Intensive mycological surveys in southern Benin focused on species of (Pleosporales) resulted in the collection and sequencing of numerous specimens on dead plant debris of different hosts. Majority of the collections belonged to the monomorphic species , except for two specimens of a hitherto unknown species, which is introduced as . The fungus was collected on dead twig of still attached to the tree and dead peduncle of .

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how serum levels of minerals and phosphate relate to overall and cardiovascular death rates, especially in patients with varying kidney functions.
  • Low levels of sodium and iron were linked to worse kidney performance and higher death risks, while higher zinc levels correlated with lower risks.
  • Those with kidney functions below 60 mL/min faced a fourfold increase in mortality risk, emphasizing the need for regular monitoring of serum minerals and kidney health in cardiovascular patients.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study aimed to assess the predictive power of coronary artery calcification (CAC) genetic risk scores (GRSs) for coronary artery disease (CAD), suggesting existing GRSs may overlook important genetic factors related to intermediate phenotypes like CAC.
  • - Researchers analyzed data from three different studies involving a total of 3,535 participants, comparing CAC GRSs to traditional cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and a broader CAD GRS constructed from 1.7 million genetic variants.
  • - Results indicated that CAC GRS is significantly linked to CAD across multiple cohorts and provides additional predictive value beyond traditional risk factors, enhancing risk assessment and precision in predicting CAD.

This study presents the synthesis and characterization of a series of 13 novel acetamides. These were subjected to Ellman's assay to determine the efficacy of the AChE and BChE inhibitors. Finally, we report their antioxidant activity as an alternative approach for the search for drugs to treat AD.
