Utility of blood‐based Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen‐specific host biomarkers in differentiating between spinal tuberculosis and mechanical back pain: A proof‐of‐concept study

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
Spinal tuberculosis (TB) is a severe form of musculoskeletal TB whose diagnosis remains challenging and may be misinterpreted as mechanical back pain. Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen‐specific host blood protein biomarkers detectable in QuantiFERON supernatants may offer greater specificity to distinguish spinal TB from mechanical back pain, with ...

Integrated Hospital, Emergency Department, and Community Surveillance for Respiratory Viruses in Milan, Italy

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Respiratory virus circulation may vary across healthcare settings and age groups, potentially limiting the interpretability of surveillance based on a single source. In Milan, Italy, established community‐ and emergency department‐based systems coexist with hospital laboratory testing, but hospital ward‐level data are not routinely integrated.

The Potential Broader Complex Linked to the Key Cepheid SV Vul

The Astrophysical Journal
A new distance was established to the Cepheid SV Vul ( P  ≃ 45 ^d ) and its host cluster Alicante 13, and is tied in part to deeper UKIDSS-DR6 photometry and Gaia DR3 observations ( d  = 2.30 ± 0.13 kpc).

First Detection of Radio Emission Associated with a Classical Cepheid

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
We report the detection of 15 GHz radio continuum emission associated with the classical Cepheid variable star δ Cephei ( δ Cep) based on observations with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array.

The evolution of the Galactic nuclear bulge traced by Cepheid variable stars [PDF]

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2012
The Galactic nuclear bulge hosts significant populations of young stars, within a few hundred parsecs around the Galactic Centre, unlike the more extended bulge. Recently, we discovered classical Cepheid variable stars (hereinafter Cepheids) in the Galactic nuclear bulge.

The star RR Lyr and the Cepheid variables in the era of the space photometry revolution [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The long-term behaviours of the pulsation and Blazhko periods of RR Lyr are investigated by means of Kepler and ground-based observations. The difficulties in detecting additional modes in the Cepheids monitored with CoRoT are discussed.

Effectiveness of Influenza Vaccines and Duration of Protection Against Hospitalisation During the 2024/25 Season in Northern Ireland, UK

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 20, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Seasonal influenza causes substantial morbidity and hospitalisation each year. We estimated influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) against laboratory‐confirmed influenza‐associated hospitalisation among patients in Northern Ireland (NI) during the 2024/25 influenza season.

Classification of Periodic Variable Stars from TESS

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The number of known periodic variable stars has increased rapidly in recent years. As an all-sky transit survey, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) plays an important role in detecting low-amplitude variable stars.

Real‐world progression‐free survival and overall survival in patients with HR+/HER2− advanced breast cancer treated in first‐line with ribociclib, endocrine monotherapy or chemotherapy: Results from the observational RIBANNA study

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 1, Page 210-223, 1 July 2026.
What's New? The CDK4/6 inhibitor ribociclib in combination with an endocrine‐based therapy has demonstrated significant progression‐free and overall survival benefits in patients with advanced/metastatic HR+/HER2‐ breast cancer in the pivotal MONALEESA trials.

Fundamentalization of Periods for First- and Second-overtone Classical Cepheids

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Almost half of all classical Cepheids do not pulsate in fundamental mode, and nowadays, the fundamentalization of their higher-mode periods is frequently applied to increase the sample size in astrophysical investigations and allow for comparison with ...
