Background: Thrombocytopenia is a common laboratory abnormality in dogs, and numerous diseases have been associated with its development. Estimates for the sensitivity and specificity of the degree of reduction of platelet concentration for the diagnosis of primary immune-mediated thrombocytopenia (pITP) have not been reported.
Objectives: To report the prevalence of different causes of thrombocytopenia in dogs in the United Kingdom and to investigate the utility of platelet concentration to differentiate causes of thrombocytopenia.
Epidemics of tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD) caused by tomato yellow leaf curl-like begomoviruses (genus , family ) severely damage open field and protected tomato crops worldwide. Intensive application of insecticides against the whitefly vector is generally used as control strategy to reduce TYLCD impact. This practice, however, is frequently ineffective and has a negative impact on the environment and human health.

Aim: To determine the effect of a program of intestinal rehabilitation and early postoperative enteral nutrition on complications and clinical outcomes of patients underwent gastrointestinal surgery for cancer.
Tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD) causes severe damage to tomato crops worldwide. The deployment of host-plant resistance is the most desirable mean to control this disease. However, some concerns exist because it may place a selection pressure on the virus.

Article Synopsis
- Tomato yellow leaf curl (TYLC) is a serious disease impacting tomatoes globally, caused by begomovirus species, particularly TYLCSV and TYLCV, which affect crops in Southern Spain.
- Research revealed that pepper plants were infected with two strains of TYLCV, including a new virulent strain not documented in the region before.
- Experiments demonstrated that both TYLCV strains could infect pepper, common beans, and tomatoes, marking the first evidence of TYLCV affecting peppers and raising concerns about the disease's spread among crops.
