Article Synopsis
  • Bovine babesiosis, a disease caused by a parasite carried by ticks, poses a global threat to cattle, highlighting the need for new vaccines.
  • Researchers identified immune-subdominant (ISD) antigens, specifically rRAP-1 NT and rRRA, which elicited lower antibody responses compared to dominant antigens in previously protected cattle.
  • Vaccination of cattle with rRRA and rRAP-1 NT showed promising results, as most immunized animals developed strong immune responses and experienced a delay in sickness symptoms when exposed to the parasite, indicating the potential for these ISD antigens in developing future vaccines.

Objective: This meta-analysis reviewed the existing literature on attentional biases towards emotional stimuli measured with eye-tracking methodologies in individuals with chronic pain.

Method: Eighteen relevant studies (n = 1331 participants) were identified through three electronic databases: PubMed, PsycInfo, and Scopus. A multilevel random-effects meta-analysis was conducted by using the standardized mean difference between gaze variables for emotional and neutral stimuli with Hedge's correction as the effect size (ES).

Graphene oxide (GO) is a very attractive material for use in a vast number of applications. However, before its widespread use, it is important to consider potential issues related to environmental safety to support its safe application. The aim of this study was to investigate effects on fish (rainbow trout) following GO exposure.

Herein, we combined different bioinformatics tools and databases (BV-BRC, ResFinder, RAST, and KmerResistance) to perform a prediction of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the genomic sequences of 107 Corynebacterium striatum isolates for which trustable antimicrobial susceptibility (AST) phenotypes could be retrieved. Then, the reliabilities of the AMR predictions were evaluated by different metrics: area under the ROC curve (AUC); Major Error Rates (MERs) and Very Major Error Rates (VMERs); Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC); F1-Score; and Accuracy. Out of 15 genes that were reliably detected in the C.
