Pharmacoecon Open
November 2024
Introduction: Haemophilia is a rare genetic bleeding disorder that leads to musculoskeletal complications. The high cost of haemophilia treatment necessitates a thorough evaluation of its economic burden. However, due to the difficulty of estimating direct non-medical, indirect, and intangible costs, studies often underestimate the actual economic burden of haemophilia.

- COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2, has a complicated relationship with dogs, as their lower susceptibility is linked to the differences in ACE2 receptors compared to humans.
- Studies show that dogs are less likely to spread COVID-19 due to low binding affinity between their ACE2 and the virus's spike protein.
- While dogs can potentially transmit the virus, the review emphasizes the importance of prevention and examines the possibility of using detection dogs to identify infected individuals through various samples.
Escherichia coli field isolates from calves were characterized and categorized into the most significant diarrheagenic pathotypes using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays with different specific primers. The used PCR systems were designed to detect sequences representing the group-specific virulence genes encoding fimbriae f5 (K99), Shiga toxins (stx and stx), heat-stable enterotoxins (st), heat-labile enterotoxins (lt), intimin (eae), hemolysin (hylA), and EAEC heat-stable enterotoxin (astA). In the present work, a total of 150 E.
