() is an obligate, intracellular, neurotropic protozoan parasite. After primary infection, parasite undergoes stage conversion from fast-replicating tachyzoites to slow-replicating dormant bradyzoites, particularly in the brain, and persists for a lifetime of an individual. In this study, the impact of infection in individuals with psychological disorder, that is, major depressive disorder (MDD) has been studied.

Introduction: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a virus of the herpesviridae family. CMV infection is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised subjects such as hemodialysis patients and transplant recipients. The aim of our study was to determine the serological status of potential kidney recipients and donors in order to assess the risk of post-transplant CMV infection and disease.

Purpose: People in prison face a disproportionate risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), but there is a paucity of evidence on trends in STIs in prisons in England. This study aims to describe trends in chlamydia test-positivity and syphilis prevalence by using two different methodologies in prison settings.
Design/methodology/approach: This study used routinely collected chlamydia surveillance data reported by all primary diagnostic laboratories in England from 2018 to 2022 to identify tests undertaken in prisons.
Geospatial distribution of Hepatitis E seroprevalence in Nepal, 2021.

International Vaccine Institute, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Background: Hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes acute jaundice and poses an important public health problem in low- and middle-income countries. Limited surveillance capacity and suboptimal access to diagnostics leads to under-reporting of HEV infections in affected countries, including Nepal. Serum antibodies against HEV are indicative of past infection.

December 2024
University of California, San Francisco, CA, United States of America.
Background: Understanding COVID-19's impact on children is vital for public health policy, yet age-specific data is scarce, especially in Uganda. This study examines SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence and risk factors among Ugandan children at two timepoints, along with COVID-19-related knowledge and practices in households, including adult vaccination status.
Methods: Baseline surveys were conducted in 12 communities from April to May 2021 (post-Alpha wave) and follow-up surveys in 32 communities from November 2021 to March 2022 (Omicron wave).
