Enterovirus 74 (EV-B74) has been associated with cases of acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) but it is not a commonly found enterovirus. In this work, we present the characterization of an EV-B74 detected from the serum sample of a one-year-old boy presenting with signs and symptoms clinically compatible with hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). This is the first report of EV-B74 in Brazil.

Background: Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SIONFH) is a universal hip articular disease and is very hard to perceive at an early stage. The understanding of the pathogenesis of SIONFH is still limited, and the identification of efficient diagnostic biomarkers is insufficient. This research aims to recognize and validate the latent exosome-related molecular signature in SIONFH diagnosis by employing bioinformatics to investigate exosome-related mechanisms in SIONFH.

Purpose: The childhood hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) sequelae cohort study (HNHFMDCS) is an ambispective cohort study of patients with HFMD based in Henan Province, China, consisting of patients treated in a key hospital for the diagnosis and treatment of HFMD in Henan Province. The study aims to investigate the long-term sequelae of HFMD survivors and to provide a comprehensive understanding of the potential harm caused by this infectious disease.
Participants: In the retrospective phase of the cohort study, children diagnosed with HFMD from January 2014 to January 2023 were included, and clinical and demographic information about the patients was collected through a self-developed questionnaire.

Purpose: To compare overall survival (OS), toxicity, and quality of life (QOL) in patients with metastatic gallbladder cancer receiving oral capecitabine (X) with best supportive care (BSC) and BSC alone.
Materials And Methods: Patients with metastatic gallbladder cancer and Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) ≥70 were accrued and assigned to either arm A or B. Assignment to these two arms was based on physician/patient discretion.

Background: The Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study (DPPOS) is an established cohort of aging persons (mean age 72 years) with prediabetes and diabetes with a mean of 23 (range 21-25) years of follow-up. DPPOS added neuropsychological testing using the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (NACC) Uniform Data Set (UDSv3) forms. Using the NACC UDS required implementing a standardized neurological examination across 25 US clinical sites, administered by project coordinators (PC).
