AI Article Synopsis
- The study analyzes the virome, or the virus community, found in the surface waters of the Small Aral Sea.
- It employs shotgun metagenomic sequencing to capture both RNA and DNA viruses present in this environment.
- This research provides insights into the diversity and composition of viral populations in a unique ecological setting.
Article Abstract
Here, we present a virome analysis of the surface waters of the Small Aral Sea. In this case, shotgun metagenomic sequencing of the RNA and DNA virus community was used.

Background: Multimorbidity poses a global challenge to healthcare delivery. This study aimed to describe the prevalence of multimorbidity, common disease combinations and outcomes in a contemporary cohort of patients undergoing major abdominal surgery.
Methods: This was a pre-planned analysis of a prospective, multicentre, international study investigating cardiovascular complications after major abdominal surgery conducted in 446 hospitals in 29 countries across Europe.

Cardiovascular complications after major surgery are associated with increases in morbidity and mortality. There is confusion over definitions of cardiac injury or complications, and variability in the assessment and management of patients. This international prospective cohort study aimed to define the incidence and timing of these complications and to investigate their impact on 30-day all-cause mortality.

The development of an across-country genomic evaluation scheme is a promising alternative for enlarging reference populations and successfully implementing genomic selection in small ruminant populations. However, the feasibility of such evaluations depends on the genetic similarity among the populations, and therefore, high connectedness and high genetic correlations between the traits recorded in different countries or populations are needed. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of performing an across-country genomic evaluation for milk production and type traits in Alpine and Saanen goats from Canada, France, Italy, and Switzerland.

Article Synopsis
- Desertification and microplastic pollution are significant environmental challenges that affect ecosystems and human health in dry areas, particularly in Central Asia's Amu Darya-Aral Sea basin.
- A study found microplastics in soil samples across a 1000 km area, with quantities ranging from 182 to 17,841 items per kg, and certain polymers like polyurethane and silicone resin being most prevalent.
- Microplastics were more abundant in deeper soils (20-50 cm) compared to surface layers, suggesting that desertification and human activities such as grazing are key contributors to the increase and distribution of microplastics in these drylands.
