A survey was conducted to determine the status of (LTSV) in three high-yielding alfalfa regions in central Saudi Arabia (Riyadh, Qassim, and Hail) during 2014. Three hundred and eight symptomatic alfalfa, and seven samples were collected. DAS-ELISA indicated that 59 of these samples were positive to LTSV. Two isolates of LTSV from each region were selected for molecular studies. RT-PCR confirmed the presence of LTSV in the selected samples using a specific primer pair. Percentage identity and homology tree comparisons revealed that all Saudi isolates were more closely related to each other but also closely related to the Canadian isolate-JQ782213 (97.1-97.6%) and the New Zealand isolate-U31286 (95.8-97.1%). Comparing Saudi isolates of LTSV with ten other sobemoviruses based on the coat protein gene sequences confirmed the distant relationship between them. Eleven out of fourteen plant species used in host range study were positive to LTSV. This is the first time to document that , , , and are new host plant species for LTSV and that being a good propagative host for it.

Nutritional epidemiology aims to link dietary exposures to chronic disease, but the instruments for evaluating dietary intake are inaccurate. One way to identify unreliable data and the sources of errors is to compare estimated intakes with the total energy expenditure (TEE). In this study, we used the International Atomic Energy Agency Doubly Labeled Water Database to derive a predictive equation for TEE using 6,497 measures of TEE in individuals aged 4 to 96 years.

Prostaglandin E1 is a potent vasodilator that prevents the ductus arteriosus from closing. Its use in neonates with cyanotic heart defects has revolutionized the management of children with cyanotic heart defects. Although the use of prostaglandin E1 is a temporary solution, the establishment of dependable pulmonary blood flow is of paramount importance.

Introduction: Neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and epilepsy, pose significant diagnostic and treatment challenges due to their complexity and the gradual degeneration of central nervous system structures. This study introduces a deep learning framework designed to automate neuro-diagnostics, addressing the limitations of current manual interpretation methods, which are often time-consuming and prone to variability.
Methods: We propose a specialized deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) framework aimed at detecting and classifying neurological anomalies in MRI data.

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, immune-mediated neurological disorder in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the myelin sheath, affecting the communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
Objective: This study investigated the prophylactic use of peptide inhibitor of trans-endothelial migration (PEPITEM), a novel peptide, in alleviating experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a mouse model for Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
Methods: Female C57BL/6 female mice were assigned to the control, untreated EAE, or PEPITEM group.
