Benralizumab is an anti-IL-5 receptor alpha monoclonal antibody that induces the near-complete depletion of eosinophils. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of benralizumab in patients with severe eosinophilic asthma (SEA) over an extended 48-month follow-up period, offering one of the longest real-world perspectives available. This was a single-arm, retrospective, observational, multicenter study involving 123 SEA patients treated with benralizumab at a dosage of 30 mg every 4 weeks for the first 3 doses and then every 8 weeks.

This study aims to inform neurorehabilitation strategies for spatial attention disorders by investigating the impact of tDCS on the performance of healthy participants. Unlike prior research that focused on visual detection, we extended the investigation to visual search and visual imagery using computerized neuropsychological tests.

- The study investigated how yeast cell wall prebiotics and probiotics affect gut health, immune response, and growth in weaned piglets as alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters.
- Results showed that the feed conversion ratio (FCR) was significantly better in piglets on the yeast treatments compared to those receiving antibiotics, with the best performers being those on the yeast cell wall diet alone.
- The introduction of probiotics appeared to enhance levels of certain immune markers, while also altering gut microbiota composition, particularly increasing the presence of beneficial Lactobacillus species in the probiotic groups.
