IgA Antibodies Reveal Covert Infection With Mpox Virus in People Living With HIV in the Community: A Prospective Longitudinal Cohort Survey

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study identified covert infection of MPXV among people living with HIV and MPXV‐IgA was the effective indicator. The combined use of two antigen protein set of MPXV (B6R plus E8L and E8L plus H3L) yield IgA test results comparable to those obtained with the MPXV.

Public Health Implications of Latent Toxoplasmosis and Its Association With Type 2 Diabetes: A Case–Control Study in Qazvin, North‐Western Iran

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Toxoplasma gondii is a worldwide‐distributed zoonotic parasite, causing latent infections in humans. Increasing evidence has suggested a possible link between toxoplasmosis and diabetes mellitus (DM), though data from Iran are limited. This study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence of latent T.
