The First exploratory spatial distribution analysis of tuberculosis and associated factors in Tonala, Mexico by Alejandro Escobar-Gutierrez, Armando Martinez-Guarneros, Gustavo Mora-Aguilera, Carlos Arturo Vazquez-Chacon, Gerardo Acevedo-Sanchez, Manuel Sandoval-Díaz, Juan Carlos Villanueva-Arias, Natividad Ayala-Chavira, Maria Elena Vargas-Amado, Ikuri Alvarez-Maya

“…Most of the cases reported during the observation period were male patients, and most cases primarily had lung involvement; however, there were quite a few cases with lymph node and intestinal disease. Conclusion: Our findings show that TB cases are essentially located in areas close to the city of Guadalajara and that most TB cases were pulmonary cases spread throughout the whole jurisdiction. …”

Mitigation of endemic GI-tract pathogen-mediated inflammation through development of multimodal treatment regimen and its impact on SIV acquisition in rhesus macaques. by Rachele M Bochart, Kathleen Busman-Sahay, Stephen Bondoc, David W Morrow, Alexandra M Ortiz, Christine M Fennessey, Miranda B Fischer, Oriene Shiel, Tonya Swanson, Christine M Shriver-Munsch, Hugh B Crank, Kimberly M Armantrout, Aaron M Barber-Axthelm, Charlotte Langner, Cassandra R Moats, Caralyn S Labriola, Rhonda MacAllister, Michael K Axthelm, Jason M Brenchley, Brandon F Keele, Jacob D Estes, Scott G Hansen, Jeremy V Smedley

“…Treatment combined with expanded practices resulted in successful maintenance of rhesus macaques (RM) free of common EPs, with no evidence of overt microbiota diversity loss or dysbiosis and instead resulted in a more defined luminal microbiota across study subjects. Creation of a GI pathogen free (GPF) status resulted in improved colonic mucosal barrier function (histologically, reduced colonic MPO+, and reduced pan-bacterial 16s rRNA in the MLN), reduced local and systemic innate and adaptive inflammation with reduction of colonic Mx1 and pSTAT1, decreased intermediate (CD14+CD16+) and non-classical monocytes (CD14-CD16+), reduced populations of peripheral dendritic cells, Ki-67+ and CD38+ CD4+ T cells, Ki-67+IgG+, and Ki-67+IgD+ B cells indicating lower levels of background inflammation in the distal descending colon, draining mesenteric lymph nodes, and systemically in peripheral blood, spleen, and axillary lymph nodes. …”
