-deficient cells, Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres (ALT) pathways can maintain telomeres by employing recombination-based mechanisms. In the budding yeast Naumovozyma castellii, effective activation of the ALT pathway leads to bypass of senescence and supports long-term growth.
