    Abstract Appendicitis remains one of the most common causes of abdominal pain across the world typically presenting with right iliac fossa pain, fever and nausea or vomiting. We describe an unusual case of appendicitis presenting as a soft tissue infection of the thigh, thereby causing a delayed diagnosis from presentation. We discuss the pathophysiological process behind soft tissue infections caused by appendicitis and highlight investigation and management strategies to ensure prompt treatment to reduce patient mortality.

    Abstract Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is a rare hereditary disease characterised by hyperpigmentation of the oral mucosa and gastrointestinal hamartomatous polyps. We report a case of a 27-year-old man who presented with a 5-day history of epigastric pain and rectal bleeding. Computed tomography suggested small bowel obstruction secondary to ileocolic intussusception and an incidental polyp in the mid jejunum. The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy during which right hemicolectomy and small bowel resection were performed. Histology from surgical specimens revealed Peutz-Jeghers polyps, one of which had low-grade dysplasia. This case emphasises that although rare, adults with PJS can present with intussusception. Also illustrated is the extremely rare possibility of concurrent polyps occurring in different parts of the bowel with neoplastic transformation. Intussusception is a challenge to diagnose because the presentation is often non-specific. Clinical history-taking and physical examination along with prompt axial imaging is important for the diagnosis. Careful examination of the bowel and polypectomy during laparotomy may prevent neoplastic transformation and short bowel syndrome.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to develop a simple and efficient laboratory rearing method for Neoleucinodes elegantalis (Guen., 1854) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae). To this end, seven bioassays were performed to evaluate the survival and reproductive characteristics of N. elegantalis for rearing populations in the laboratory with artificial and natural fruits. Neoleucinodes elegantalis was affected by the size and color of artificial fruits and the number of couples per cage. It was found that larvae fed with natural fruits of Solanum gilo had a greater survival rate and larval and pupal duration. Pupal survival rate did not differ between treatments. However, pupae of larvae fed S. gilo and S. melongena had the highest weights in both males and females. The highest percentage of fully formed adults was observed in the S. gilo treatment. The sex ratio did not differ between treatments, and the increase in larvae per fruit decreased larval survival, which was not observed in pupae. The results obtained in this study are significant because they reveal biological, ecological, and behavioral aspects of N. elengantalis and contribute to the expansion of techniques for mass rearing of this insect pest in the laboratory, which is essential for several other entomological studies.

    Abstract Chronic toxicity tests on adult and larval honey bees (Apis mellifera) can require the use of dietary additives (solvents, emulsifiers, adjuvants and viscosifier agents) when the active ingredient of plant protection products cannot be dissolved or does not remain stable and homogeneous within the test diets. Acetone is the widely used and accepted solvent allowed within the international regulatory guidelines, but it can be ineffective in keeping certain compounds in solution and can cause toxicity to adults and larvae. In this publication, we present an evaluation of alternative additives in adult and larval diets. Six dietary additives including five solvents (ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, propylene glycol and triethylene glycol) and a viscosifier agent (xanthan gum) at five concentrations along with a negative control and a solvent control (acetone) were investigated at seven laboratories. The safe levels for bees were determined for each of the additives used in the 10-day chronic adult and 22-day chronic larval tests. In the 10-day chronic adult study, ethanol and isopropanol were found to be safe at concentrations ≤ 5.0 %, while xanthan gum can be reliably used at concentrations ≤ 0.1 %. Greater variability across laboratories was observed for N-propanol, propylene glycol, and triethylene glycol and these agents may cause mortality when added to diets at concentrations above 0.25-0.5 %. The safe levels of additives to larval diet in the 22-day chronic larval test had a greater variability and were generally lower than what were observed for adult diet. Our results do not recommend the inclusion of ethanol or n-propanol into the larval diet, and isopropanol, propylene glycol, and triethylene glycol may cause mortality at concentrations above 0.25-0.5 %. Safe levels for xanthan gum were more variable than what was observed for adults, but it can be used reliably at concentrations ≤ 0.05 %. Our analyses conclude that several additives can be integrated successfully in honey bee laboratory bioassays at levels that cause low mortality to adults and larvae.
