Synergistic antiviral activity against human adenovirus through combination of itraconazole and brincidofovir

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1578-1601, April 2026.
Background and Purpose Human adenovirus (HAdV) causes respiratory or gastrointestinal tract infections depending on the virus subtype. While HAdV infections are generally self‐limiting in immunocompetent people, they can result in significant morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised adults and children.

Healthcare Development, Relaxed Natural Selection, and COVID‐19 Infection Rates: An Evolutionary Population‐Level Analysis

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Evolutionary principles offer critical insights into pandemic dynamics but have been largely overlooked in contemporary responses to COVID‐19. Relaxed natural selection, increased global mobility, and lifestyle mismatches have contributed to human vulnerability to infectious diseases in modern societies.

Methods Based on Polynomial Chaos for Quadratic Delay Differential Equations With Random Parameters

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider systems of delay differential equations (DDEs), including a single delay and a quadratic right‐hand side. In a system, parameters are replaced by random variables to perform an uncertainty quantification. Thus the solution of the DDEs becomes a random process, which can be represented by a series of the generalised polynomial chaos.

Global distribution and contexts of interactions between humans and non‐human primates: A systematic review

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 551-568, March 2026.
Abstract Understanding the frequency and socio‐ecological drivers of contacts between humans and non‐human primates (NHPs) is crucial for enhancing coexistence that favours NHP conservation, while limiting negative consequences such as aggressions and cross‐species disease transmission.
