Congenital Zika Syndrome: Insights from Integrated Proteomic and Metabolomic Analysis.

In this study, we investigated the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the pathogenesis of Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS). Previous studies have highlighted the role of EVs in intercellular communication and the modulation of biological processes during viral infections, motivating our in-depth analysis. Our objective was to identify specific molecular signatures in the EVs of patients with CZS, focusing on their potential as biomarkers and on cellular pathways affected by the infection.

Thromboembolic Risk in Juvenile Dermatomyositis Patients Treated With Intravenous Immunoglobulin.

This single-institution retrospective cohort study evaluates the risk of thromboembolic events (TE) in patients with juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg). We found no difference in the occurrence of TE in JDM patients treated with IVIg as compared to those without IVIg exposure; both cohorts had no TEs. Patients in both JDM cohorts had matched levels of other clotting risk factors, such as periods of limited mobility and hormonal contraceptive use.

Association between contextual factors and vaccine coverage against human papilomavirus in adolescents in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil: global spatial regressions.

This study aimed to identify the associations between socioeconomic factors, the social environment, and human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine coverage among adolescents in the state of Minas Gerais (MG), Brazil. This ecological study utilized secondary data from 853 municipalities in MG, covering female adolescents from 2014 to 2022 and male adolescents from 2017 to 2022, as provided by the information system of the National Immunization Program. Spatial statistical analysis was conducted to assess spatial dependence and identify spatial clusters of municipalities with high and low HPV vaccine coverage.

Synergistic Pain-Reducing Effects of (Chronic and Chronic In) and Cannabidiol-Rich Extracts in Experimental Pain Models.

The present study aimed to evaluate the potential synergy between pharmaceutical formulations containing L. (granulated-CHR OR and injectable nanodispersion-CHR IN) in conjunction with a cannabidiol (CBD)-rich extract of L. (CSE) on experimental pain models in Wistar rats.

Clinical and Cytogenetic Impact of Maternal Balanced Double Translocation: A Familial Case of 15q11.2 Microduplication and Microdeletion Syndromes with Genetic Counselling Implications.

Background: Balanced chromosomal translocations occur in approximately 0.16 to 0.20% of live births.
