Streptococcus gordonii: an emerging pathogen as a cause of infective endocarditis?
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a serious illness that affects the endocardial surfaces of heart valves, the mural endocardium, and septal defects. It can cause severe complications, such as abscesses, aneurysms, heart failure, renal failure, and sepsis. Right-sided endocarditis is more prevalent in persons who inject drugs, accounting for 10% of all instances of IE. Streptococcus gordonii is a gram-positive bacterium that colonizes the oral mucosa, skin, and gastrointestinal tract. It is an opportunistic pathogen and a rare cause of IE. We describe a case of S. gordonii IE in a 47-year-old man who injected drugs and had a history of prior tricuspid valve IE treated with tricuspid valve replacement and mitral annuloplasty

Cultivating a science literate society: Academic librarians’ role and approach for promoting science literacy in undergraduate students
This paper explores the critical role librarians play in promoting science literacy among undergraduate students. By examining the interconnected nature of information literacy, science literacy, and digital literacy in today’s digital landscape, this paper addresses the unique information needs of students and the implications of supporting them in becoming science-literate citizens. As information literacy instructors, librarians are essential facilitators of knowledge and learning in academic contexts. Practical recommendations are provided for librarians to design and deliver effective science literacy instruction.

Using rapid and repeatable side scan sonar methods for a second assessment of the Shortnose Sturgeon (Acipenser brevirostrum) population in the Saint John River, New Brunswick, Canada
Population estimates are a key component of fisheries management, particularly when assessing species of concern. However, the time and effort required to conduct those estimates logistically limits their frequency. To facilitate assessment of Shortnose Sturgeon (Acipenser brevirostrum; SNS) which are a species of concern in the Saint John River, New Brunswick, Canada, a combined side-scan sonar and acoustic telemetry-based method was employed to enumerate SNS within high density winter aggregations. During this study 12,005 SNS were enumerated in one main winter aggregation and 2,186 SNS were counted within a second in the Kennebecasis Bay. Winter residency patterns determined from acoustic tracking of 18 tagged SNS over 8 years (2015/16-2022/23) indicated that these two aggregations represented on average 74.3% of the overall population suggesting that the total Saint John River population was ~19,100 SNS > 40 cm FL in winter 2022/23. Although the development of more in depth, robust, and repeated assessments are needed to verify this estimate of abundance and size classes, we conclude that the abundance of SNS in the Saint John River has probably remained stable since the earliest population estimate completed in 1977
