An urgent appendectomy led to a tentative diagnosis of Aspergillus appendicitis based on the histopathological findings of many fungal hyphal forms. Panfungal polymerase chain reaction using DNA extracted from the lesion determined the pathogen of Aspergillus niger. There was no evidence of invasive aspergillosis. During the prolonged anti-fungal therapy, he achieved a remission of leukemia and underwent the second hematopoietic cell transplantation. To our knowledge, Aspergillus appendicitis was reported to occur in 5 leukemia patients. Four of them survived after appendectomy and one died from intestinal perforation.

Traveler's diarrhea (TD) is the most common illness among people traveling from resource-rich regions to resource-limited regions, although the precise microbial etiology is unclear in many cases.

Stool specimens were prospectively collected from 106 consecutive patients with TD and 16 healthy controls without TD, and were tested using both the FilmArray gastrointestinal panel (BioFire Diagnostics) and conventional stool cultures.

The 106 patients had traveled to Southeast Asia (55 cases), South Asia (22 cases), Africa (11 cases), and East Asia (7 cases). Among the 106 specimens, 95 specimens (89.6%) were positive for pathogens during the FilmArray testing. The FilmArray testing also identified multiple pathogens in 75.8% of the specimens from positive cases. Conventional stool cultures only detected pathogens in 23.6% of the specimens.

The FilmArray gastrointestinal panel significantly improved the detection of enteropathogens and allowed for a rapid assessment of the TD's etiology. In addition, conventional stool cultures are likely to underestimate co-infections with multiple infectious pathogens.

Perianal and genital defects occur because of a vast etiology making the reconstruction of function and esthetics remain challenging. Depending on the extent of the defect, different techniques have been employed for coverage including skin grafts, local skin flaps, musculocutaneous flaps, and pedicled perforator flaps. The pedicled vertical posteromedial thigh (vPMT) flap is a new perforator flap that has rarely been employed for this kind of reconstruction. The purpose of this article is to focus on the vPMT perforator flap, which is mainly used as a propeller flap, for reconstructing the perianal and genital region as a feasible option in this area.

From July 2013 to December 2018, we treated twelve patients with extensive perianal and/or genital defects with 21 pedicled vPMT flaps. Three patients needed unilateral reconstruction, while 9 patients bilateral needed bilateral reconstruction. The location of the defects included the scrotal region (3 cases), the perianal region (8 cases), and the vulvar rity of the donor site. We believe that the vPMT flap could be an alternative option for the reconstruction of the perianal and genital region and could be inserted in the armamentarium of the reconstructive microsurgeon.
To examine the relationship between injuries and team success in professional cricket.

Prospective cohort analysis.

A prospective cohort of all match time-loss injuries and County Championship point tallies for nine seasons (from 2010 to 2018 inclusive) for all 18 First-Class County Cricket (FCCC) cricket teams in England and Wales. Two injury measures of match time-loss injury incidence and burden were assessed for within-team (linear mixed model on season-to-season changes) and between-team (correlation on differences averaged over all seasons) effects. County Championship league points tally was used as the measure of team success.

A moderate negative correlation was found between injury burden and team performance (r=-0.36; 90% CI -0.66 to 0.05; likely negative, P=0.15). A reduction in match injury incidence of 2 match time-loss injuries per 1000 days of play (90% CI 1.4-2.9, P=0.10) within a team, or a reduction in match injury burden of 75 days per 1000 days of play (90% CI 50-109, P=0.053) in any given season was associated with the smallest worthwhile change in County Championship points (+13 points) for Division 1, but not for Division 2.

Moderate reductions in injury burden are associated with potentially worthwhile effects on performance for a domestic cricket team in the County Championship Division 1.

This study aimed to ascertain if there is a defined pattern of injury related to the percentage of attained adult height and classify injuries according to maturity status bands.

Prospective cohort study.

From 1998-2019, 63 elite male soccer players of at least the U12 category from a Spanish LaLiga club's academy were followed until reaching their final height. Medical staff recorded injuries following the FIFA consensus and measured height 2-3 times per season. The percentage of adult height at which each injury occurred was calculated using the player's closest height to the injury and his final adult height. Injuries were classified in maturity bands, pre-peak-height-velocity (PHV) <88%, circa-PHV 88%-96%, and post-PHV >96%.

There were 509 injuries among the 63 players. Growth-related injuries occurred at a median (IQR) of 91.2% (86.7%-95.2%) of adult height, predominating in pre-PHV and PHV bands. Muscle injuries predominantly occurred at post-PHV, with 77.78% of those conditions occurring within that time frame and at 98.7% (96%-99.5%) of adult height. Likewise, knee and ankle joint/ligament injuries predominated at post-PHV (87% and 65% of total cases, respectively) occurring at 99.0% (97.9%-99.9%) and 98.4% (89.2%-99.4%) of adult height, respectively.

Injuries follow a specific pattern according to the percentage of adult height.
