Visceral leishmaniasis in lung transplantation
Infection by intracellular microorganisms with a special geographic distribution, such as Leishmania spp, has been reported in a limited number of patients undergoing solid-organ transplant (SOT). No cases of Leishmania spp infection in lung transplant patients were found in a review of the literature.

Infectiousness in a Cohort of Brazilian Dogs: Why Culling Fails to Control Visceral Leishmaniasis in Areas of High Transmission [PDF]
The elimination of seropositive dogs in Brazil has been used to control zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis but with little success. To elucidate the reasons for this, the infectiousness of 50 sentinel dogs exposed to natural Leishmania chagasi infection was

Evaluation of a New Recombinant K39 Rapid Diagnostic Test for Sudanese Visceral Leishmaniasis. [PDF]
A new rK39 rapid diagnostic dipstick test (DiaMed-IT-Leish) was compared with aspiration and a direct agglutination test (DAT) for diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in 201 parasitologically confirmed cases, 133 endemic controls, and in 356 ...

Developments in the treatment of visceral leishmaniasis
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is one of the most neglected parasitic diseases causing large scale mortality and morbidity among the poorest of the poor in the Indian subcontinent and Africa.This review aims to describe the potential and the (lack of) current impact of newly developed treatments on the control of VL.

Visceral theories without assumptions [PDF]
Let $T$ be a theory with a definable topology. $T$ is t-minimal in the sense of Mathews if every definable set in one variable has finite boundary. If $T$ is t-minimal, we show that there is a good dimension theory for definable sets, satisfying properties similar to dp-rank in dp-minimal theories, with one key exception: the dimension of ...

Application of Single-cell Deep Learning in Elucidating the Mapping Relationship Between Visceral and Body Surface Inflammatory Patterns [PDF]
As a system of integrated homeostasis, life is susceptible to disruptions by visceral inflammation, which can disturb internal environment equilibrium. The role of body-spread subcutaneous fascia (scFascia) in this process is poorly understood. In the rat model of Salmonella-induced dysentery, scRNA-seq of scFascia and deep-learning analysis revealed ...
