Prevalence of Intestinal Parasitic Infections and Associated Factors Among Rural Ghanaian School Children: A Cross‐Sectional Study in Tokuroano, Krachi East Municipality

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Over 63% of schoolchildren in rural Ghana's Tokuroano area had intestinal parasitic infections, mainly Ascaris, Hookworm, and Giardia. Poor sanitation, unsafe water, and poor hygiene were key risks. Protective factors included home‐cooked meals and health education. Integrated deworming, sanitation, and education programs are urgently needed to address

Identifying Drugs Associated With Parkinson's Disease Risk Using Machine Learning

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 138, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Machine learning (ML)–based methods have been proposed as a potential approach for identifying candidate drugs to be repurposed as disease‐modifying treatments for Parkinson's disease (PD). We applied an ML‐based signal detection method to identify drugs associated with PD and evaluated the method's generalizability.

Derivatization of Rosmarinic Acid Enhances its in vitro Antitumor, Antimicrobial and Antiprotozoal Properties

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
On its own, rosmarinic acid possesses multiple biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, cardioprotective and antitumor properties, and these are the consequence of its ROS scavenging and inhibitory effect on inflammation.

Equine protozoal myeloencephalitis—Presentation and progression

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 132-134, March 2026.
Summary Equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM) remains one of the most frequently diagnosed neurological disorders of horses in North America, caused primarily by Sarcocystis neurona and less commonly Neospora hughesi. The clinical presentation is highly variable due to multifocal involvement of both grey and white matter, with asymmetric ataxia and ...

Management of Haws Syndrome in Cats With Gastrointestinal Diet: A Case Series

open access: yesVeterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Haws syndrome (HS) in cats is characterized by bilateral protrusion of the third eyelid and ptosis, often accompanied by gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms such as diarrhea. Emerging evidence suggests disruption of the gut‐brain axis, linked to GI microbiota dysbiosis, may play a role in HS development.

Higher‐Level Structural Classification of Pseudomonas Cyclic Lipopeptides through Their Bioactive Conformation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 12, 27 February 2026.
Solution structures of a series of cyclic lipodepsipeptides from Pseudomonas reveal that these specialized metabolites adopt left‐handed alpha helical conformations of only two types, being either ‘stapled’ or ‘catch‐pole’ helix. The particular modular distribution of the biosynthetic gene clusters is found to determine the extent of their conserved ...
