KEYWORDS Summary Hospital outbreaks of group A streptococcal (GAS) infection can be devastating Group A streptococcus; and occasionally result in the death of previously well patients. Approximately one in ten cases Infection control; of severe GAS infection is healthcare-associated. This guidance, produced by a multidisciplin- Midwifery; ary working group, provides an evidence-based systematic approach to the investigation of sin- Disease outbreaks; gle cases or outbreaks of healthcare-associated GAS infection in acute care or maternity Great Britain settings. The guideline recommends that all cases of GAS infection potentially acquired in hospital or through contact with healthcare or maternity services should be investigated. Healthcare workers, the environment, and other patients are possible sources of transmission. Screening of epidemiologically linked healthcare workers should be considered for healthcare-associated cases of GAS infection where no alternative source is readily identified. Communal facilities, such as baths, bidets and showers, should be cleaned and decontaminated between all pa- tients especially on delivery suites, post-natal wards and other high risk areas. Continuous sur- veillance is required to identify outbreaks which arise over long periods of time. GAS isolates from in-patients, peri-partum patients, neonates, and post-operative wounds should be saved for six months to facilitate outbreak investigation. These guidelines do not cover diagnosis and treatment of GAS infection which should be discussed with an infection specialist. Crown Copyright

    Approach to the Patient With Presumed Cellulitis Daniela Kroshinsky, MD,* Marc E. Grossman, MD, FACP,† and Lindy P. Fox, MD‡ Dermatologists frequently are consulted in the evaluation and management of the patient with cellulitic-appearing skin. For routine cellulitis, the clinical presentation and patient symptoms are usually sufficient for an accurate diagnosis. However, when the clinical presentation is somewhat atypical, or if the patient fails to respond to appropriate therapy for cellulitis because of routine bacterial pathogens, the differential diagnosis should be rapidly expanded. We discuss the approach to the patient with presumed cellulitis, with an emphasis on the differential diagnosis of cellulitis in both the immunocompetent and immunucompromised patient.

Reduce, Refine, Replace: The Failure of the Three R's and the Future of Animal Experimentation DarianM Ibrahimt The debate in animal ethics is defined by those who advocate the regulation of animal use and those who advocate its aboli- tion.' The animal welfare approach, which focuses on regulating animal use, maintains that humans have an obligation to treat animals "humanely" but may use them for human purposes.2 The animal rights approach, which focuses on abolishing animal use, argues that animals have inherent moral value that is inconsis- tent with us treating them as property.3 The animal welfare approach is the dominant model of ani- mal advocacy in the United States.4 Animal experimentation provides a fertile ground for testing this model because a unique confluence of factors make experimentation appear susceptible to meaningful regulation.

Twelve skinks were autotomized and wound surface of tail smeared by young gecko saliva, adult gecko saliva, and human’s saliva twice per day and control. The morphological changes of the wound surface were observed. The angiogenesis response was observed in vitro using Chorioallantois Membrane (CAM) of the ninth day's chick embryos. Protein profile of gecko saliva analyzed with SDS-PAGE. Generally, treated wound showed a better healing. Young gecko saliva able to stimulate angiogenesis in wound healing stage of sun skink tail after autotomy. Saliva protein of young and adult Gecko differences was not only in the size (or density) but also in the number of the bands. The young and adult Gecko revealed a striking consistency of protein patterns, indicating a profound physiological stability of the whole saliva.

For these cases, scientists are searching for new therapeutic interventions, from which one of the most promising is the use of extracellular vesicles (EVs). Naturally, EV-based signalling takes part in all four wound healing phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation and remodelling. Such an extensive involvement of EVs suggests exploiting their action to modulate the impaired healing phase. Furthermore,

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe a large debt of gratitude to the many people who contributed to the completion of this dissertation. First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Marlene Zuk. Marlene, you always encouraged me to push myself and taught me to develop my own voice and mind. You were also a strong advocate for my research, and with your support I was inspired to reach beyond my comfort zone and take on new challenges that greatly contributed to my intellectual and personal growth. I would also like to thank Dr. Daphne Fairbairn for her help and guidance throughout my graduate career. Daphne, you gave me great insights into the life of an academic, and helped me learn to think critically and set high standards for myself. When my working space was jeopardized, you jumped in and offered your lab space to me. I am forever grateful to you for your support during this time, as I would not have been able to complete my experiments were it not for you. I consider both you and Marlene to be great role models.
