Persistent Hyperglycaemia and Transient Dysglycaemia in Tuberculosis: Evaluating the Bidirectional Interaction With Type‐2 Diabetes Mellitus and Clinical Outcomes

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 523-531, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Poor glycaemic control, indicated by a haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level of 7% or higher, increases the risk of active tuberculosis (TB) in patients with diabetes, while active TB can worsen glucose tolerance and insulin resistance, contributing to type‐2 diabetes mellitus (DM) progression.

Evidences That Host Genetic Background More Than the Environment Shapes the Microbiota of the Snail Bulinus truncatus, an Intermediate Host of Schistosoma Species

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbiota have emerged as fundamental regulators of host physiology, shaping both ecological interactions and evolutionary trajectories. Yet, the determinants of microbiota diversity and structure in wild populations—particularly the respective roles of host genetics and environmental context—are still poorly understood.

Land use gradients drive spatial variation in Lassa fever host communities in the Eastern Province of Sierra Leone

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 2, Page 296-312, February 2026.
As West Africa urbanises, the risk of Lassa fever may paradoxically decrease. We found the invasive house mouse, a dominant urban species, outcompetes and displaces the primary Lassa virus host. Considering these species interactions is critical for accurately predicting future zoonotic disease patterns.
