Ophidiomycosis Prevalence and Disease Ecology in a Natrix tessellata (Laurenti, 1768) Population From Northern Italy

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal pathogens pose a growing threat to vertebrate biodiversity. In snakes, Ophidiomyces ophidiicola (Oo) has garnered particular concern, although its impact in Europe remains poorly understood. We conducted a season‐long, standardized survey of dice snakes (Natrix tessellata) along the northern shore of Lake Como (Italy) to quantify Oo and

Incidence and Mortality Risks of Gastrointestinal Cancers During Working‐Age Period: Trends and Disparities in 204 Countries and Territories (1990–2021)

Med Research, EarlyView.
This comprehensive analysis of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer risk reveals that globally, one in 46 people will develop and one in 73 will die from GI cancers during working age (15–64 years), with 2021 incidence and mortality risks of 2.19% and 1.37%, respectively. Key findings demonstrate striking gender disparities, with males facing nearly double the
