New information is given on the distribution of Cheilosia Meigen species (Diptera, Syrphidae) in Central Asia, together with a description of two new species. The new species, Cheilosia teneripilosa sp. nov. and Cheilosia vadimi sp. nov., belong to the subgenus Montanocheila Barkalov. Cheilosia teneripilosa differs from its close allies by a set of the following characters: eyes with long black hairs, legs of male completely black, abdomen predominantly with light hairs, superior lobe of hypandrium with a very small left process. Cheilosia vadimi is close to C. kirgizorum Peck, but differs by shorter hairs on the eyes and scutum, and a completely different shape of the superior lobe of the hypandrium. A revised key is given to the 'group C' species of Cheilosia from Central Asia (those with haired eyes, bare face and absence of strong bristles on scutellar hind margin). The descriptions of the new species are accompanied by drawings of the head and male genitalia.

Objective: Analysis of the effectiveness of the use of the drug Cytoflavin and the organization of the activities of nursing staff, within the framework of nursing care, in the complex therapy of patients with spinal cord injury (PSMT).
Material And Methods: Material and methods. 40 patients with PSMT due to a gunshot wound were examined, who were divided into two equal groups depending on the type of therapy performed: group 1 patients received the full volume of stage I medical rehabilitation (with additional use of neurodevelopmental techniques under the supervision of a Bobata department nurse) and standard drug therapy, including a course of intravenous Cytoflavin infusions followed by tablet form; group 2 patients received the full volume of stage I medical rehabilitation and standard drug therapy, but did not receive Cytoflavin.
Global, regional, and national burdens of intracerebral hemorrhage and its risk factors from 1990 to 2021.
Eur J Neurol

Department of Neurosurgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China.
Background And Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) burden in 204 countries and territories worldwide from 1990 to 2021, disaggregated by sex, age, and sociodemographic index (SDI) at the global, regional, and country levels.
Methods: Data from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) were used to calculate age-standardized prevalence (ASPR), incidence (ASIR), death (ASDR), and disability-adjusted life year (DALY) rates for ICH. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was used to assess time patterns.
Multiplex sample-sparing assay for detecting type-specific antibodies to Zika and dengue viruses: an assay development and validation study.

Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, NC, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Serology for dengue viruses (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) has been hindered by antibody cross-reactivity, which limits the utility of these tests for surveillance and assessment of sero-status. Our aim was to develop a multiplexed IgG-based assay with increased accuracy to assess the history of previous DENV and ZIKV infections.
Methods: We developed and assessed the analytical performance of a sample-sparing, multiplexed, microsphere-based serological assay using domain III of the envelope protein (EDIII) of DENV serotypes 1-4 and ZIKV, the most variable region between each virus.
Inclusion of Labor Migrants as a Potential Key Population for HIV: A Nationwide Study from Tajikistan.

Key populations are particularly vulnerable to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Nearly half of Tajikistan's gross domestic product (GDP) originates from labor migrant transfers. While not officially designated as a key population, over 300,000 migrants return to Tajikistan every year at increased risk for HIV due to absence or interruption of treatment, change in risky behaviors, and other factors.

Chronic Kidney Disease of Unknown Etiology (CKDu) is a worldwide hidden health threat that is associated with progressive loss of kidney functions without showing any initial symptoms until reaching end-stage renal failure, eventually leading to death. It is a growing health problem in Asia, Central America, Africa, and the Middle East, with identified hotspots. CKDu disease mainly affects young men in rural farming communities, while its etiology is not related to hypertension, kidney stones, diabetes, or other known causes.
