Insect‐specific viruses used in biocontrol of mosquito‐borne diseases

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Insect‐specific RNA viruses (ISRVs) are involved in a wide range of families including Flaviviridae, Bunyaviridae, Negeviruses, Togaviridae, Reoviridae, Mesoniviridae, and Rhabdoviridae, which cannot infect vertebrates, including humans. However, ISRVs can infect and replicate in mosquitoes, interfering with the replication of mosquito‐borne viruses ...

CRISPR‐Based Programmable Nucleic Acid‐Binding Protein Technology Can Specifically Detect Fatal Tropical Disease‐Causing Pathogens

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Diagnostic approaches capable of ultrasensitive pathogen detection from low‐volume clinical samples, running without any sophisticated instrument and laboratory setup, are easily field‐deployable, inexpensive, and rapid, and are considered ideal for monitoring disease progression and surveillance. However, standard pathogen detection methods, including

Prevalence and Factors Associated with Acute Kidney Injury in Sub‐Saharan African Adults: A Review of the Current Literature

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex condition that can occur in both community and hospital settings and has many aetiologies. These aetiologies may be infectious, toxic, surgical, or related to the different management methods. Although it is a major public health problem worldwide, it must be emphasised that both its incidence and mortality rate ...
