Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a multifactorial illness of unknown etiology with considerable social and economic impact. To investigate a putative genetic predisposition to ME/CFS we conducted genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis to identify possible variants. 383 ME/CFS participants underwent DNA testing using the commercial company 23andMe.

- Conventional wastewater treatment plants struggle to fully eliminate emerging contaminants like pharmaceutical compounds, which may harm aquatic ecosystems.
- An advanced bio-oxidation process (ABOP) utilizing white-rot fungi was tested and showed high efficiency in degrading 12 pharmaceutical contaminants, with five compounds eliminated by 80-95% and six by 50-70%.
- The process not only effectively reduced organic and nutrient loads in the wastewater but also generated methane from fungal sludge, indicating its potential for sustainable wastewater treatment and energy recovery.
Objective: To evaluate the effects of induction of anesthesia with alfaxalone in alpacas.
Study Design: Prospective, randomized, crossover design.
Animals: Five healthy alpacas (96.
Objective: To evaluate the duration of effects on movement patterns of horses after sedation with equipotent doses of xylazine hydrochloride, detomidine hydrochloride, or romifidine hydrochloride and determine whether accelerometry can be used to quantify differences among drug treatments.
Animals: 6 healthy horses.
Procedures: Each horse was injected IV with saline (0.
