Host‐Driven Genetic Diversity of Leptospira in the Americas: A Continental Perspective

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Leptospira is a genetically diverse genus of spirochetes comprising over 68 species, including several pathogenic taxa such as L. interrogans, L. santarosai, L. noguchii, and L. weilii. These bacteria infect a wide range of vertebrates, especially mammals, with infected animals serving as renal carriers that excrete the pathogen through urine.

Chemometric Methods Applied to Infrared and Raman Spectroscopy for Arboviruses Diagnosis: A Systematic Review With Meta‐Analysis

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 6, Issue 2, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Arboviruses such as dengue, Zika, chikungunya and yellow fever share similar clinical manifestations, making differential diagnosis challenging, particularly in endemic regions with viral co‐circulation. Conventional laboratory methods present important limitations, including cross‐reactivity and reliance on specialized infrastructure. In this

Rapid‐Onset Drug‐Induced Liver Injury Following Amoxicillin‐Clavulanate: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Drug‐Induced Liver Injury (DILI) is a rare but potentially serious adverse effect of many commonly used medications. DILI is a diagnosis of exclusion and requires a high index of suspicion. Amoxicillin‐Clavulanate (A‐C) is a widely prescribed antibiotic known to be one of the leading causes of idiosyncratic DILI.
