Neglected Tropical Diseases and Female Infertility: Possible Pathophysiological Mechanisms
Battling female infertility has posed a global challenge, where neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are nonetheless a notable contributing factor. NTDs affect a variety of diseases, often of a chronic nature, which are often cited as some of the most lethal diseases operating against the most economically disadvantaged populations across the globe.

Mycobacterium leprae: pathogenic agent in leprosy. Discovery of new species Mycobacterium lepromatosis. Perspectives in research and diagnosis of leprosy [PDF]
Background: M. leprae was presumed as an aetiologic agent in DLL, without specific microbiologic studios in the past. The sequencing of the genome through genetic testing led to the discovery of a new species M. lepromatosis by Han et al.
