A multiplex assay to detect mosquito species, bloodmeal host source and Plasmodium in malaria vectors using Nanopore amplicon sequencing

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Insectary‐reared mosquitoes were simultaneously assessed for species identification, bloodmeal source analysis and Plasmodium detection, using a single multiplexed sequencing run on the MinION sequencing platform. The method was applied to 150 insectary‐reared mosquitoes, representing nine species blood‐fed with five vertebrate hosts and 40 samples for

Parenteral iron—Does it increase infection risk?

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) are prevalent conditions impacting various patient populations, both surgical and non‐surgical conditions. The advent of patient blood management (PBM) has promoted intravenous (IV) iron therapy as an alternative to oral iron and blood transfusions.

Strategies for Understanding and Reducing the Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium ovale Hypnozoite Reservoir in Papua New Guinean Children: A Randomised Placebo-Controlled Trial and Mathematical Model [PDF]

, 2015
The undetectable hypnozoite reservoir for relapsing Plasmodium vivax and P. ovale malarias presents a major challenge for malaria control and elimination in endemic countries.

The role of T cells in sepsis of distinct infectious aetiologies

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Pathogen‐specific sepsis induces mitochondrial dysfunction in T cells, leading to functional alterations. Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals subtype‐specific impairments involving reactive oxygen species accumulation, mtDNA damage, calcium dysregulation, and metabolic reprogramming.
