Detection and Genomic Characterization of Novel Mammarenavirus in European Hedgehogs, Italy.

Mammarenaviruses are noteworthy zoonotic pathogens, and the main reservoirs are rodent species. We report the detection of a novel mammarenavirus in 6/183 (3.3%) in necropsied European hedgehogs (Erinaceus europaeus) collected in Italy.

Domestic Cat Hepadnavirus Infection in Iberian Lynxes.

We conducted a survey for domestic cat hepadnavirus, an analog of human hepatitis B virus, in the endangered felid species Iberian lynx. Results revealed specific antibodies in 32.3% of serum samples and DNA in 0.

Context changes retrieval of prospective outcomes during decision deliberation.

Foreseeing the future outcomes is the art of decision-making. Substantial evidence shows that, during choice deliberation, the brain can retrieve prospective decision outcomes. However, decisions are seldom made in a vacuum.

Identification of Recombinant Aichivirus D in Cattle, Italy.

Kobuviruses (KoVs) are a group of small, non-enveloped RNA viruses classified in the genus within the family, comprising Aichivirus species A to F. KoVs have been identified in humans and several mammals, including domestic ungulates. This study investigated the presence of KoVs in a collection of bovine stool samples ( = 38) obtained from animals with enteritis or without clinical signs.

Eculizumab in refractory myasthenia gravis: a real-world single-center experience.

Introduction: Immunosuppressive treatment is effective in most Myasthenia gravis patients, but 10-15% of patients areconsidered refractory due to inadequate response or intolerance to therapy. Eculizumab, a humanized monoclonalantibody directed against C5 complement protein, was approved in Italy to treat Ab-AchR generalized refractoryMG (rMG) in October 2022.

Aim: We aim to describe a real-world Italian experience in a population of refractory myasthenia gravis patients with oneyear follow up.
