Aetiological Fraction of Influenza, Respiratory Syncytial Virus and Other Respiratory Pathogens in Infants Aged < 1 Year Hospitalised With Respiratory and Non‐Respiratory Medical Illness in South Africa, 2016–2018

Influenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Understanding the contribution of pathogens to respiratory illness in infants is important to guide interventions. We assessed the aetiology of respiratory pathogens among infants hospitalised with respiratory and non‐respiratory illness. Methods We conducted an unmatched case–control study among infants aged < 1 year.

Illuminating Immunity: A Systematic Review of Immune Cell Autofluorescence

Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Immunophenotyping provides valuable prognostic and diagnostic information, but is technically complex and expensive. The assessment of autofluorescence is label‐free and provides complex information on cell identity. However, research on its application to immunophenotyping has been heterogenous.
