Lumpy Skin Disease in Pakistan

Pakistan Journal of Health Sciences, 2023
The lumpy skin disease virus, also known as LSDV, belongs to the family of Poxviridae and is responsible for lumpy skin disease (LSD). It is a transboundary infection that mainly affects cattle and water buffaloes.  Due to its capacity for transboundary transmission, endemic and sporadic outbreaks occur all over the globe, but particularly in Africa ...

Large language models unlock large text corpora in the search for data on medicinal plants and fungi

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Millions of people worldwide depend on plants and fungi for their healthcare needs, yet our understanding of which species are used medicinally—and how—remains fragmented and incomplete. As part of Kew's Plants for Health service, we developed a pipeline to mine large text corpora for information on natural products, initially focusing on the medicinal

Humidity Ramp Protocols Systematically Underestimate Human Heat Tolerance Limits

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Short dwell times in humidity‐ramp protocols (Δt/τ≪1 ${\Delta }t/\tau \mathit{\ll }1$) prevent human core temperature from reaching equilibrium, causing premature inflection points and systematic underestimation of critical environmental limits by ∼3°C–4°C.

Review: Lumpy Skin Disease

Journal of Veterinary Science & Technology, 2018
Lumpy skin disease, which is caused by lumpy skin disease virus, is among the major health problems affecting the livestock industry of most African countries. Skin lesions are the major sources of infection; although the virus is evacuated via different body secretions and excretions including semen.

Approaches to Next-Generation Capripoxvirus and Monkeypox Virus Vaccines

Viruses
Globally, there are two major poxvirus outbreaks: mpox, caused by the monkeypox virus, and lumpy skin disease, caused by the lumpy skin disease virus. While vaccines for both diseases exist, there is a need for improved vaccines.

Four‐dimensional immuno‐mechanobiomaterials: Dynamic material cues that program host response to prevent fibrosis and enable regeneration

VIEW, EarlyView.
Dynamic immuno‐mechanobiomaterials with time‐programmed mechanical adaptation orchestrate host responses through precise mechanotransduction and immune‐stromal regulation. These adaptive biomaterials minimize mechanical mismatch, attenuate the forign dy response and fibrosis, promote angiogenesis and controlled extracellular matrix remodeling, and ...

Mathematical model of the lumpy skin disease using Caputo fractional-order derivative via invariant point technique

Scientific Reports
The aim of this paper is to study the fractional model of Lumpy Skin Disease, aiming to enhance our understanding of this disease. Specifically, we employ the recently introduced Caputo–Fabrizio fractional (CFF) derivative to analyze the Lumpy Skin ...
