(Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is a global invasive pest attacking soft-skinned fruit. The specialist larval parasitoid wasp, (Ihering), was recently approved in Europe and the United States for classical biological control releases against . Rearing methods are essential for supporting innundative releases but current methods using fresh fruit are costly and susceptible to variation in host quality.

A digital twin is a virtual model of a real-world system that updates in real-time. In healthcare, digital twins are gaining popularity for monitoring activities like diet, physical activity, and sleep. However, their application in predicting serious conditions such as heart attacks, brain strokes and cancers remains under investigation, with current research showing limited accuracy in such predictions.

Background/objectives: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease developing and progressing in the presence of risk factors including hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, and chronic inflammation, among others. Atherosclerosis commonly precipitates as ischemic events, transient ischemic attacks, and myocardial infarction. Saturated fatty acids are risk factors; however, their association with epigenetics in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis is not clearly understood.

Background: Although the number of studies reporting war-induced effects on the health of the Ukrainian population has been growing, there are still little data on assessing patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) during the war. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of war on T2D patients' health to define key risk factors promoting disease progression.
Methods: A survey covering various aspects of T2D patients' experience and glycemic control data was conducted from June 2022 to February 2024.

Pest attacks, especially by , are a factor affecting sugarcane production. As the pest's life habits make chemical control difficult, efforts are focused on finding integrated management alternatives. It is therefore essential to study the biology of , using artificial diets for rearing the insect in the laboratory.
