Andes orthohantavirus (ANDV) is an important human pathogen causing hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) with a fatality rate of 30% in Chile. Around 60% of all cases have a severe clinical course, while the others have a mild clinical course. The main goal of this study was to understand if the genetic variation of patients is associated with the clinical course they develop after ANDV infection.

- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of using 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) and low-field intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) together in removing high-grade gliomas (HGGs) compared to using each method alone.
- Results showed no significant differences in the extent of tumor resection, complication rates, or patient outcomes among the groups using 5-ALA, iMRI, or both techniques during surgeries.
- Overall, the findings suggest that combining 5-ALA and iMRI for surgical guidance does not provide significant advantages over using them separately in high-grade glioma resections.
