A mathematical model for evaluating the role of trypanocide treatment of cattle in the epidemiology and control of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and T. b. gambiense sleeping sickness in Uganda

open access: yesParasite Epidemiology and Control, 2019
Background: Human and animal African trypanosomiases impose a large economic and health burden in their endemic regions. Large strides have been made in the control of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), yet these efforts have largely focused on the non-

Probing 5‐Nitroimidazole‐Triazole Hybrids as Potential Anti‐Kinetoplastid Agents: Synthesis and In Vitro Efficacy

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
A series of 5‐nitroimidazole‐1,2,3‐triazole hybrids was synthesised and evaluated for antitrypanosomatid activity to assess their potential as treatments against leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis. No notable in vitro activity against Leishmania was detected.

Computer-aided identification of Trypanosoma brucei uridine diphosphate galactose 4'-epimerase inhibitors : toward the development of novel therapies for African sleeping sickness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Trypanosoma brucei, the causative agent of human African trypanosomiasis, affects tens of thousands of sub-Saharan Africans. As current therapeutics are inadequate due to toxic side effects, drug resistance, and limited effectiveness, novel therapies are

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1456-1477, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular

Developing eradication investment cases for onchocerciasis, lymphatic filariasis, and human African trypanosomiasis : rationale and main challenges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
An EIC is essentially an economic composite assessment in the broader meaning of economics, addressing thus all three fundamental economics questions. An EIC in fact answers: 1) the ‘‘What’’ question, that compares remaining in control mode versus moving

Synthesis, Electrochemistry, In Vitro Antiprotozoal Efficacy and Mechanistic Study of Novel ‘Ferrantoin’ and Related Derivatives

open access: yesApplied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.
1,2‐Disubstituted ferrocene analogues bearing hydantoin or rhodanine synthons were synthesised and assessed for antitrypanosomatid activity. An antileishmanial early lead, analogue 23, acting through ROS generation and hence oxidative stress, was uncovered.

Estimates of the duration of the early and late stage of gambiense sleeping sickness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: The durations of untreated stage 1 (early stage, haemo-lymphatic) and stage 2 (late stage, meningo-encephalitic) human African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness) due to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense are poorly quantified, but key to ...

Geographical Variation in the Gut Microbiota of Duttaphrynus melanostictus: Relative Contributions of Environmental Filtering and Host Physiological Modulation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We examined gut microbial communities in 385 Asian common toads (Duttaphrynus melanostictus) from 14 populations across southern China, using 16S rRNA sequencing to assess the roles of climate, topography, and host traits in shaping community structure.

Interplay Between Infectious Diseases and the Endocrine System: An Overview and Clinical Insights

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
Infectious diseases can disrupt endocrine homeostasis through direct cytopathic injury, autoimmune dysregulation, or pathogen‐derived hormone‐like effects. Viruses and bacteria are the most frequent agents, whereas fungi and parasites contribute less commonly, even remaining clinically relevant, especially in the immunocompromised population.
