Auricularia auricula-judae is an edible and medicinal fungus ranking fourth in production among the edible fungi cultivated worldwide. White villous disease is rampant in Northeast China; it infects the fruiting bodies of A. auricula-judae by forming a white mycelial layer on its ventral side. The disease not only causes an unacceptable morphological appearance and a poor-quality product, but it also significantly reduces the yield. In this study, based on fungal morphology, ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer sequences, identification of species-specific primers, and the pathogenicity of the mycelia and spores, 2 fungal pathogens were isolated and identified as Fusarium equiseti and F. sporotrichioides.

Background & Aims: The term "advanced adenoma" (AA) includes adenomas ≥1 cm, ones with villous histology or high-grade dysplasia (HGD), or polyps that may be heterogeneous for metachronous advanced neoplasia (AN) risk (AA and adenocarcinoma). We compared risk in individuals with 10- to 19-mm tubular adenomas (TAs) vs those with HGD, villous histology, and TAs ≥20 mm (modified AAs).
Methods: We used the New Hampshire Colonoscopy Registry to identify individuals having index colonoscopies and follow-up exams 12 months or longer.

Purpose: Adenocarcinoma in villous adenoma is a rare malignancy arising from adenomatous polyps with a high villous content. This study aims to identify the demographic, prognostic, and socioeconomic factors influencing overall survival using data sourced from the National Cancer Database (NCDB).
Methods: Patients diagnosed with adenocarcinoma in villous adenoma were identified from the NCDB between 2004 and 2020.
