Association of Water, Sanitation, Hygiene and Animal Ownership With Relapse to Acute Malnutrition Among Children Aged 6–59 Months in Mali, South Sudan and Somalia: A Multi‐Site Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
Relapse rates post‐SAM treatment varied: 32% in Mali, 63% in South Sudan, 21% in Somalia. Diverse WASH and animal ownership factors were linked to relapse risk, differing by context. Some WASH conditions increased risk, whereas animal ownership was protective in Mali and South Sudan. No significant associations emerged in Somalia.

Molecular Characterization of the Group A Streptococcus Virulence‐Regulatory System FasBCAX

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
The Fas system of the group A Streptococcus is comprised of three proteins (FasBCA) and a small regulatory RNA (FasX), and it represses adhesin production while also promoting the production of the spreading factor streptokinase. Here, we analyze the Fas proteins to assess how they positively regulate FasX production.

Ticks and tick‐borne bacterial pathogens found on hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) on cattle in the Central River region of The Gambia

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
First detection of Ehrlichia minasensis, Anaplasma marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp. in cattle in The Gambia. Identification of four tick species, with Hyalomma marginatum being the most common. 15.6% of ticks tested positive for tick‐borne pathogens, including Ehrlichia spp., A. marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp.
