Recombinant LPG3 Protein From Leishmania chagasi as an Antigen for the Diagnosis of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a human neglected tropical disease in which dogs participate as reservoirs of the etiological agent Leishmania chagasi. The identification of infected dogs is important to the control of VL, and recombinant proteins are strong antigen candidates for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) serodiagnosis. In this work,

Chagas disease in Canadian blood donors: 15 years of selective testing

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Chagas disease (Trypanosoma cruzi), prevalent in Mexico, Central and South America, can be transfusion‐transmitted. Selective serological testing of blood donors was implemented over 15 years ago. We describe the trends in infections and characteristics of donors selected for testing.

R1 Prognostic Significance of T‐Wave Amplitude Variability for Adverse Cardiovascular Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
In this systematic review and meta‐analysis of seven studies involving 1366 patients, elevated T‐wave amplitude variability (TAV) was associated with a 2.5‐fold higher risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. These findings support TAV as a marker of ventricular repolarization instability for long‐term risk stratification.

Targeted modulation of IGFL2‐AS1 reveals its translational potential in cervical adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1643-1660, June 2026.
Cervical adenocarcinoma patients face worse outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma counterparts despite similar treatment. The identification of IGFL2‐AS1's differential expression provides a molecular basis for distinguishing these histotypes, paving the way for personalized therapies and improved survival in vulnerable populations globally.

Genomic Changes of Chagas Disease Vector, South America

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
We analyzed the main karyologic changes that have occurred during the dispersion of Triatoma infestans, the main vector of Chagas disease. We identified two allopatric groups, named Andean and non-Andean. The Andean specimens present C-heterochromatic blocks in most of their 22 chromosomes, whereas non-Andean specimens have only 4-7 autosomes with C ...

In Silico Design and Computational Characterization of Novel Chimeric Multiepitope Antigens for Mpox Serosurveillance: An Immunoinformatics Approach

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The Monkeypox (Mpox) virus is a zoonotic Orthopoxvirus with a global outbreak that began in 2022, with more than 132,000 confirmed cases and 1500 deaths across over 128 countries. The pandemic preparedness pipeline emphasizes the importance of diagnostic surveillance of pathogens in at‐risk populations to monitor ...

Modeling Chagas disease in Chile: From vector to congenital transmission

Biosystems, 2017
Chagaś disease is a human health problem in Latin America. It is highly prevalent in northern Chile between the Arica-Parinacota and Coquimbo regions, with reported incidence of 3-11/100000 inhabitants and mortality of 0.3-0.4/100000. The interruption of vector transmission was reported in 1999 by means of the elimination of the primary vector ...

Control of Pyrethroid-Resistant Chagas Disease Vectors with Entomopathogenic Fungi

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2009
Triatoma infestans-mediated transmission of Tripanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, remains as a major health issue in southern South America. Key factors of T. infestans prevalence in specific areas of the geographic Gran Chaco region-which extends through northern Argentina, Bolivia, and Paraguay-are both recurrent reinfestations ...
