Onchocerciasis is not a major cause of blindness in two endemic villages in Sierra Leone.
BMC Res Notes
January 2025
Helen Keller International, New York, USA.
Objective: Sierra Leone, a country where onchocerciasis is endemic in 14 of the 16 districts, was the focus of our investigation. Despite 17 rounds of annual ivermectin treatment since 2005, a report circulated by a local politician indicated an increase in cases of suspected onchocerciasis-related vision impairment in two villages (Mangobo and Petifu) in Tonkolili district. In response, the National Neglected Tropical Disease Program conducted a comprehensive investigation.

Objectives: To describe the efficacy of anifrolumab vs. placebo in Japanese systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with low complement (C3 or C4) and/or who are positive for anti-double stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) antibodies.
Methods: This was a descriptive post hoc analysis of Japanese SLE patients with serological manifestations in the TULIP-2 trial who received either anifrolumab or placebo.
A simplified vaccination program elicits an immune response comparable to a complex standard vaccination program in commercial layers under field conditions.

Newcastle disease (ND) is a notifiable avian disease responsible for several panzootics, which has resulted in the establishment of mandatory vaccination programs against the virus in several countries including Denmark. This study compared the immune response elicited in layers by the standard vaccination program for ND of a Danish commercial egg production facility with a simplified version of the vaccination program. A commercial flock of layers was followed for 77 weeks from hatching to culling.

Malaria, a life-threatening disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, continues to pose a significant global health threat, with nearly 250 million infections and over 600 000 deaths reported annually by the WHO. Fighting malaria is particularly challenging partly due to the complex life cycle of the parasite. However, technological breakthroughs such as the development of the nucleoside-modified mRNA lipid nanoparticle (mRNA-LNP) vaccine platform, along with the discovery of novel conserved Plasmodium antigens such as the E140 protein, present new opportunities in malaria prevention.

The correlation between clinical, serological, and endoscopic findings and histological response after a gluten-free diet (GFD) is limited in adult celiac (CD) patients. This study aims to evaluate the effects of GFD on intraepithelial lymphocyte (IEL) localization by comparing the histopathological, clinical, serological, and endoscopic findings of adult CD patients. The patients (n = 131) were divided into three groups: those with good (CDgc) (n = 23) and poor (CDpc) (n = 21) GFD compliance and newly diagnosed ones (nCD) (n = 87).
