Life Course Malaria Exposure and SARS‐CoV‐2 Seroepidemiology in Ugandan Adolescents: A Longitudinal Study Nested in a Birth Cohort

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background COVID‐19 has had major global health impacts, yet reported morbidity and mortality have been lower in Africa despite serological evidence of widespread infection. Malaria has been proposed as a potential modifier of susceptibility to and outcomes of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Integrative Phosphoproteomic Profiling Reveals Stage‐Specific Signalling and Metabolism in Equine Melanocytic Neoplasm

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Equine melanocytic neoplasms (EMN) are aggressive tumours characterised by high metastatic potential and limited therapeutic options available. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their progression remain poorly understood. This study therefore presents the integrative phosphoproteomic analysis of EMN tissue, with the aim of ...

Immunoglobulin G Levels in Yemeni Preterm Newborns: Infant Factors Predominate

Reproductive, Female and Child Health, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background IgG levels in preterm infants play a crucial role in response to infection and inflammation. Infectious disease burden in the low‐income countries, such as Yemen, exacerbates the problem. The preterm infant's IgG sources are either maternal or fetal immune system.

First survey for detecting the presence of human herpesvirus 8 infection (HHV-8) in Maputo, Mozambique

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), is endemic in parts of the sub-Saharan, and KS has increased concomitantly with the HIV/AIDS epidemic. In Mozambique (MZ), no data concerning HHV-8 infection was available, thus
