Waste Management Policies, Practices, and Public Health Outcomes in Developing Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Unsanitary waste practices in developing countries increase disease risks by 2.1–3.1 times. This review demonstrates that integrating waste pickers, enforcing policies, and investing in circular systems can reduce health burdens by 30–50%, offering a clear path toward sustainable urban health.

Nonclassical MHC‐I Molecules: Emerging Therapeutic Targets in Next‐Generation Immunotherapy

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Immunotherapies dependent on classical MHC‐I molecules face significant challenges, including extreme polymorphism and frequent downregulation in pathological conditions. This review discusses how nonclassical MHC‐I molecules (HLA‐E, HLA‐F, HLA‐G, CD1, MR1) may potentially circumvent these limitations through restricted genetic diversity, stable ...

Urban malaria vector biology.

open access: yesThe Indian journal of medical research, 1997
One of the main reasons for the set-back in the urban malaria control programme is the peculiar biobehaviour of the principal urban malaria vector Anopheles stephensi. Certain relevant facts such as incrimination as the vector of malaria, sibling or biological species, resting habitat, manlanding behaviour, seasonal prevalence, blood meal analysis ...

Resource Availability Overrides Predator Presence in Mosquito Oviposition Habitat Selection

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 5, Page 424-435, May 2026.
Gravid Culex quinquefasciatus balance predation risk against resource availability when selecting oviposition sites. In outdoor mesocosms, we factorially manipulated sugarcane jaggery (resource) and notonectid predators (adult vs. nymph; caged vs. free‐swimming) across 2 years.
