Prevalence of Malnutrition and Associated Factors Among School Children in Hawella Tula Rural District, Hawassa, Sidama Regional State, Ethiopia: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Malnutrition, including stunting, wasting, and underweight, remains a major public health problem among school‐age children in low‐resource settings. In Hawella Tula, a sub‐city of Hawassa, evidence on the magnitude and determinants of malnutrition is limited and not sufficiently context‐specific. This gap constrains the development

Synthesis and Antiparasitic Activities of New Organometallic Derivatives of the Benzimidazole Anthelmintic Drugs

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
Organometallic derivatization of existing drugs is a common strategy to look for new drug candidates. This work describes the derivatization of the benzimidazole anthelmintic scaffold, from the synthesis of the organometallic derivatives to the evaluation of their biological properties. It highlights a broad range of antiparasitic activities and leaves

Gastrointestinal Parasites in Free‐Ranging Saguinus ursulus From the Eastern Brazilian Amazon: First Report of Prosthenorchis sp.

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Enteroparasites were investigated in free‐ranging Saguinus ursulus from the eastern Brazilian Amazon. Parasites were detected in 76.5% (13/17) of capture events, with Prosthenorchis sp. most frequently detected (58.8%; 10/17). Animals showed good body condition and no clinical abnormalities.
