A new clearwing moth species, Toleria vietnamica sp. nov. from Ba Bể National Park, Bẳc Kan Province, North Vietnam is described and illustrated. An annotated catalogue of Asian members of the tribe Cissuvorini is added to this paper. The catalogue contains the following information: the references to the original descriptions, information on name-bearing types, complete bibliographies of the presented taxa, distribution and available data on host plants. The type series of the new species is deposited in the collection of National Museum of Nature and Science, Tsukuba (formerly Natural Science Museum Tokyo).

Kobuviruses (family , genus ) are enteric viruses that infect a wide range of both human and animal hosts. Much of the evolutionary history of kobuviruses remains elusive, largely due to limited screening in wildlife. Bats have been implicated as major sources of virulent zoonoses, including coronaviruses, henipaviruses, and filoviruses, though much of the bat virome still remains uncharacterized.

Introduction: Due to the recent advent of gene-targeted retinal therapies, the clinical value of high-yield genetic testing for inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) has increased considerably. However, diagnostic yield is limited by the reported patient populations in allele frequency databases. This study aimed to determine the effect of race and ethnicity on diagnostic yield in IRDs.

In the United States kidney allocation system, HLA antigen-level matching has been shown to cause ethnic disparities and thus, has been de-emphasised. However, priority points are still awarded for antigen-level zero-ABDR matching, zero-DR matching and one-DR matching.

Background: Breast cancer has been the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women in Taiwan since 2003. While genetic variants play a significant role in the elevated risk of breast cancer, their implications have been less explored within Asian populations. Variant-based polygenic risk scores (PRS) have emerged as valuable tools for assessing the likelihood of developing breast cancer.

Article Synopsis
- * Their database includes detailed records of over 8,800 neurosurgeons, highlighting a majority male demographic (92.96%) and notable diversity among ethnic backgrounds, while also emphasizing the historical impact of figures like Harvey W. Cushing.
- * The project promotes inclusivity in neurosurgical education by recognizing institutions that are actively enhancing diversity among neurosurgeons, ultimately contributing to a richer and more connected neurosurgery community.
