Background: Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is proposed for mosquito species identification. The absence of public repositories sharing mass spectra and open-source data analysis pipelines for fingerprint matching to mosquito species limits the widespread use of this technology. The objective of this study was to develop a free open-source data analysis pipeline for Anopheles species identification with MALDI-TOF MS.

The elderly population in China faces a significant burden of influenza, but the influenza vaccination rate among this group remains far below international recommended standards due to factors such as the underdeveloped adult immunization service system, high vaccination costs, and insufficient awareness among both the elderly and healthcare professionals. It is recommended that China implement a free or reimbursement policy influenza vaccination for elderly in border regions, improve the adult immunization service system, enhance the awareness of healthcare professionals and the elderly, and strengthen the research and post-vaccination monitoring of vaccines tailored to the elderly population to increase the influenza vaccination rate among the elderly.

Background: The 1-3-7 approach to eliminate malaria was first implemented in China in 2012. It has since been expanded to multiple countries, but no systematic review has examined the evidence for its use. A systematic review was conducted aiming to evaluate the impact and effectiveness of the strategy and identify key challenges and variations in its implementation across different countries.

The central nervous system (CNS) is increasingly recognized as a critical modulator in the oncogenesis of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), with interactions between cancer and local neuronal circuits frequently leading to epilepsy; however, the relative contributions of these factors remain unclear. Here, we report a coordinated intratumor shift among distinct cancer subtypes within progenitor-like families of epileptic GBM patients, revealing an accumulation of oligodendrocyte progenitor (OPC)-like subpopulations at the cancer-neuron interface along with heightened electrical signaling activity in the surrounding neuronal networks. The OPC-like cells associated with epilepsy express KCND2, which encodes the voltage-gated K channel K4.
