Unveiling Knowledge, Attitudes, and Preventive Practices Toward Dengue Among Residents of Rangpur City, Bangladesh: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]

Health Sci Rep
ABSTRACT Background Dengue (DG) is a growing global public health threat. Bangladesh continues to endure an increasing burden despite persistent vector‐control initiatives. Effective DG prevention relies on adequate community knowledge, favorable attitudes, and sustained protective practices.

Two‐Dimensional Materials For Lateral Flow Assays: A Critical Review of Functional Roles and Translational Challenges

VIEW, EarlyView.
2D nanosheets, with large surface area, excellent optical/electrical properties, and high specificity, combine with lateral flow assay strips to enable rapid, readable detection, boosting the strips’ development and applications. Abstract Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are widely used for point‐of‐care diagnostics, but their detection capability remains ...

One Yeast, Sixteen Synthetic Chromosomes, Infinite Possibilities

Yeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The evolution of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, from a genetically tractable model organism to a chassis for genome‐scale engineering represents one of the most influential trajectories in eukaryotic biology. The Synthetic Yeast Genome Project (Sc2.0) embodies the current height of this trajectory, having now delivered functional ...

Determining the efficacy of guppies and pyriproxyfen (Sumilarv® 2MR) combined with community engagement on dengue vectors in Cambodia: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Trials, 2017
Background Evidence on the effectiveness of low-cost, sustainable, biological vector-control tools for the Aedes mosquitoes is limited. Therefore, the purpose of this trial is to estimate the impact of guppy fish (guppies), in combination with the use of

Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Dengue retinochoroiditis

Annals of Saudi Medicine, 2012
Dengue is a mosquito-borne infection caused by a flavivirus. I describe the ocular findings observed in two patients infected with dengue virus who presented with acute onset of loss of vision preceded by febrile illness, malaise, generalized fatigue headache, and maculopapular rash.

Imperative for a health‐centred focus on climate change in radiology

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Summary Climate change negatively impacts individual and population‐level health through multiple pathways, including poor air quality, extreme heat and changes in infectious disease. These health effects will lead to higher health system and medical imaging utilisation.

Infection control in the brain and the eye

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...
