Characteristics and Risk Factors Associated With Hospitalization and Severe Disease in Patients Aged ≥ 60 Years With Human Metapneumovirus Infection Over Three Consecutive Seasons (2021–2024) in Valladolid, Spain. The VALLAVIRUS Study

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a respiratory pathogen often underestimated in the elderly. Although studies suggest it causes around 10% of respiratory hospitalizations in the United States, national and local data remain scarce.

Skin Microbiome Variation Among Hosts and Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis Infection in Hyla meridionalis and Pelophylax perezi

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is a key driver of global amphibian declines. The amphibian skin microbiome, which may include Bd‐inhibitory bacteria, plays a crucial role in defence against infection, influencing host susceptibility and disease outcome.
