Infection control in the brain and the eye

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page e478-e490, August 2026.
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 ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Hematology and Serum Biochemistry Reference Intervals for Captive‐Born Owl Monkeys (Aotus nancymae): Effects of Age and Sex

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Owl monkeys (Aotus spp.) are a nocturnal nonhuman primate (NHP) native to central and South America that are used as infectious disease research models for human diseases, such as malaria and human immunodeficiency virus. Natural and infectious diseases may cause alterations in the hematology and serum biochemistry values, which ...

Potential Way to Develop Dengue Virus Detection in Aedes Larvae as an Alternative for Dengue Active Surveillance: A Literature Review

Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease
The burden of dengue has emerged as a serious public health issue due to its impact on morbidity, mortality, and economic burden. Existing surveillance systems are inadequate to provide the necessary data for the prompt and efficient control of dengue ...

Identification and Optimization of a Truncated Hs‐1‐Derived Antimicrobial Peptide for Enhanced Broad‐Spectrum Antiviral Activity

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Can a shorter peptide be a better antiviral? Structure‐guided optimization of the amphibian peptide Hs‐1 reveals a minimal α‐helical core that, after terminal modification, displays enhanced stability and submicromolar broad‐spectrum activity against enveloped viruses while maintaining a favorable safety profile. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) represent

Mechanistic‐Statistical Inference of Mosquito Dynamics From Mark‐Release‐Recapture Data

Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 3, July 2026.
Mark‐release‐recapture data contain valuable information on mosquito dispersal and survival, but this information is only indirectly observed through trap counts. We combine a mechanistic diffusion model with a statistical observation model to infer movement, mortality, and trap efficiency jointly.

First Reported Case of Fulminant Weil's Disease in South Khorasan, Eastern Iran: Diagnostic Challenges in a Non‐Endemic Region and Implications for Military Deployment

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Weil's disease should be considered even in non‐endemic regions when compatible clinical findings are accompanied by relevant exposure history. This case is epidemiologically notable as the first documented report from South Khorasan Province, highlighting the diagnostic challenges of leptospirosis in non‐endemic settings and the potential ...
