Rotavirus A in Domestic Pigs and Wild Boars: High Genetic Diversity and Interspecies Transmission.

Rotavirus A (RVA) is an important pathogen for porcine health. In comparison to humans, RVA in domestic animals and especially in wildlife is under researched. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence, genetic diversity, molecular epidemiology and interspecies transmission of RVA in domestic pigs and wild boars.

Analysis of Serbian Primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome Patients Confirmed a Strong Association Between Livedo Reticularis and Arterial Thrombosis: A National Cross-Sectional Cohort Study.

Background: Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is characterized by antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) associated with thrombosis (arterial and/or venous) and/or obstetrical manifestations. However, various manifestations, which are considered to be noncriteria manifestations, are frequently found in APS.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether noncriteria manifestations may be found more frequently in subjects with thrombotic and/or obstetrical APS ("criteria" manifestations) in a population of patients with primary APS (PAPS).

Assessment of Maxillary Molars Interradicular Septum Morphological Characteristics as Criteria for Ideal Immediate Implant Placement-The Advantages of Cone Beam Computed Tomography Analysis.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the interradicular septum bone morphometric characteristics using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images, as well as to establish quantitative shortcuts to allow clinicians to make a faster and more reliable plan for immediate implant placement in the maxillary molars area. This retrospective quantitative study was conducted on CBCT images obtained from 100 patients. The morphometric analysis of the maxillary molars region was based on the parameters obtained on the sagittal and axial slices.

A Remarkable Genetic Diversity of Rotavirus A Circulating in Red Fox Population in Croatia.

Rotaviruses (RV), especially (RVA), are globally recognized as pathogens causing neonatal diarrhea, but they also affect intensive animal farming. However, the knowledge on their significance in wildlife is rather limited. The aim of the study was to unveil the prevalence, molecular epidemiology, and genetic diversity of RVA strains circulating in the red fox () population in Croatia.
