Land‐Based Functional Rehabilitation Versus Aquatic Therapy on the Quality of Life of Individuals With Chronic Chikungunya: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Chikungunya may progress to a chronic phase marked by persistent pain and functional impairment, reducing the quality of life. Exercise‐based rehabilitation is essential, though comparisons between different modalities remain scarce. Exercises in an aquatic environment can be designed as a task‐oriented intervention that

Diagnostic utility of real-time RT-PCR for chikungunya virus detection in the acute phase of infection: a retrospective study

Annals of Medicine
Background Chikungunya fever is a viral disease spread by Aedes mosquitoes, reported in over 110 countries. In India, it was first detected in Kolkata in 1963 and is now widespread. Diagnosis often relies on detecting anti-chikungunya IgM antibodies, but

Small molecules as arthropod kinin receptor antagonists, feeding modulators, or novel mosquitocidal agents

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6842-6863, July 2026.
A two‐pronged screen of small molecules – (1) on recombinant kinin receptor and (2) through topical application – identifies kinin receptor antagonists, feeding behavior modulators, and new mosquitocidal molecules. Abstract BACKGROUND Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes are primary vectors for numerous human and animal pathogens and ...

Operationalising Environmental DNA (eDNA) Detection of Major Malaria Vector Species in Ghana

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The global landscape of vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) is shifting, driven by climate change, urbanisation and widespread habitat modification, requiring novel approaches to surveillance, prevention and control. To improve our capacity to respond to real‐time emergent VBD threats, this study undertook cross‐sectional sampling of suspected ...

Advancing Antiviral Design: Integrating Natural Products, Computation and Targeted Delivery

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 108, Issue 1, July 2026.
A stepwise translational framework linking natural‐product discovery, computational prioritisation, experimental validation, lead optimisation and targeted delivery is proposed to advance antiviral design. ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic highlighted the role of rapid viral mutation and global connectivity in accelerating viral emergence and spread ...

The Evolution of Knockdown Resistance: Genotypic and Phenotypic Insights Into Aedes aegypti Insecticide Resistance

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Insecticide resistance is a significant challenge for mosquito population control and disease prevention. This research investigated knockdown resistance (kdr) mutations V410L, V1016I, and F1534C in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to address crucial gaps in understanding insecticide resistance evolution and management.

Guideline for the Diagnosis and Management of Heritable IFNAR1 Deficiency in Oceania

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 62, Issue 7, Page 1113-1120, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive interferon alpha and beta receptor subunit 1 (IFNAR1) deficiency is a rare and heritable inborn error of immunity (IEI) predisposing individuals to severe and life‐threatening viral infections. It is more common in people of Western Polynesian ancestry, with estimates of around one in six thousand live births affected, due ...

Climatic, Socioecological and Environmental Determinants of Aedes spp. Dynamics at the Community Interface: A Systematic Review With Reflections From a One Health Perspective

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 7, Page 807-821, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Mosquitoes of the genus Aedes, including but not limited to Aedes aegypti , are major vectors of arboviruses such as dengue, Zika and other related diseases. Their global expansion is driven by climate change, globalisation, urbanisation and human mobility.

Residual risk of human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis C, and hepatitis B following implementation of sexual risk behavior‐based screening in Canada

Transfusion, Volume 66, Issue 7, Page 1265-1270, July 2026.
Abstract Background In 2022, Canadian Blood Services implemented a gender‐neutral sexual behavior‐based screening (SBBS) approach to donor deferral, replacing time‐based criteria targeting gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM) and female partners of gbMSM. We assessed the impact of this policy change on human immunodeficiency virus (

Epidemiological, virological and clinical characterization of a Dengue/Zika outbreak in the Caribbean region of Costa Rica 2017–2018

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
The increase in incidence and geographical expansion of viruses transmitted by the Aedes mosquitoes, such as dengue (DENV) and zika (ZIKV) in the Americas, represents a burden for healthcare systems in tropical and subtropical regions.
