Plasma RANKL level is not a reliable marker to monitor the bone destruction in mice model of osteomyelitis
TL;DR: The RANKL levels in mice with S. aureus osteomyelitis are not correlated with colony growth or other markers of inflammation and not useful for monitoring the response to antimicrobial treatment during osteomyeelitis.
Imaging Pediatric Musculoskeletal Infection
TL;DR: This work presents the different types of imaging modalities with their respective advantages and disadvantages and also the imaging findings unique to pediatric patients.

TL;DR: Effective preventative interventions to avoid infection should include strict glycemic control, smoking cessation and vascular health, intensive podiatric care, offloading of high pressure locations, and debridement of wounds and calluses.

TL;DR: Under conditions of hypercholesterolemia the number of desquamated endothelial cells in the blood increases, and arterial remodeling is characterized by manifestations of hypertrophic-neoplastic remodeling in rats of pre-reproductive age, and in reproductive animals there were sclerotic and inflammatory changes.

TL;DR: The MR appearance of vertebral osteomyelitis in this study was characteristic, and MR was as accurate and sensitive as radionuclide scanning in the detection of osteomyalitis.

FDG PET of Infection and Inflammation
TL;DR: FDG PET will likely assume increasing importance in assessing FUO, spinal osteomyelitis, vasculitis, and sarcoidosis and may even become the radionuclide imaging procedure of choice in the evaluation of some or all of these pathologic conditions.

MR Imaging Findings in Spinal Infections: Rules or Myths?
TL;DR: Most MR Imaging criteria commonly used to diagnose disk infections offer good to excellent sensitivity, however, some of the classically described MR imaging criteria may not be observed in atypical manifestations of proven spinal infections.
