Mayo Clinic Laboratory and pathology research roundup: September 12

The research roundup provides an overview of the past week’s research from Mayo Clinic Laboratories consultants, including featured abstracts and a complete list of published studies and reviews.
Featured Abstract
Activated mast cells in periprosthetic joint infection-associated tissue.
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication of total joint arthroplasty surgery. Increased densities of activated mast cells have been predicted to be present in PJI compared to non-infectious arthroplasty failure based on analysis of transcriptomic data, but their presence in PJI-associated periprosthetic tissues has not been visually confirmed.
