Estimating sharka dispersal function by stochastic spatiotemporal modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Plant viral diseases, and especially the ones transmitted by aerial vectors, can cause considerable yield losses. A good knowledge of the distances of spread is key to the understanding of disease dynamics. Exploratory approaches aiming at characterizing

The multifunctional protein CI of potyviruses plays interlinked and distinct roles in viral genome replication and intercellular movement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: The multifunctional cylindrical inclusion (CI) protein of potyviruses contains ATP binding and RNA helicase activities. As part of the viral replication complex, it assists viral genome replication, possibly by binding to RNA and unwinding ...

Assessing the Impact of Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting on Genital Inflammation and Microbiota Among Kenyan Female Sex Workers

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Problem Female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) is harmful to physical, mental, and reproductive health, though the effect of this practice on a woman's HIV susceptibility is poorly understood. Despite the known associations of FGM/C with short‐term vaginal epithelial damage, neither genital inflammation nor the genital microbiome have been ...

Public health reforms and the mortality decline in nineteenth‐century Italy

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 527-554, May 2026.
Abstract This study examines the impact of Italy's 1887–8 health reforms on mortality, contributing to the historical debate on the state's role in Europe's health transition. Leveraging event‐study‐style difference‐in‐differences approach, we assess the effectiveness of the Crispi–Pagliani reforms, which strengthened public health governance and ...

Why, Immunologically, Housing‐Related Fungi and Endotoxins (and Other Chronic Pro‐Inflammatory Stressors) Risk Latent Tuberculosis Reactivation, Severe Asthma, and Translocating and Invasive Infections in Indigenous Communities in Canada

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Type 1/M1/TH1 and type 3/M1/TH17 pro‐inflammatory switches are risks for latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) reactivation and ongoing infection transmission. This paper considers the heavy toll of reactivation risk in Indigenous communities in Canada and the chronic, everyday pro‐inflammatory stressors connected with type 3/M1/TH17 immune ...
