Background: The Mauritian cynomolgus macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is widely used in biomedical research. Determining reference intervals for biochemical and haematological analytes provides an important tool for clinical diagnosis and pre-clinical research.
Methods: Blood samples from 736 Mauritian long-tailed macaques were analysed to determine reference intervals of 13 biochemical and 10 haematological analytes. The need for partitioning the reference interval between males and females was determined. To examine the variation associated with age, body weight and sex on the analytes, our correlating, multivariate data set was first reduced using principal component analysis, and then the effect of these characteristics on factor scores was examined using GLM analysis.
Results: Partitioning of reference intervals, based on sex, was recommended for albumin, alkaline phosphatase and mean corpuscular haemoglobin. Sex significantly influenced the concentration of lymphocytes, granulocytes and white blood cells.
Conclusion: These findings provide useful reference data for research involving Mauritian long-tailed macaques.

Department of Global Health, Emory Rollins School of Public Health, Atlanta, GA, United States.
Background: Orthohantaviruses (also known as hantaviruses) are pathogens, primarily transmitted by rodents, that can cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). In endemic regions of Kazakhstan, no confirmed HFRS cases were detected between 2020 and 2022 raising concerns about detection. Estimate antibody seroprevalence for hantaviruses and identify associated risk factors among high-risk adults in western Kazakhstan in 2023.

Background: The recurrence rate of bipolar disorder (BD) is relatively high. Assessing the risk of relapse in patients with BD can assist in identifying populations at high risk for recurrence, and early feasible interventions can improve patient' prognoses. Therefore, it is important to establish and validate predictive models for relapse risk in patients with BD.

Aims: Cardiac arrest is registered in the Danish National Patient Registry (DNPR) with the International Classification of Diseases 10 revision code I46. However, it does not distinguish between out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA). We validated an algorithm to identify cardiac arrest subtypes (out-of-hospital vs.

Center for Epidemiology and Research in POPulation Health (CERPOP), Inserm, Université de Toulouse III, Toulouse, France.
Background: Sexual and reproductive health issues in adolescents living with HIV (ALHIV) have been left behind in HIV care programs. ALHIV are at risk of unintended pregnancy which jeopardizes their socio-economic future, health outcomes and exposes their newborn to HIV transmission. A better understanding of these events is needed.
