Background: has developed resistance to almost all the antimalarial drugs currently in use. This resistance has been and remains one of the greatest threats to the control and elimination of malaria. The use of molecular markers of resistance to monitor the emergence and spread of antimalarial drug-resistant parasite strains has proved highly effective.

Background: The treatment and control of malaria in Africa is challenged by drug resistance, including transporter, folate pathway, and PfK13 mutations that mediate resistance to aminoquinolines, antifolates, and artemisinins, respectively. Characterization of drug susceptibility informs optimal control strategies.

Methods: We characterized ex vivo susceptibilities to nine drugs of isolates collected from individuals presenting with uncomplicated falciparum malaria in eastern (2019-2024) and northern (2021-2024) Uganda using a growth inhibition assay and the dihydroartemisinin (DHA) ring survival assay (RSA).

Background: In preliminary research and literature review, we identified a potential link between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lipid metabolism. Therefore, this study employed Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the potential causal connection between blood lipids and COPD.

Materials And Methods: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) on COPD was conducted, encompassing a total of 112,583 European participants from the MRC-IEU.

Background: While previous studies have explored the associations and causalities among platelet count (PC), mean platelet volume (MPV), and erectile dysfunction (ED), further investigations are needed to clarify these relationships using advanced methodologies and analyzing specific populations.

Aim: To investigate the associations and causalities among PC, MPV, and ED using observational study and Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.

Methods: A total of 114 patients with ED and 158 healthy control participants underwent a fasting blood draw to test for PC and MPV along with a comprehensive laboratory examination.
