An All‐in‐One Metabarcoding Approach to Mosquito and Arbovirus Xenosurveillance

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has the potential to transform mosquito‐borne disease surveillance but remains under‐utilised. This study introduces a comprehensive multi‐loci metabarcoding‐based MX (molecular xenomonitoring) approach to mosquito and arbovirus surveillance, enabling parallel identification of mosquito vectors, circulating ...

When Hepatitis Masks Visceral Leishmaniasis: A Case of Secondary HLH in a Low‐Endemic Region

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL)–associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare but life‐threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome. Diagnosis is often challenging due to overlapping clinical features, especially in low‐endemic regions, where VL is not initially suspected.

Therapeutic Effect of Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) Root Extract on Experimental Cutaneous Leishmaniosis in a BALB/c Mouse Model

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) root extract shows potential in treating cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major. In a BALB/c mouse model, treatment significantly reduced wound size and parasite load while enhancing inflammatory markers IL‐1 and IL‐6. These results highlight barberry's therapeutic promise against leishmaniasis.
