Genetic Diversity of Polymyxin Resistance Genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 2, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the genetic diversity and evolutionary mechanisms driving polymyxin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae, a critical priority pathogen. By analysing mgrB, phoPQ and pmrAB genes in susceptible (PM‐S) and resistant (PM‐R) populations through neutrality tests (Tajima D, Fu & Li's D) we uncovered polygenic adaptation and ...

Infrared Spectroscopy as a Promising Tool for Diagnosing and Typing Human Pathogenic Fungi

open access: yesMycoses, Volume 69, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Fungal infections are increasingly recognised as a global health challenge, responsible for millions of cases annually and substantial mortality, especially in immunocompromised individuals. Yet, the diagnosis of these infections remains notoriously difficult, often delayed by slow culture‐based methods or hindered by the high cost and ...

New Evidence of TLR4 and TLR9 Variants Influencing Parasitaemia and Symptoms of Plasmodium vivax Infection

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunogenetics, Volume 52, Issue 6, Page 371-378, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) induce the production of pro‐inflammatory cytokines and regulate the immune response to Plasmodium vivax infection. Genetic variants of TLRs are associated with susceptibility and severity of malaria in different populations. This study aimed to evaluate the association between polymorphisms in TLR1, TLR4, TLR7, TLR8,

Nirsevimab Effectiveness Against RSV‐Related Hospitalisations in Children Under 24 Months: A Test‐Negative Case–Control Study in Portugal, 2024–2025

open access: yesInfluenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, Volume 19, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT We assessed Nirsevimab effectiveness (NE) against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)‐related hospitalisation in eligible children (< 2 years) using a test‐negative case–control design within the VigiRSV network (weeks 43/2024 to 16/2025). Among 341 participants (median age: 2 months; 91.2% without known chronic condition), 137 (40.2%) tested ...

Automated identification of spotted‐fever tick vectors using convolutional neural networks

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 829-841, December 2025.
We evaluate the performance of convolutional neural networks (CNN) AlexNet, ResNet‐50 and MobileNetV2 for the automated identification of tick species capable of transmitting spotted fever. CNNs achieved accuracy rates of ~90% in identifying ticks and showed sensitivities of 59%–100% according to species, sex, position or image resolution.
