Among the cultivated crop species, the economically and culturally important grapevine plays host to the greatest number of distinctly characterized viruses. A critical component of the management and containment of these viral diseases in grapevine is both the identification of infected vines and the characterization of new pathogens. Next-generation high-throughput sequencing technologies, i.

This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluate human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence, genotype distribution, and associations with cervicovaginal microbiota and cytokine profiles among South African women, where cervical cancer ranks as the second most common cancer. PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science were searched for studies on HPV infection up to 21 September 2024. The pooled prevalence was estimated using a random-effects model, with subgroup analyses by province, sample type, and HIV status.

Mass-spectrometry-based proteomics frequently utilizes label-free quantification strategies due to their cost-effectiveness, methodological simplicity, and capability to identify large numbers of proteins within a single analytical run. Despite these advantages, the prevalence of missing values (MV), which can impact up to 50% of the data matrix, poses a significant challenge by reducing the accuracy, reproducibility, and interpretability of the results. Consequently, effective handling of missing values is crucial for reliable quantitative analysis in proteomic studies.

Cardio-renal syndrome (CRS) is a complex condition involving bidirectional dysfunction of the heart and kidneys, in which the failure of one organ exacerbates failure in the other. Traditional pharmacologic treatments are often insufficient to manage the hemodynamic and neurohormonal abnormalities underlying CRS, especially in cases resistant to standard therapies. Device-based therapies have emerged as a promising adjunct or alternative approach, offering targeted intervention to relieve congestion, improve renal perfusion, and modulate hemodynamics.

Current guidelines recommend systematic screening for rheumatic diseases (RDs), including antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), in patients with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). However, these recommendations are based on limited evidence, as data on the prevalence of RD in this specific population remain scarce. In particular, the impact of the recent update to the ACR/EULAR classification criteria for APS on the prevalence of RD among RPL patients has yet to be clarified.
